Top Message“The Earth is now a stakeholder.”Always striving to be ahead of the future,
which is vital for sustainability

need cooperation with business partners and consumers, on topof our own efforts, to generate synergies. This is reflected in our
new Scope 3 target, and we will also start disclosure of additional
information to achieve it.
We will work together with our business partners to calculate
and disclose the emissions from individual processes fromprocurement to disposal of various materials, such as metal, plastic
and paper. The disclosure will certainly enhance our commitment
to identifying points to improve and reducing environmental impact.

Formulation of the Group’s firstlong-term management visionand the significance of backcasting

amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Toyo Seikan, an operating companyof the Group, is promoting resource and energy conservation
through the production process of its new aluminum beveragecan, thereby reducing environmental impact. Such production
technology will pave the way for our expanding to European andUS markets. For recycling, we should gain knowledge to promote
PET bottle-to-PET bottle recycling in Japan, as more than 85% ofused PET bottles are recycled in the country but only 15% of them
are currently recycled into PET bottles.

Our recent initiatives are closely linked to our Long-Term
Management Vision 2050 (“The Future, Wrapped for All”), Mid- toLong-Term Management Goals 2030, and Mid-Term Management
Plan 2025, which were launched in May 2021. Backcasting fromthe future we aim for in the long-term management vision, we
identified the interim targets and the current issues. In July, we
announced our support for the recommendations of the Task Forceon Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)(2) to continue tocommunicate our efforts to address climate change to the world
over the long term.
This is the first time in our history that we have formulated along-term management vision that looks ahead 30 years. I havestrongly felt the need to establish a long-term vision in the midst ofa series of events that have a multiple impact on our living, including
natural disasters of larger-scale, increasingly severe environmental
problems, unexpected risk occurrence such as the COVID-19
outbreak, and digital acceleration in the society. Experiencing
these events, I have come to believe that our traditional threeyear management plan alone is not sufficient to take truly effective
measures, and that we as a corporation need to have a solid baseto commit ourselves to tackling social issues.
In developing the vision, younger employees in their twenties
to forties from across group companies joined the process, freely
discussing topics like “what the future looks like” and “what theGroup can do,” while management had their own discussions. Our
long-term vision was formulated by finding a common direction
through such discussions on both sides. Here, I would like to add
one more point. The vision slogan (The Future, Wrapped for All)
uses a word “wrap.” The Chinese character we use to mean “towrap” comes from an ancient pictograph of a pregnant mother who
holds her belly with hands to protect her child in her womb. With
this word, we want to convey our message that we will care about
all human beings.

Setting higher environmental targets
for fiscal 2030

From packaging containers
to “packaging solutions”

We have significantly raised our medium term environmental
targets in the Eco Action Plan 2030, launched in 2019. We clearlystate our commitment to being carbon neutral by 2050, setting new
targets of a 35% reduction in emissions from our operations (Scope
1 & 2) and a 20% reduction in emissions from the supply chain(Scope 3) by fiscal 2030, compared to fiscal 2019.
To “protect the Earth as a stakeholder,” I believe that we

The new long-term vision has set a goal as to what we aim
and want to be: a “daily living platform” for people all over theworld to live safe, secure and fulfilling lives, and our approach toachieve the goal consists of two pillars: “responding to diversity”
and “creating a sustainable society.” We believe that the current
industrial structure with mass production and mass consumption is
no longer sustainable for our planet, and that we can only survive

President and Representative Director
Toyo Seikan Group Holdings, Ltd.

Taking on the challenge of creatinga circular economy
The leaders of the Group of Seven declared in the Communiquéof the G7 summit in June 2021 their commitment to carbon
neutrality, net zero emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050. The
Communiqué also states that they support a green revolution to“protect our planet.” I understood the message as “the Earth has
now come to be a corporate stakeholder as well.”Since the beginning of 2021, the Toyo Seikan Group has madea number of decisions to steadily advance its efforts to addressenvironmental issues. In January, we became the first packaging
manufacturer to join the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK-based
charity which promotes the circular economy(1) around the world.
Many global companies who have joined the foundation are
working together to achieve a circular economy by combining theirknowledge. Dialogue with European companies with a high levelof environmental awareness gives us an insight in finding ways topursue both social contribution and business sustainability.
As demand for cans are growing in Europe and the United States

