Environmental Management
As a responsible member of society, JSW regards operating in harmony with the environment as animportant corporate responsibility. In our pursuit of production activities and environmental technologies that respect environmental integrity, we engage in business activities that contribute to the ecologically sustainable development of society.
Ever since we formulated a medium-term environmental plan in fiscal 2001 for the first time, we havebeen proactively promoting environmental management activities throughout the company. In fiscal
2018, we formulated the Fifth Medium-Term Environmental Plan (fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2019) and widened
the scope of environmental activities to include the entire JSW Group. Accordingly, we are engaged inactivities to achieve the goals set out in the plan.
Action Plan
1. We aim to carry out environmental tasks in an organized way,
and to implement environmental preservation activities
continuously.
2. We will set appropriate objectives and targets for reducing theburden our activities impose on the environment with conserving biodiversity.

The Environmental Management Committee, headed by thedirector in charge of environmental management, determines
matters such as annual environmental management policies andprograms of environmental activities for the whole company.
Each plant has its own Environmental Supervisory Committee,
which promotes environmental management activities andworks hand in hand with other Group companies including affiliates to reduce the environmental impact of the Company’sactivities.

3. We aim to provide society with products and services that
contribute to the preservation of the environment.
(1) We endeavor to increase the social value of our products interms of environmental protection, safety and hygiene.
(2) We will provide products and services that reduce environmental loads by obtaining a clear grasp of environmental
needs and developing technologies.

Business activities and environmental impact
In the process of manufacturing activities related to our core business sectors, steel and energy products business and industrial machinery products business, the environmental impact status is shown below.
We measure both inputs (consumption of energy, water, and the like) and outputs (such as waste, carbon dioxide, and water resulting
from manufacturing processes), and use the data in our environmental improvement activities.

ECO Magnesium Alloy Injection Molding Machines
With emission regulations becoming ever more stringent all over
the world to curb global warming, it has become a pressing issue
to reduce body weight for both internal-combustion and electricvehicles. To achieve this goal, carmakers are considering the use ofvarious lightweight materials. Among such materials, magnesiumis drawing much attention as an eco-friendly material for its lightweight and excellent recyclability. In particular, an increase in its
applications in the automotive field is anticipated. Compared withaluminum alloy, which has been similarly drawing attention as alightweight material, magnesium alloy weighs approximately onethird less. In addition, depending on the product design, magnesium alloy makes it possible to reduce the overall weight of theproduct even further, and thus is expected to bring significanteffects.
JSW has been involved in the magnesium-related business formore than 25 years. Our core product, magnesium alloy injection
molding machines, is the only machine in the world that enables
the molding of magnesium. The machine melts magnesium in asealed cylinder. This makes it unnecessary to use non-flammablegas (mainly sulfur hexafluoride, a potent greenhouse gas that has ahigh global warming potential), which was needed in the conventional die casting method to prevent molten metal in the furnacefrom being exposed to the atmosphere. In this way, magnesium
alloy injection molding machines contribute to the protection of
the environment in terms of the manufacturing method.
We have now commenced sales of large molding machines forthe production of large magnesium parts, which are expected toachieve a greater effect on weight reduction. JSW will remain committed to developing eco-conscious products.
