3.4 ｜ Promoting Resource Recycling 3.4 Promoting Resource Recycling 3.4.1 Basic Approach Since our establishment, the Fujifilm Group has been actively recycling resources, through reducing water usage, recycling and reusing water, recovering and reusing resources (e.g. silver), and establishing a recycling system for multifunction devices, etc. We are conducting efforts to use resources effectively and reduce waste through measures which take into account the total lifecycle of a product, by considering the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) in the product design, reducing loss at the manufacturing stage, collecting, reusing and recycling used products, and recycling or converting into valuables. 3.4.2 Reducing Waste and Using Resources Effectively The product design and manufacturing divisions are working together to reduce waste in the Fujifilm group. In designing, products are designed with an awareness of recycling and conserving resources. Moreover, in manufacturing, we are improving the production yield rate based on “constant manufacturing condition,” which forms the basis of Fujifilm’s quality, to increase product quality and reduce waste. We have been promoting Group-wide optimization, including extracting valuables from waste and improving the quality of recycling, not only at our production sites but over our entire business operations including offices and warehouses. We are working for the entire Group to reduce the amount of waste by improving processes and by reusing plastic members to achieve our SVP 2030 targets. 1.
