Sustainability Medium-term Plan for Product

Circular Economy

The Kuraray Group is working to address the issue of transitioning to a circular economy as a company that develops products made from fossil raw materials. During “PASSION 2026” period, we will aim to challenge on the themes indicated in the figure below and reduce in the use of fossil raw materials and the amount of waste generated over the life cycle of the products by co-working with the supply chain.
 In 2024, we set a GHG Scope 3 emissions reduction target and discussed initiatives to reduce the use of fossil raw materials by converting existing raw materials to recycled or bio-based raw materials and reusing products and raw materials, etc. We will continue to promote each of these reduction initiatives in 2025.
