Message
Sustainability—the Very Foundation of Our Business

From our first days in business in 1900, we have been committed tocontributing to the sustainable development of society by propagating
printing technology. Under our corporate philosophy of contributing “to afulfilling lifestyle as a mainstay of information and culture” for more than acentury, we have delivered various forms of value to society in a steadily
diversifying range of businesses linked with the most advanced printing
technologies. Based on our distinctive printing technologies, we currently
operate businesses in three fields: Information & Communication, Living &Industry, and Electronics. The Toppan Group has a global customer base of
more than 20,000 companies, a manufacturing base of 140 locations, and ahuman asset base of some 52,000 employees (on a consolidated basis).
Working at this monumental scale, we develop manifold businessenterprises around the world and engage with customers, business partners,
employees, and various other stakeholders. The Toppan Group is widely anddeeply involved in society as an essential supporter of people’s lives in thefields of food, clothing, and housing. As the President & Representative
Director of Toppan Inc., I take pride in the great social responsibility andsocial missions we shoulder.

Globalization and digitalization have drastically changed the businessenvironment surrounding Toppan in recent decades. Climate change andenvironmental issues have also become bigger challenges for us. To further
enhance our contribution to society as a corporate citizen, we arepromoting sustainability initiatives that link to the United Nations
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a group of companies
responsible for social infrastructure essential for the community andpeople’s lives, the Toppan Group has a strong affinity with the SDGs,
sustainability management, and environmental, social, and governance(ESG) issues. I believe these are the basic foundations of our Group.

Progress in Toppan’s Sustainability Management
Our Evolving Sustainability Management

Human rights, ethical standards, global
environmental conservation, and originality.
When formulated in 2000, TOPPAN VISION 21
incorporated various themes in common withtoday’s ESG and SDG concepts. When the UN
adopted the SDGs in 2015, the Toppan Group was
already engaged in diverse corporate social
responsibility initiatives that resonated closely with
TOPPAN VISION 21 and the SDG themes. Later, inNovember 2019, we announced the TOPPAN SDGs
STATEMENT and selected material issues to addressfrom SDG viewpoints in our business activities andGroupwide operations. Since November 2020, we
have been implementing Groupwide activities
under TOPPAN Business Action for SDGs.
We have also been pursuing business projects thatcreate new value for society by linking our efforts
focused on social agendas with our businessenterprises. To give just one example, our Living &Industry business is adding eco-value to ourcommercial products by quickly capturing thegrowingdemand for highly recyclable packaging andsustainable packaging materials. From May 2021,
we began accelerating these business initiatives by
setting specific targets in each of
our three business fields.

TOPPAN’s Approach to Sustainability
The Toppan Group undertakes sustainability activities in accordancewith the principles of the United Nations Global Compact and theguidelines of the ISO 26000 Guidance on Social Responsibility, aglobally recognized standard for organizations. The United Nations
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have also been incorporated
into the Group’s sustainability activity targets.
Since its foundation in 1900, Toppan has supported various clientcompanies in their efforts to overcome the challenges they face inbusiness. The solutions Toppan offers to meet the ever-changing needsof markets and clients are based on wide-ranging specialist knowledge
and expertise that have been derived from printing for more than acentury. Year by year, Toppan continues to widen the business fields ofthe Group by applying its printing technologies on various fronts insociety. As a corporation focused on the creation of social value,
Toppan formulated TOPPAN VISION 21 in 2000 to clarify thephilosophical basis for its Corporate Structure and define theprioritized Business Fields for the sustainable growth of the Group.
Japan joined with 192 other countries to adopt the SDGs at the UN
Summit held in September 2015. The SDGs encompass 17 goals and
169 targets focused on social agendas the international community has
committed to achieve by 2030. Private-sector businesses around theworld are expected to join policy initiatives to address the issues under
the SDGs. The various SDG agendas are the same issues Toppan should
address as a corporation that strives to realize a sustainable society
through TOPPAN VISION 21. Toppan also formulated its TOPPAN SDGs
STATEMENT in November 2019 to declare the Group’s commitment toinitiatives for achieving the SDGs and actions for integrating thoseinitiatives with management. The Group launched TOPPAN Business
Action for SDGs in November 2020 as a step to intensify its SDGfocused activities.

6Material Issues of Focus in Toppan’s Sustainability■ Selecting the Material Issues
Toppan has selected a set of material issues on which to focus inits sustainability activities, in order to accelerate thedevelopment of initiatives to address social issues throughout
the business enterprises of the Group. Toppan classifies theselected issues into two categories: Business Materiality, issuesof focus in the Group’s business activities, and Companywide
Materiality, issues for Toppan to address in Groupwide
operations as a good corporate citizen.

