Basic approach and related initiatives
Environmentally friendly truck
In Japan, OMRON reviewed circulating transportation routes and expanded consolidated cargo transportation and joint distribution with other companies for the enhancement of transportation efficiency. Although transport volume dropped 6% from a year earlier, CO2 emission reduction at the logistics stage remained at 4.3%. Overseas, transport volume increased 12.3% compared to fiscal 2005 and air transport also grew, resulting in a 32.7% increase in CO2 emissions at the logistics stage.
In fiscal 2007, OMRON will promote a shift to environmentally friendly trucks in Japan. For overseas distribution, OMRON will integrate import/export points to one base, and study the possibility of a modal shift from air to high-speed ferry transport, to advance efforts to reduce CO2 emissions.
