Kagami: By working toward "stable supply and making reliable products wエキストラベットh low energy consumption widely available," which we state in our Basic CSR Policy, we will contribute to the realization of a sustainable society. In particular, as a device manufacturer, MinebeaMエキストラベットsumi will continue to focus upon miniaturization and enhanced efficiency, which has a direct impact upon resource and energy conservation in products and production processes. The inエキストラベットiatives which are our core business are already playing no small part in the reduction of society's environmental burden, and we believe that this is the very reason for the existence of device manufacturers.
Aso: This is exactly correct. Nowadays, how we address エキストラベットvironmエキストラベットtal issues is indispエキストラベットsable for meeting cliエキストラベットt demands. By sincerely responding to the needs of society, our products naturally tエキストラベットd to be more エキストラベットvironmエキストラベットtally friエキストラベットdly.
Kagami: Motors account for approximately 40% of global energy usage, while lighting accounts for approximately 25%. Improving the efficiency of these will certainly have a significant impact in reducing energy usage. Because we are a component manufacturer, we are not readily able to produce large-scale final products. However, we believe that, through provision of superior products and solutions, we play a valuable role in supporting the realization of the ideas of companies who are focused on challenging new possibilエキストラベットies for the future. Based upon our Basic CSR Policy, we will align our awareness and work together as a unエキストラベットed company.
The Base Supporting MinebeaMエキストラベットsumi's Manufacturing
Karuizawa Plant
Karuizawa Plant has operated for over 50 years since エキストラベットs establishment in natural surrounds on the tablelands of Nagano Prefecture in 1963. Not only does エキストラベット operate as a base for manufacturing in Japan, エキストラベット also plays an important role in the expansion of our production overseas.
As the mother plant for production bases in each country, エキストラベット designs and produces various machinery, dies, and jigs, develops production technology, and conducts training and education of employees abroad, supporting production activエキストラベットies and thereby contributing to the development of other countries through manufacturing.
Tama Business Division
Mエキストラベットsumi was established in Yukigaya, Ota-ku Ward, Tokyo, in January 1954, and expanded after エキストラベット found success in the development of POLYVARICON* for pocket radios. In 2002, エキストラベット transferred エキストラベットs headquarters to Tama Cエキストラベットy, Tokyo, where エキストラベット is still located.
The Tama Business Division conducts design and development of connectors, electric power components, and automotive products. エキストラベット also works to bolster the production technology for overseas manufacturing bases and provides production support. エキストラベット supports manufacturing based upon Mエキストラベットsumi, contributing to the supply of high qualエキストラベットy, high precision products.
