Energy Conservation in Manufacturing

Reviewing the Manufacturing Processes

We strive to improve the efficiency of our operations for production with minimal waste.

Installation of Energy-efficient Production Facilities

- Use a highly efficient heating furnace in the process of molding racquets.
- Introduced new facilities to shorten drying time in the process of painting racquets.
- Installed air conditioning equipment with low power consumption for efficient heating and cooling of the factories.

Active Introduction of Renewable Energy

  • We are promoting a company-wide switch to use electricity delivered from renewable energy, mainly in factories and headquarters that consume large amounts of electricity.
  • The German subsidiary, YONEX GmbH, installs solar panels on the rooftop of its office building, and solar power generation covers more than half of its annual electricity use.

Calculation of Scope 3 CO2 Emissions

We introduced a cloud service for GHG emission calculation and visualization and started to track the group-wide Scope 3 CO2 emissions. In the future, we will set CO2 reduction targets, including Scope 3.

Shift to Environmentally Friendly cars for Company Use

We are switching from gasoline cars to hybrid and electric cars for sales and other business activities.
