Aiming to create a “sustainable recycling-oriented society” that harmonizes theenvironment with the economy
Looking at the international economic situation during
the fiscal year, concerns over a global economic
downturn have heightened against the backdrop offactors including high inflation, monetary tightening invarious countries and the energy crisis associated withthe prolongation of the war in Ukraine.
In this situation, the Makita Group focused on expanding
its lineup of cordless products including power tools andoutdoor power equipment in the “40Vmax Lithium-ion
Battery” series. With respect to production, we worked
on building a production system and strengthening
management functions to flexibly address changes in the
demand environment and geopolitical risks, and improvethe efficiency of the Group as a whole. We also work toincrease the level of the community-based and customeroriented service framework in order to further strengthen trusting relationships with customers around theworld. We strive to deepen and develop the market centered on cordless products.
Regarding initiatives toward carbon neutrality, the impact of climate change on society, such as frequentwind and flood disasters, is becoming more serious, and companies are playing an increasingly importantrole in realizing a decarbonized society. We have identified contributing to a decarbonized society as amaterial issue that should be prioritized and are stepping up our efforts.
Therefore, the Group is currently working on the realization of a decarbonized society by focusing on
cordless outdoor power equipment that does not emit exhaust gases during use as the next pillar of our futurebusiness in addition to power tools. In addition, with the goal of reducing our greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions, we have set targets for reducing GHG emissions from our business activities (Scope 1 and 2) by
50% by FY2030 from the FY2020 level and to net zero by FY2040, and reducing GHG emissions from theentire supply chain (Scope 3) to net zero by FY2050.
During the fiscal year ended March 2023, solar panels were installed at the Okinawa Branch in Japan and at
multiple overseas locations, including the Thailand Plant, Austria, and Taiwan, and we promoted the use ofrenewable energy.
We will continue to work on the use of renewable energy and energy conservation in our business activities
to achieve GHG emission reduction targets.
“Environmental Report 2023” is published with the objective of presenting the Company’s initiatives forenvironmental protection activities. I hope this report helps your better understanding for our activities.

TopicsOur Commitment to Carbon Neutrality■Shifting from engine-powered to battery-powered
In the past, the majority of OPE (Outdoor Power Equipment) was engine powered. However, while thatprovides superior power and stamina, the environmental impact of exhaust emissions has been a major issue.
In recent years, global warming, which is one of the most serious environmental problems, has drawn
particular attention from society. Our company is focusing on cordless OPE that do not emit exhaust gas
when used, and contribute to solving environmental problems, particularly global warming.
Our company will contribute to the realization of a decarbonized society in the future by utilizing our battery
and motor technologies cultivated through the manufacture of power tools, and accelerating shifting fromengine-powered to battery-powered products by proactively developing and expanding sales of cordlessproducts whose usability is comparable to that of engine-powered products.

■Sustainability Committee EstablishedThe role of corporations in achieving a decarbonized society is becoming increasingly important, and in
2021 we established a new Sustainability Committee chaired by the President to promote carbon neutrality.
In addition to setting targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we will proceed with promoting initiatives
to reduce emissions, including the use of renewable energy.

■Environmental Initiatives of Head Office
We are continuously working to reduce GHG emissions by upgrading to LED lighting, improving theefficiency of air conditioning and compressors, and reducing air leakage in our plants. Last year, in addition
to previous initiatives, we reduced the use of cooling air during product testing and reduced the use of water
heaters in summer.

■Environmental Initiatives of Sales Offices in Japan
Solar panels are being progressively installed at our branches and sales
offices in Japan, and installation has been completed at several sales
offices.

■Environmental Initiatives of Overseas Plants
We have plants in eight countries, and approximately 90% of
our production volume is produced at our overseas locations.
Solar panels were installed in the Thailand plant. We will
actively install them in other plants in the future.
[The photo shows the Thailand plant]■Environmental Initiatives of Overseas Sales
Companies
We have established directly managed sales offices inapproximately 50 countries around the world and are engagedin activities such as installing solar panels.
In 2022, solar panels were installed at Makita Austria and
Makita Taiwan. Going forward, we will continue to actively
install them at other overseas sales companies.
[The photo shows our sales subsidiary in the Austria]
Our sales subsidiary in the Germany has completed
construction of a geothermal heat pump in compliance with
the new energy law in Germany, and the building, which was
designed with energy conservation in mind, has a cooling andheating system that uses geothermal heat and lets in naturallight. (Our sales subsidiary in the Netherlands is also making
similar efforts.)■Introduction of biomass materials
We are introducing biomass materials to contribute to carbon
neutrality. Biomass materials are used in some of our products(*1). In addition, since fiscal 2021 we have been working to
replace plastic bags used for packaging with biomass plasticbags. *1 Model GA9060 series motor housing

