My Next StageChristina BarajasSustainability Manager, MACTAC AMERICAS, LLCScope: LINTEC CORPORATIONLINTEC Group Quality, Environmental and Business Continuity PolicyThe LINTEC Group sets forth its Basic Policy in the LINTEC Group Quality, Environmental and Business Continuity Policy. To practice specific activities, the Group has drawn up a Quality Policy, Environmental Policy, and Business Continuity Policy, as well as Action Guidelines for each.Environmental Management SystemBased on the LINTEC Group Quality, Environmental and Business Continuity Policy, the LINTEC Group proactively works on conservation of the global environment. With regard to worldwide integrated ISO 14001 certification, in fiscal 2022, we underwent a renewal audit and received a certificate of approval (Issue 16). We have been promoting information sharing among 12 domestic sites and 10 overseas sites covered by the integrated certification. We also underwent third-party verification regarding electric power purchased, production water usage, CO2 emissions, waste discharge, and VOC*1 atmospheric emissions. The verification found no important issues requiring correction. For biodiversity conservation, we continue to engage in relevant activities, such as tree planting and beach cleanups. To reduce marine plastic waste, LINTEC CORPORATION has also been a member of CLOMA*2 and is making efforts as a corporate citizen to propose and promote environmentally friendly products.LINTEC’s Medium-term Targets (FY2020-FY2022) and Results in the Environmental FieldCO2 emissionsElectric power consumptionProduction water usage*1 VOC: VOC stands for volatile organic compounds.

It is a platform to promote the sustainable LINTEC Group’s ApproachThe LINTEC Group aims to achieve harmony between its corporate activities and the global environment. We are promoting various initiatives under the slogan “The Earth is one, so let’s strive for a comfortable environment from a broad perspective.”For more detailed information, please visit our Sustainability website.LINTEC Environmental ReportItemTarget1% reduction from the previous year (per unit of production)1% reduction from the previous year (per unit of production)1% reduction from the previous year (per unit of production) (Paper production at the Mishima and Kumagaya plants)Waste discharge0.1% reduction from the previous year11% improvementthat become gas in the atmosphere.use of plastic products and development and introduction of plastic alternatives, and to accelerate innovation through public-private partnerships, toward the reduction of marine plastic litter.

In fiscal 2022, we expanded the TCFD subcommittee to include new members and added a long-term period targeting 2050 (long-term) and analyzed the 4°C, 2°C and 1.5°C or lower scenarios while advancing the formulation of a global vision for domestic businesses. As a result, we identified and revised “transition risks and physical risks,” and “opportunities” in accordance with the TCFD recommendations.Furthermore, regarding financial impact, we calculated quantitative impact and examined its degree of impact on business and countermeasures, and worked to improve the disclosed information on “strategy” both qualitatively and quantitatively.Within MACTAC, Simply Sustainable is more than a brand. It’s our initiative to choose environmental best practices so they can be ingrained in everything we do and simply become a part of who we are. And it simply starts with building a culture that values and celebrates responsible innovation. We accomplish this through focus on our four main sustainability pillars — sourcing, manufacturing, R&D, and diversity and equal rights. In our manufacturing facilities, it is a two-fold focus, on waste and CO2 reduction. Coated product waste is either recycled or sent to waste-to-energy plants. We maximize our efforts to minimize our waste production and streamline our production process to reduce our carbon footprint. We’ve also made significant investments in our CO2 reduction journey, such as LED lighting installation within our coating facilities (completed in 2022) and our finishing facilities (to be completed in 2023). Updating the lighting not only decreases our CO2 emissions, but it also reduces maintenance time, waste disposal on used bulbs, and creates a better lit environment for our employees.