■ Selection Process
Toppan selected the material issues based on the criteria
described on the left by comprehensively assessing corporate
activities through discussions with relevant departments acrossthe Company. The appropriateness of the selections waschecked through dialogue with stakeholders and external
experts. Senior management reviewed the selections andfinalized them with authorization from the Board of Directors.
■ Materiality Selection Criteria
In selecting the material issues, Toppan prioritized theprinciples of the Corporate Philosophy, Corporate Creed, andConduct Guidelines presented in TOPPAN VISION 21, the masterplan plotting out the basic direction for the corporate activitiesof the Group. Along with the “markets & customers” and“technology & expertise” approaches encompassed within theBusiness Fields, Toppan has also embraced the concepts
underlying the SDGs, a set of long-term global development
agendas. The selected material issues are pathways forachieving the SDGs through the use of Toppan technologies andexpertise geared to the creation of new value for society.

7Environmental Target■ Toppan Group Environmental Vision 2050
Toppan has formulated the Toppan Group Environmental Vision 2050, a long-term policy for addressing global environmental issues, as a proponent of a sustainable
society that supports all forms of life in the global ecosystem of tomorrow.
① Contributing to Decarbonization
Aiming for virtually zero Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions.

② Contributing to Resource Circulation
Aiming for zero waste emissions.

③ Optimal Water Use
Reducing water consumption and contributing to improved water quality by preventing pollution.

■ Toppan Group Medium-and-long-term Environmental Targets for Fiscal 2030
In tandem with the Toppan Group Environmental Vision 2050, Toppan has reviewed the key performance indicators (KPIs) for SDG-linked issues under the“environmentally friendly & sustainable production” theme within the Companywide Materiality category.
① Contributing to Decarbonization
Reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 32.5% (446 kt-CO2e) compared to the fiscal 2017 level (1,373 kt-CO2e): Renewable energy ratio of 6.5% Reduce
Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 20% (1,224 ktCO2e) compared to the fiscal 2017 level (6,122 kt-CO2e)② Contributing to Resource Circulation
Reduce final landfill waste disposal by 60% (4,444 t) compared to the fiscal 2017 level (7,407 t) Increase the waste plastic material recycling rate by 12 percentage
points (to 65%) compared to the fiscal 2017 level (53%)③ Optimal Water Use
Reduce water consumption, improve water-use efficiency, and avoid or minimize water pollution risks (quantitative targets are to be set soon)

Toppan Group Medium-and-long-term Environmental Targets (Fiscal 2020 Results)
The Toppan Group has been undertaking environmental conservation activities to ensure that the entire Group attains the target values set for fiscal 2030.
The values from fiscal 2017 are set as baselines.

■ Scope 1 and 2 Greenhouse Gas Emissions■ Scope 3 Greenhouse Gas Emissions

The Toppan Group once again achieved its single-year Scope 1 and 2
greenhouse gas (GHG)-emission reduction targets approved by the Science
Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in fiscal 2020.

The Toppan Group failed to attain its single-year Scope 3 GHG-emission reduction
target approved by the SBTi in fiscal 2020, mainly due to the additional operationalsites acquired through the M&A in fiscal 2019.

*For Scope 1 and 2 emissions, CO2 emissions associated with electricity consumption at domestic sites are calculated using the basic emission factor according to the method specified in the
Ministerial Ordinance Concerning the Calculation of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Business Activities of Specified Dischargers (the latest amendment on April 30, 2015) issued by the
Ministry of the Environment (MOE) of Japan. Meanwhile, CO2 emissions associated with electricity consumption at overseas sites are calculated using country-specific conversion factors
published by the International Energy Agency (IEA). Greenhouse gas emissions associated with fuel consumption, excluding electricity consumption, are calculated globally by the MOE method
specified in the Ministerial Ordinance Concerning the Calculation of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Business Activities of Specified Dischargers (the latest amendment on April 30, 2015).

Toppan Group Medium-and-long-term Environmental Targets (Fiscal 2020 Results)■ Waste Plastic Material Recycling Rate
In recycling waste plastics, the Toppan Group seeks toattain a new single-year target set for fiscal 2021 in linewith the medium-and-long-term targets for fiscal 2030.

■ Final Landfill Waste Disposal
In recycling waste, the Toppan Group seeks to attain a new
single-year target set for fiscal 2021 in line with the medium andlong-term targets for fiscal 2030.
