Contributing to Relief Efforts
in the Wake of the Great
East Japan Earthquake

CSR Report2011
Message from the President
On behalf of the Toyo Denki Group, I would like to express my deepest
condolences to all those who have suffered as a result of the Great East
Japan Earthquake. I offer my sincere wish for a complete and swift recovery.
The Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011 and the subsequent problems at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant have forced a great
number of people to endure the hardships of life as refugees in evacuation centers. I
pray that the untiring efforts of those in the affected areas as well as the hard work of
the nuclear power plant employees who are attempting to restore stability to the damaged facility will lead to the quick and full recovery of not only the areas affected by
the disaster but indeed the whole of Japan.
In the face of this disaster, I was reminded of our company’s corporate social responsibility policies and felt a deep responsibility to use our products and systems tohelp create a safer, more secure and more sustainable society.
Thus, Toyo Denki employees will strive to continue providing the highest quality
products and systems to help with the efforts to repair and rebuild infrastructure,stabilize our customers’ production facilities, and maintain the supply of electricity.
We believe that our efforts will contribute to a speedier recovery in the affected areas.
In addition, because our company’s plants and facilities normally consume a large
amount of electricity, we are implementing a variety of measures designed to reduce
our use of electricity in order to help maintain the stable supply of electric power.
I hope that everyone will continue in their support and understanding of our CSRpolicies.
July 2011

Environmental Initiatives
Toyo Denki is developing, designing, and manufacturing a variety of environmentally-friendly products in
its three core businesses of Transportation Systems, Industrial Systems, and Information Systems. The
company carries out environmental protection initiatives throughout the process of manufacturing anddelivering its products and systems.

Efforts to Reduce CO2 Emissions
In 2010, Toyo Denki reduced its CO2 emissions to 51.1% ofthe 1990 level, but total emissions were up 20.1% from theprevious year. The increase was due to the higher volume ofproducts manufactured and shipped, as well as the start ofoperations at the Engineering Center, the new design devel-opment facility at the Yokohama Plant.
CO2 emissions per unit of production were also down, at
41.6% of the 1990 level, but this too was a 3.4% increaseover the previous year. This increase was likely due to thefact that capacity utilization was up in 2010.

Efforts to Reduce Waste
Since fiscal 2006, Toyo Denki has reduced its landfill waste
output to less than 10% of 1998 level, achieved by implementing strict rules for waste processing and other measures including comprehensive sorting of metal scraps andpaper recycling. The total volume of waste was over 1,200
tonnes in 1996, but in the last few years has hovered at the600 to 700 tonne level.
As a result of implementing paper recycling in 2002, therecycling rate for general waste rose to approximately 70%
in 2007 from 30% the year recycling began. In recent years,
the amount of recycled general waste has hovered around60%.

Control of Hazardous Materials
PCB waste is stored and reported in accordance with Japan’s Act on Special Measures concerning Promotion ofProper Treatment of PCB Wastes, and the proper applications are made for its disposal. The company is reducing
emissions of volatile organic compounds ( VOCs) via a range

contained in products, including green management.

UPToyo Denki’s Efforts to Conserve Energy

Striving to meet its voluntary goal of an 18% reduction compared to last year’s contract demand

In July 2011, the government imposed energy consumption restrictions on majorenergy consumers, defined as those that consume 500 kW or more of contract
demand, within the area covered by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) andTohoku Electric Power Co.
Toyo Denki’s manufacturing base, the Yokohama Plant, is subject to theserestrictions and has had a 15% reduction over the previous year’s contract demand
imposed on it. However, the Yokohama Plant was already committed to at least an
18% voluntary reduction in electric power consumption. In addition to use of its solar
power generation and ice thermal energy storage systems, the plant has implemented
the following power saving measures.

Toyo Denki’s own Toyo Wireless Measurement
System helps to visualize energy consumption.

● Reducing the number of lights in use and the level of lighting by 50%● Turning computer monitors off when employees are away from their workareas● More efficient use of copiers, electric hot water dispensers, and otherelectrical machinery● Reducing the number of vending machines in use● Restricting the use of elevators● Reviewing the number of large electric furnaces in use and shifting theirhours of operation
