- *1
- Energy consumption associated with fuel and electricity consumption is calculated using the conversion factor specified in the Act on the Rational Use of Energy of Japan.
- *2
- The PRTR data and VOC emissions only cover domestic sites, including Group sites.
- *3
- CO2 emissions are calculated using the adjusted emission factor according to the method specified in the Guidelines for Calculating Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Businesses issued by the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) of Japan. CO2 emissions associated with electricity consumption at overseas Group sites, however, are calculated based on the latest conversion factors published by the International Energy Agency (IEA). Scope 1 greenhouse gas emissions include CO2 emissions derived from combustibles burned in incinerators.
- *4
- Emissions into the atmosphere are calculated based on the standards established by the Japan Federation of Printing Industries (JFPI) and the VOC emission inventory issued by the MOE of Japan.
- *5
- The total discharge of waste includes industrial waste of no value and waste materials of value sold or transferred as resources (both generated in association with business activities).
- *6
- Includes 10,291 m3 of spring water from the premises of the Akihabara Sales Building.
- *7
- Excludes withdrawal and discharge at two Group sites in Russia.

Participating in the Green Purchasing NetworkBack to Top
The Green Purchasing Network (GPN) of Japan was established in 1996 as a loose-knit network of businesses, civilian organizations, government agencies, and other entities proactively engaged in green purchasing practices. GPN is convinced that green purchasing plays a critical role in the formulation of a market for eco-products on a scale sufficient to facilitate eco-product development. GPN believes that green purchasing will contribute significantly to the realization of a sustainable society.
As a GPN member, Toppan Inc. provides printing services based on the GPN Ordering Guidelines for Printing Services.
CFP and Carbon Offsetting InitiativesBack to Top
Toppan Inc. has been visualizing CO2 emissions associated with printed materials and events through CFP* and carbon offsetting initiatives. Its one-stop service for client companies covers every step from CFP quantification to carbon-offset certification. This procedure has also been applied to the Company’s own products and events. CFP quantifications were conducted for 13 products, services, and events in Japan in fiscal 2022.
