Materiality

The EBARA Group’s long-term vision, E-Vision 2030, puts forth five material issues to be addressed by the EBARA Group leading up to 2030. By responding to these material issues through our business activities, we aim to achieve outcomes that will increase social, environmental, and economic value.

Adopted in 2015, the 17 U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) establish a framework to build an inclusive and sustainable world.
The EBARA Group aims to further our contributions to the SDGs and help realize an inclusive and sustainable world through the pursuit of solutions to our identified material issues, while simultaneously increasing the social, environmental, and economic value we generate. We believe this will earn us greater corporate value and recognition as an excellent global company.

Our material issues and the SDGs they are most aligned with were determined through discussions by leadership, including Independent Directors, and outside experts.

We strive to lower our environmental footprint by searching for innovative ways to lower the CO2 emissions of our production processes. We are aiming to reduce GHG emissions from EBARA Group business activities 26% by 2030 compared to Scope 1 & 2 emissions from FY2018.

The Group will foster a corporate culture that encourages competition and embraces challenge.

EBARA has been evolving its Corporate Governance System in phases to facilitate the Company’s sustainable growth and fulfill its social responsibilities. We will continue to implement Governance best practices, including looking to leading companies outside of Japan to act as our benchmarks.