Promoting the Elimination of Plastic
Due to concern about global environmental pollution in the form of plastic waste in the oceans and amid social
efforts to reduce single-use plastics usage, we are working to cut back on the volume of single-use plastics in
our product packaging and thereby contribute to the realization of a sustainable society and the preservationof biodiversity. In addition to our existing efforts to simplify packaging, from FYE 2021, we have been
reducing the use of plastic bags by devising internal materials and switching to environmentally friendly
materials such as paper and biomass plastic bags.

and life by increasing the capacity of new technology motors (the DC brushless motor) and batteries,
improving motor efficiency, and reducing the size and weight of power components that affect the mass of
products. Furthermore, by utilizing our industry-leading battery charge and discharge technology and motor
technology to promote manufacturing various rechargeable products (cordless and engineless products), weare contributing to improving user safety, convenience, and comfort, as well as reducing exhaust gas, noise,and fuel consumption. The 40Vmax series is one of the most important and powerful platforms for the
future, which will further allow us to make various products cordless.

■Publication of Product Environmental Data Sheets
Since FYE 2011, we have been publishing quantitative data of the environmental performance of each of our
products (product weight, noise level, the percentage of reusability and recyclability, renewable rate,
efficiency, etc.) on our website, in order to give a better understanding of the environmental performance ofour products.

Green Procurement■Supply Chain Management
In order to review the status of environmental activities of our suppliers, we conduct a questionnaire survey
on environmental protection activities to our suppliers (e.g., to check whether they have acquired anenvironmental management system certification and review specific plants subject to laws and regulations).

■Compliance with Overseas Environmental Laws and Regulations (RoHS, REACH)
Substances regulated by environmental laws and regulations are defined as Makita Prohibited and Controlled
Chemical Substances. In order to ensure compliance with the European RoHS Directive, we control
chemical substances to conform to the RoHS Directive.

Makita's Cordless Products that Contribute to Solving Social Issues■Solving the Labor Shortage and Improving the Working Environment<Battery Powered Wheelbarrow>
Japan’s agriculture is facing a serious labor shortage due to heavy labor and the aging population. It is said
that 60% of agricultural work involves carrying tasks, and the wheelbarrow used for carrying loads strain theshoulders and back due to uneven surfaces. There are engine-powered transport vehicles, but you sometimes
need to worry about the noise when using them early in the morning, and they take a long time to start up,need fuel (e.g., gasoline) to run, and generate exhaust gas emissions.
On the other hand, the CU180D battery powered wheelbarrow is powered by an 18V battery, which is astandard battery for other cordless tools. As it can be used in the same way as a wheelbarrow and is motor
assisted, even elderly people and women can carry heavy loads with less power.
In addition, the CU600D battery powered wheelbarrow with a maximum load capacity of 300 kg. wasreleased in fiscal 2022.

< Battery Powered Pruning Shears>
For grape farms, pruning is an essential task to harvest delicious grapes every year. However, pruning
manually with pruning scissors has a risk of tenosynovitis as it puts a major strain on hands and arms.
The UP361D/362D battery powered pruning shears are powered by a 18V battery, which is a standard
battery for other cordless tools. The combination of the blade and the trigger makes it possible to prune trees
and fruit trees in the same way as a pair of scissors. The scissors are lightweight at 0.8kg, reducing the strain
on the hands and arms and increasing work speed.
In addition, the UP100D battery powered pruning shears equipped with a 10.8V battery was released infiscal 2022.

<Cordless Fan Jacket>
Due to global warming, extremely hot days are increasing, and working in a hot environment increases strain
on the body and the risk of heat stroke.
The cordless fan jacket is a jacket with small fans that circulate air through the jacket to dry sweat and cool
the body with the heat of vaporization. This is an item for preventing heat and can be used in places likeoutdoors where air conditioners or fans cannot be used.

<Robotic Cleaner>
Cleaning large areas, such as offices, stores, and warehouses, requires manpower. In addition, in factories
where manufacturing machines are lined up, there are many areas that cannot be cleaned manually unless themachines are stopped for safety.
The robotic cleaner can automatically clean areas that require cleaning by, for example, doing work that
requires bending over, which puts a strain on the back, and in very large areas. There is no need to turn onlights for cleaning or stop machines because people do not go near the manufacturing machines.

■Disaster Preparedness< Disaster Prevention Combo Kit >In recent years, due to frequent natural disasters caused by global warming, cordless products have attracted
attention in terms of early recovery from disasters and disaster preparedness. Our disaster prevention combo
kit, which is useful in case of a disaster, includes in the package a light needed in case of a power failure atnight, a radio and a television to obtain correct information, and a battery and charger. It also includes a lightthat can charge a smartphone by connecting a USB cord.
Related SDGs

■Sustainable Society<Cordless Outdoor Power Equipment>
In the past, most chainsaws and mowers used outdoors were engine powered. Engine-powered products are
powerful and can be used for many hours, but because they generate exhaust gas emissions and noise, there
are time and locational constraints on using them, and they are not easy to use because they need gasoline.
The cordless OPE is an environmentally friendly product for workers and the environment, including
animals and plants, because it can be used just like an engine-powered product, is low noise, and does not
generate exhaust gas emissions.
