Message from the Chairman

We will contribute toa sustainable society
through management fully
integrated with CSR

Launch a new mid-term management
plan integrating social solutions intobusiness activities
In 2018, the Toyo Seikan Group launched its Fifth Midterm Management Plan.
Looking ahead to the period after the 100th anniversary,
we have been actively engaged in efforts to reform ourbusiness structure and reorganize the group and industry,
while the business environment surrounding us has been
drastically changing. Now we believed it was essential
for us to review our Fourth Mid-term Management Plan,
which started in fiscal 2016, with new perspectives, anddecided to discontinue the existing plan to switch to thenew one.
Based on the Management Philosophy of Toyo SeikanGroup established in 2016, we will promote corporate
management integrated with CSR, which fully integrates
business activities with social solutions. We have set the“eight materiality items” on which we place a high priority
in CSR management, and will strive to implement themwith all our strength. Through this commitment, we willcontribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals
of 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (SDGs).

Eight Materiality Items
Now let’s look at each of the eight items of our materiality.
Category
Continuous creation of
new products and services
Environmentally-friendly
systems

Materiality
Development of packaging and services in linewith social needs
Enhancement of quality assurance
Contribution to environmental protectionMore sustainable supply chain
Coexistence with communities

Honest and responsible
behavior

Respect for human rights
Respect for employees
Ensuring thorough compliance

Development of packaging containers and services
in line with social needs; Enhancement of quality
assurance; and contribution to environmental protection
Our key products, packaging containers, face a numberof environmental issues. Today, almost all consumer
products, except for a very few items such as automotive
gasoline, are packaged in containers; people do notbring their own containers to buy contents. Despite thissignificance of packages in our living, they are disposed
after being used. This is the reason why recycling has
been encouraged all over the world. Recently, microplastic particles that are generated from plastic packages,
including PET bottles, and drift around in the ocean, havebecome a serious social problem.
As part of environmental management, we have been
undertaking an initiative to bring a technical innovation
to the production system for aluminum cans, which arebroadly used worldwide. Can-making needs a hugeamount of water to wash away lubricant that is usedin the can forming process. According to an estimate,approximately 30 million tons of rinsing water is consumed
in the world every year.
The Toyo Seikan Group will commercialize a can
production system that drastically reduces consumption
and disposal of rinsing water. A new technology will be
adopted in machines produced by Stolle Machinery, agroup company and the world’s largest manufacturer of
can and can-end making machines. I believe this will allow
us to make a world-scale contribution to resource saving.
In an environmental contribution through manufacturing,
we cannot accomplish meaningful results without
consideration to the entire supply chain. It is not sufficient
to reduce CO2 emissions just from our own manufacturing

processes. We also need to take account of raw material
procurement, suppliers’ production methods and how
consumers use the product, as well as recycling anddisposal processes. The Group therefore calculated theamount of Scope 3 emissions, the green gas emissions
from upstream and downstream of our supply chain.
Meanwhile, three of our Thai subsidiaries plan to launchsolar power generation utilizing roofs of their factorybuildings, which is expected to start by fiscal 2019.
We will continue our efforts, together with our suppliers, toachieve “zero carbon emissions” in the entire supply chain.

Respect for Employees
Respecting employees, one of our materiality items, isalso a significant management issue. It is essential for theGroup’s sustainability to create a corporate culture thatallows diverse individuals to actively work in good healthand provides them with various opportunities to generatehigh productivity. I strongly believe that a company witha sufficient capacity to accept different perspectives
dares to face challenges and is able to take advantage of
people’s different views to accomplish growth.
As the first step to become such a company, we have
set the target ratio of female recruits at 30% of all new
recruits, aiming to create a workplace where womenare able to play significant roles. We believe that the
improvement of work environment from the viewpoint of
women’s active involvement will lead to the creation of aworkplace comfortable for everyone, including the elderly
and the disabled. The latest recruitment results showthat women accounted for 36% of the new employees inadministrative and technical departments, while the ratio
was only 19% of total new recruits across the organization
including manufacturing departments. We will continue
with discussion and examination from various standpoints
to draw up effective measures to achieve the goal.
More sustainable supply chain; Respect for humanrights; and Coexistence with communities
In addition to our internal issues of business operation,
we need to give consideration to social issues that exist in
global supply chains.
As to respect for human rights, which constitutes thefundamental platform of all CSR activities, we are required
to take human rights of all relevant parties from suppliers
to consumers into consideration, as well as human rightsof our own employees. We, as the Toyo Seikan Group,also need to take the initiative in CSR procurement,

which some of our suppliers have already requested us to
implement, focusing on specific aspects of “human rights,
environment and social issues” in our supply chains.
To coexist in harmony with communities, we will continue
our contribution to communities based on the specificissues of regions where group companies operate.

