Assessment (ver. 1.04)
14th, April 2021

© 2018 Shiseido Company Limited

InternalThis guide provides principles, requirements and guidelines related to theenvironmental footprint (EF) of products and organizational activities, as defined by
the life cycle assessment (LCA) outlined in ISO 140401), 140442) and “Corporate
Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard3)” of GHG protocol.
The objective of this guide is to promote environmental-friendly design andminimize environmental footprint by providing appropriate methodology to evaluate
our efforts on product development or economic activities from a life cycle
perspective while preventing greenwash due to the overestimation of avoided effect.
If necessary, when evaluating the tradeoff or synergistic effect, system boundaries
and impact categories should be expanded. In interpreting and communicating theresults of EF evaluation, uncertainties due to the limits of LCA shall be carefully
considered, including data quality among secondary databases or differences in theavailable range of primary data collection between suppliers.

C-2 Transport method
In principle, truck transport is adopted as the basic transport method in order toraise the incentive for primary data collection and reduction of CO2 emissions bymodal shift.
<Examples>(1) Transportation by logistics operator: 10 ton trucks(2) Transportation by other businesses (producers, etc.): 2 ton trucks(3) International shipment: Container ships (less than 4000 TEU)
(4) Transportation of waste collection: 2 ton trucks
C-3 Loading factor
A scenario with a lower loading rate than average was adopted in order to raise the
incentive for primary data collection.
<Example>50 %C-4 Transport materials
A scenario with more transportation materials than average was adopted in order toraise the incentive for primary data collection.
<Example>(1) Transportation for raw material procurement: 71.3 g/kg of tinplate and 33.5
g/kg of cardboard(2) Transportation for packaging material procurement: 0.5 g/g of cardboard and0.01 g/g of polyethylene sheets(3) Intermediate transportation in the manufacturing stage: 71.3 g/kg of tinplateand 33.5 g/kg of cardboard(4) Transportation for shipping: Using cardboard with weight of 50% of productweight24© 2018 Shiseido Company Limited

Annex E: Scenario for waste treatment
The following scenario should be adopted for the method of waste treatment(waste containers, waste accessories, waste transport materials, etc.) sent to theprocessing facility, depending on the type of waste materials. In the case where itis difficult to specify the type and composition ratio of waste materials, thescenario "E.6 Other Waste" may be adopted.
E-1 Glass
The glass waste treatment scenario, taken from PCR (PA-BE-03)13) of the carbon
footprint program for glass container packaging in Japan, is shown below.
- 53.1 % is recycled as cullet.
- 13.4 % is recycled as a raw material for other uses.
- 15.3 % undergoes intermediate treatment and is landfilled.
- 18.2 % is directly landfilled.
E-2 Plastic
The plastic waste treatment scenario, taken from PCR (PA-BC-02)14) of the
carbon footprint program for plastic container packaging in Japan, is shown below.
- 62 % is incinerated.
- 16 % is landfilled directly.
- 22 % is recycled.
*GHG emissions from the plastics of sold products and disposal treatment ofthem were calculated under the following scenario until FY2017, on Scope 3
evaluation.
- 92 % is incinerated.
- 3 % is landfilled directly.
- 5 % is recycled.
E-3 Paper
The paper waste treatment scenario, taken from PCR (PA-BB-01)16) of the
carbon footprint program for paper container packaging in Japan, is shown below.
- 96 % is incinerated.
- 4 % is recycled.

CO2 from the release of carbon-constituting paper molecules is not counted,
because paper is a 100 % biomass-derived material (carbon neutral).
E-4 Cardboard
The cardboard waste treatment scenario, taken from PCR (PA-BB-01)16) of the
carbon footprint program for paper container packaging in Japan, is shown below.
- 4 % is incinerated.
- 96 % is recycled.
E-5 Metal- 100 % is landfilled.
E-6 Other waste
The other waste treatment scenario, taken from the report “Survey on actual
waste disposal business in Japan (2006, Ministry of the Environment, Japan)”15) , isshown below.
- 92 % is incinerated.
- 3 % is landfilled directly.
- 5 % is recycled.
