Environmental contribution*1 > CO2 emissions from production sites
The OMRON Group strives to offer products and services beneficial to the global society. The aim is to make the reduction in environmental impact through its products and services greater than the environmental burden caused by its production activities. In this way, the Group will work to expand the company's environmental contribution in order to help lessen environmental impact in a more efficient manner.
In fiscal 2023, the OMRON Group achieved an environmental contribution amounting to 1,158 thousand tons of CO2, far greater than the total CO2 emissions from the OMRON Group production sites (75 thousand tons of CO2) for twelve consecutive years.