Ensuring thorough compliance
It is regrettable that, in 2017, the Japan Fair Trade
Committee conducted an on-site inspection at theGroup’s key operating company Toyo Seikan for alleged
violation of the Antimonopoly Act. Since then, I havemet all employees in sales section of the company,
every time around 20 members in a meeting, to handdown the founder’s lofty ambition and to discuss SDGs,
thereby aiming to ensure compliance and deepen theirunderstanding of CSR. In the next step, I will also pursue
other initiatives, including bribery prevention.

Contribute to the creation of asustainable society, utilizing two validity
scales: the Group’s Management
Philosophy and SDGs
We have two scales to measure the validity of directionof our efforts: the Management Philosophy of Toyo SeikanGroup and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The Group’s Management Philosophy has succeeded
the spirit of founder Tatsunosuke Takasaki, who statedin the “Fundamental Policy of the Company” that “ouraim is to contribute to the happiness of mankind throughpackaging.” The Management Philosophy stipulates ourmanagement policy as “we will constantly create new andinnovative values, aspire to achieve a sustainable society
and contribute to people’s happiness.” Meanwhile,
SDGs are referred to as a scale to measure how well a
corporation fulfills the social responsibility, as mentionedby Ms. Hiroko Kuniya, the former anchorwoman of NHK’s
news show Close-up Gendai.
We will always conduct our business operation basedon these two scale, the Group’s Management Philosophy
and SDGs, while engaging in efforts to accomplish oureight materiality items. This is the way we contributeto the creation of a sustainable society, and I believe
our commitment to these efforts is the meaning of theexistence of the Toyo Seikan Group.

Toyo Seikan Group 5th Mid-term Management Plan

Materiality of Toyo Seikan Group

Basic Strategy
The Toyo Seikan Group 5th Mid-term Management Plan, which was recently developed for the period from fiscal 2018
to 2020, defines the fiscal 2018 as the year of a fresh start with the spirit of foundation, and provides a fundamental policy
for the Group’s growth strategies and measures to execute the strategies, including reforms of business structure andcorporate culture as well as finance and capital management measures.

We have set the Toyo Seikan Group’s eight materiality Items on which we place a high priority in order to contribute to
the creation of a sustainable society.
They are based on the Management Philosophy of Toyo Seikan Group and serve as a basic guide for the Groupto promote management that is fully integrated with CSR. Through addressing these material issues, we will also
contribute to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which were adopted by the United Nationsin September 2015.

(1) Continuous offering of new value to our customers and society

Process of Setting Materiality

We will continue to help people live more fulfilling lives, and propose environmentally friendly systems, taking
advantage of the combination of technologies we have developed in three key categories of material development,
forming/processing and engineering. Based on these technologies, we will capitalize on open innovation, Internet ofThings (IoT) and AI technologies to accelerate our new value offering.

2 Identification of the

The Toyo Seikan Group’s materiality includes initiatives unique to theGroup, and can be effective for the creation of a sustainable society.
Regarding the “development of packaging containers and services
in line with social needs”, I hope that the Group, with the powerof packaging, will contribute to the food distribution to regions thatare facing food shortage due to severe weather and other harshconditions. As to “more sustainable supply chain”, more careful
control of aluminum across the supply chain will be required since
an international initiative for sustainable aluminum production has
launched in 2015.
The Group made a big step in the selection of its materiality items
since its officers joined the process. In the next step, I hope theGroup will set specific goals and KPIs.

Junichi Mizuo,
Ph.D.(Management)
Professor Emeritus of Surugadai University
President of MIZUO Compliance &Governance Research Office

As setting the materiality is essential to the Toyo Seikan Group’s
development, it should be shared and understood by all employees
as well as officers. To that end, I suggest that the Group conduct
small group discussions or a business model competition thatcan be directly connected to materiality initiatives. Actually, I haveexperienced many opportunities in which new ideas and perspectives
were created through such activities.
For the “development of packaging containers and services in linewith social needs”, I heard the Group has launched cross-functional
teams to address the issue. I suggest launching a new team tocreate new businesses that provide solutions to social issues.

As a supplier of corrugated cardboard products and paper

Package has been granted certifications accredited by the
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), which is an organization ofinternational initiative for responsible forest management focusing
on forest environments.
Eleven of the company’s facilities obtained the certification in
March 2017, and then the other seven facilities acquired it in
October 2017, resulting in all offices and plants nationwide now
being certified. In fiscal 2017, the company sold 4,922 thousandcases of 104 certified items to 4 customers. As the environmental
awareness is rising in Japan with the 2020 Tokyo Olympic games
approaching, the recognition of FSC certification has been rapidly
increasing since the second half of the fiscal 2017.

