Environmental Report

Environmental Management

The LINTEC Group has established, operates and is constantly improving its environmental management system, and is carrying out a variety of environmental protection initiatives.

Environmental Management System

Based on the LINTEC Group Quality, Environmental and Business Continuity Policy, the LINTEC Group proactively works on conservation of the global environment while also acquiring ISO 14001 certifications and undergoing third-party verifications.

Internal Audit

In order to ensure proper implementation of environmental management systems in connection with its business activities, the LINTEC Group conducts internal audits and mutual audits of its business sites, and runs the PDCA cycle for improvement with respect to legal compliance and system operations.
Findings from internal and external audits are studied with respect to the situation of occurrence, background, and essence of findings, and resultant insights are applied to other sites to improve related activities across the company.

Environmental Education

We provide environmental education courses for a range of purposes, including increasing understanding of the environmental management system. As part of our environmental education, we also post environmental news on various topics, such as ISO 14001, chemical substances management, energy conservation, and health and safety, on the LINTEC Environment and Safety Information intranet page.

Environmental Compliance

Twice a year, each site performs environmental legal compliance evaluations and submits the results to the corporate EMS secretariat for detailed checking. By using results of compliance evaluations, internal audits, mutual audits, external reviews (continuity and maintenance), and management reviews, we work to improve our environmental performance while also taking precautionary steps by creating improvement opportunities and conducting corrective measures.

Material Flow

With respect to energy and resource inputs, production volume, environmental impact on local air and water quality, and others, we work to measure the amount of activity based on data collected from LINTEC and its group companies in Japan.
