  Philosophy  
      
The Brother Group Environmental Policy is based on the Brother Group Global Charter and summarizes the specific concepts of environmental activities. As it constitutes a single unified environmental policy for the entire group, Brother is globally developing activities to protect the environment and aiming to deliver new value not only via product performance and quality but also environmental considerations.
     
Basic philosophy 
    


The Brother Group shall positively and continuously act to decrease the environmental impact of all aspects of our business operations so that society can achieve sustainable development.

   
Basic environmental policy 
   

  
Concern for the environment shall be the cornerstone of all operations. Safety and environmental impact shall be prime considerations at every stage of a product's lifecycle, from design, development, manufacturing, customer usage, and disposal, to reuse and recycling.

   
  

Action guidelines

  

 We will set environmental targets in all areas (manufacturing, production, and service) and continuously improve their environmental aspects.

  

We will not limit our activities to the observation of laws and regulations in all countries where we conduct business, but will also act with a strong moral responsibility to prevent pollution and reduce environmental impact.

  

We will always consider waste reduction by more efficient use of resources and recycling of products, and will also avoid creating contamination by hazardous substances when designing and developing both technologies and products.

 

While respecting voluntary activities by each company of the Brother Group, we will also exercise our environmental duties as a united group.

 

We will enhance the environmental understanding and awareness of all employees by activities such as environmental education and PR.     We will actively disclose our environmental efforts to our customers, local communities, and other interested parties to further foster understanding.