Combining our proprietary technologies and tapping into technologies across the world, the Toyo Seikan Group willcontribute to achieving a sustainable society from the three perspectives in the value chain of our products, services
and systems.

Subsidiary group companies

The Toyo Seikan Group has been promoting the modal shift, a shift in freighttransportation method from track to railway. In October 2015, Toyo Glass Logistics
began to use two 31-foot containers to switch its product transportation between
Chiba and Shiga Plants to railway freight transport. As a result, the company has
succeeded in an approximately 118 tons of reduction in annual CO2 emissions. In
December 2017, Toyo Seikan and Toyo Mebius also started railway transport of canends between Kanto and Kansai areas, reducing CO2 emissions by approximately
105 tons every year.

ECO Action Plan 2022: Mid-Term Environmental Goals and Progress

Initiatives to Reduce CO2 Emissions

All Toyo Seikan Group companies are working towards the realization of its Group Environmental Vision by achieving
goals based on the ECO Action Plan; a set of specific mid-term environmental goals.

• CO2 Emissions from Business Activities• Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Supply Chains(Scope 1 + Scope 2)
In fiscal 2017, total CO2 emissions from the Toyo SeikanGroup’s facilities, both in Japan and overseas, increased
approximately 1.3% compared to the previous year.
Although CO2 emissions decreased in Japan throughvarious energy-saving efforts by 40 thousand tons fromthe year earlier, the emissions overseas increased due tothe start of full operation of several facilities, more thanoffsetting the reduction in Japan. As a result, the total CO2
emissions from the Group exceeded the previous year’s
amount by 21 thousand tons.
The Group continues to pursue reduction in CO2emissions through its energy-saving initiatives, including
renewal and replacement of equipment, streamlining
production lines and improvement of production efficiency.
For further reduction, the Group is drawing up a plan forlaunching solar power generation.

(Scope 3)
The Toyo Seikan Group conducted a calculation ofgreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from upstream anddownstream of the relevant supply chains (Scope 3
emissions) as well as its direct emissions (Scope 1
emissions generated by fuel combustion) and indirectemissions (Scope 2 emissions generated by electricity
consumption).
The combined GHG emissions from supply chains for
all domestic facilities were 5,992 thousand tons in fiscal
2017, of which Scope 3 emissions accounted for 77%.
Of the Scope 3 emissions, emissions from purchased
products (Category 1) accounted for more than 70%,
followed by emissions from product disposal (Category12) and transportation and distribution (Category 4).
The calculation results show that efforts to reduce GHG
emissions from purchased products, or raw material
procurement, will be more important. We will promotefurther reduction of product weights and more use ofrecycled and renewable materials.

Actual results (Main initiatives)

CO2 emissions: down 7.9%
Energy consumption intensity: down 7.5%

• Reduce CO2 emission
by 6.4%• Reduce energy
consumption by 4%

Through various energy-saving initiatives, including the renewal ofequipment and the improvement of production efficiency, the energy
consumption per unit of production has steadily decreased.
Although CO2 emissions have slightly increased due to the start of fulloperation at a new plant overseas, the goal of CO2 emission reduction
was achieved.

Reduce material input intensity
by 3%

By reducing weights of packages and other products and improving
yield rates (or lowering defective rates) in production lines, the material
input per unit of production has been steadily falling. We continue toseek more efficient use of resources.

The Group reduced the chemical release and transfer subject to the
PRTR (Pollutant Release and Transfer Register) Law by 3% from theprevious fiscal year through its efforts to improve material specifications,such as excluding toluene from printing ink. However, the overall releaseand transfer amount exceeded the target due to significant impact ofincreased use of such chemicals in production processes of certain
products to meet quality requirements.

GovernanceToyo Seikan Group Holdings (the “Company”) believes thatthe enhancement of corporate governance under the Group’s
management philosophy, including its management policy,
creed, and vision, is one of the most important management
issues in improving its corporate value and continuing new
development and progress while contributing to the society
through its business activities. Continuous commitment tothis management issue constitutes our fundamental policy ofcorporate governance.
Based on Japan’s Corporate Governance Code, whichcame into effect on June 1, 2015, we will strive to further
enhance our corporate governance to achieve sustainablegrowth and increase corporate value.

Strategic planning and execution by theManagement Strategy Meetings
The Company has introduced an operating officer system
for the purpose of distinguishing and clarifying responsibilities
for decision-making/supervisory functions and businessexecution. To develop the basic management policy andtake necessary measures swiftly and appropriately forstrong management, it regularly conducts the Management
Strategy Meeting and the Executive Management Meeting;the former is held on a monthly basis and comprised offull-time Directors, Heads in charge of key organizational
functions, Senior Executive Officers, and Executive Officers,
while the latter is scheduled twice a month and attended byfull-time Directors, Heads in charge of key organizational
functions, Senior Executive Officers, and Presidents ofmajor group companies.

Corporate Governance System
The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”)
is composed of fourteen Directors, of whom five are
independent outside Directors, representing more than
one-third of the Board. The Board generally meets once amonth and holds extraordinary meetings as necessary to
make important decisions on management matters. The
term of office for Directors is set at one year in order toclarify Directors’ management responsibility and to flexibly
establish a management framework that can promptly
respond to changes in business environment. The Audit
and Supervisory Board is composed of four auditors, ofwhom two are independent outside auditors. The Audit
and Supervisory Board generally meets once a month andholds extraordinary meetings as needed.
The outside Directors, together with outside Audit andSupervisory Board Members, hold the outside directors’
meeting on a monthly basis in principle, where they havestraightforward discussions to enhance transparency andobjectivity in management. They are also actively engaged
in other duties, including on-site inspections of domestic
and overseas group companies.

Structure of Internal Control System
Operation
The Company and other group companies operate
their internal control systems. The Company has set
up the Internal Audit Office, which is responsible forinternal audit and operates directly under the President,
to ensure corporate activities compliant with laws andregulations and improve efficiency of management. The
state of development and operation of the internal control
systems and their law compliance are checked throughinternal audits that are regularly conducted by the Internal
Audit Office, and, if any issues are identified, improvement
measures will be implemented based on the audit results.

Outside Directors’ Role to Enhance Corporate GovernanceAt the Board of Directors Meeting

What I mostly care about

As an outside auditor, I have attended the Boardof Directors meetings for a year. The meetings had anopen atmosphere that allowed members to provide theiropinions freely, and I remember that all agendas, without
exception, were discussed by officers at every meeting.
The chairman maintained a positive attitude tolistening to members’ opinions, as he often asked
particularly outside directors for a remark evenwhen there were no objections. I understand thiswas because he always paid attention to how thecompany’s stance is viewed by outsiders.

I believe that the social significance of the existenceof a corporation is to contribute not only to its
shareholders’ interests but also to the benefit of allother stakeholders and the entire society.
I have worked at the National Tax Agency Japan overmany years and reviewed how tax laws are applied
to various cases, including individual transactions andindustry-wide business schemes. One of the mostimportant points to be focused on in the work was
how a transaction itself is evaluated in light of social
common sense and whether the tax treatment of thetransaction is in line with the common practice andacceptable to general tax payers. Furthermore, I
believe the tax treatment of a transaction can becomea key factor for a corporation to make a decision on its
business operations.
The board of directors is required to perform fair andappropriate decision-making through a deliberation
process whose reasonableness is guaranteed evenfrom outsiders’ point of view. I understand the rolethat outside directors are expected to assume is tosupervise internal directors’ business execution inorder to keep the stakeholders’ interests intact.
Through providing advice as a tax professional,
I will leverage my knowledge and experience toexamine the appropriateness of scope and content
of information that is included in agendas presented
to the board meeting, as well as the transparency ofthe decision-making process to determine the courseof business management.

Support system for outside directors
I had a lot of opportunities to visit the Group’s factories,
including overseas facilities. These experienceswere truly valuable for deeper understanding of its
business. Although we, outside directors, are notexpected to have knowledge and experience to thesame extent as internal directors do, I believe thatwithout such understanding we are not able to fulfill
our responsibility of stating our opinions to protect the
stakeholders’ interests.
The Group has also established a system toprovide information related to the board meeting,including meeting materials, for members prior tothe meeting so that we are able to prepare for the
discussion in advance.

building acquired an approval of the Shinagawa Fire
Station to an evacuation plan with use of emergency
elevators, which became the first approval for this type ofevacuation plan in the Shinagawa fire district. The plan wasformulated based on the “safety measure for evacuationof the walking disabled from high-rise buildings”, which
was introduced by the Tokyo Fire Department in October
2013. Although guiding people to elevators in fireevacuation is prohibited, the measure allows the walking
disabled to use elevators in fire evacuation with certain
conditions being fulfilled. It is rare for an existing building
to acquire the approval. We succeeded in the acquisition
as a result of discussions with the fire station to install signboards and secure temporary evacuation space.

Accidents
Osaka Plant of Tokan Material Technology conducted an
emergency drill in which a gas leak from the furnace wasassumed. Required procedures were followed according
to the manual: 1)confirm the location of the switch toactivate the emergency gas insulation valve, 2)confirm
that the switch will be turned on when the leakage point
is not identified; and 3)make emergency contact withthe gas company. The company will continue training toensure steady implementation of procedures at the timeof emergency.