by maintaining diversity in various forms while protecting theenvironment.
Taking this viewpoint into consideration, the Mid- to Long-Term
Management Goals 2030 aims to achieve JPY 1 trillion in net sales
and JPY 80 billion in operating income for its final year, while we aim
to achieve the Eco Action Plan 2030 for the sake of the society andthe environment. For all these objectives, we have specified key
issues, including exploring, commercializing and monetizing new
growth opportunities, in the Mid-Term Management Plan 2025.
While sales of our packaging segment remains almost flatbeyond fiscal 2025 in our growth strategy, we aim to double the
combined sales of engineering, filling and logistics businesses by
fiscal 2030, compared to the current level, thereby enhancing thefunction of our “packaging solutions.” We are proud that this isa strategy that can only be realized by a corporate group that is
capable of handling all kinds of packaging materials based on thetechnologies it has developed for over 100 years.

Diverse workforce is essential
for driving sustainability
To realize our long-term management vision, it is essential
to develop human resources and to reform the corporate culture
with a vibrant workplace where everyone feels rewarded. I believethat diverse members and outstanding talents promote businesscreation. We therefore strive to foster a new corporate culture
through a number of projects, such as developing an open
recruitment system for employees who want to engage in new
businesses and introducing members who are involved in uniqueactivities outside work in the President’s regular message.
In 2019, operating company Toyo Seikan received a surcharge
payment order from the Japan Fair Trade Commission for violating
the Antimonopoly Act. I would say that such misconduct typicallyoccurs when you turn defensive and become inward-looking.
Now we manage a regular auditing system and conduct various
educational programs to increase compliance awareness. At thesame time, to build a culture that does not allow non-complianceand eradicate the root of misconduct, we desperately need an
established process that keeps our business active with members
who make positive and constructive suggestions, and this is exactly
the process to realize our long-term management vision.
Always strive to be ahead of the future by pursuing an original,
proprietary technology. Even if it takes ten years, or even twenty
years, to realize it, the efforts we make toward the goal should be
the strongest power that drives us to create a sustainable future.

Note:
1. A circular economy aims for a zero-waste system not just by focusing
on the three Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) but by sourcing materials anddesigning products with due consideration to the later stages of theirlifecycle such as collection and recycling processes.
2. 
The TCFD is a task force established by the Financial Stability Board(FSB) at the request of the Group of Twenty (G20). Following the TCFD’s
recommendations on disclosure of climate-related information, we
will conduct a scenario analysis to identify climate-related risks and aqualitative and quantitative assessment of business impact, based on the
results of our climate-related risk materiality assessment.

Developing Packaging Containers
and Services in Line with Social Needs
Interview on the innovation strategy of the Toyo Seikan Group“Device” to activate innovation“Don’t leave past success behind, which would give us a key to future success.”

While research and development activities play a criticalrole in innovation, people involved in R&D tend to focus ontechnical aspects, paying more attention to higher quality andperformance that would secure advantage over rivals in themarket. For “responding to diversity,” however, we should return tomanufacturing that incorporates the perspectives of human beings.
We should remember that, at the time of its founding, the Toyo
Seikan Group did manufacturing with the aim of solving issues
and problems in the society. Today, we find it more difficult to
identify problems that are common to everyone. Even so, we canuse an approach based on human perspectives to find unnoticed
problems.
As a “device” to activate innovation with such approach, in 2019,
we established the Innovation Incubation Office in Japan and the
Future Design Lab (FDL) in Singapore. The new organizations are
the two main engines of our innovation activities with different roles.
The Innovation Incubation Office aims to crate innovations with
the inside-out approach, taking advantage of our strong R&D andproduction abilities and broad customer base. In short, its mission is
to “leverage the Group’s strengths.” So, the office provides venues
and opportunities for group members in all positions from across all
departments and companies to share ideas and objectives.
The FDL, on the other hand, explores new business areas thatare vital for creating new value and growing over the mid- to longterm. It is based in Singapore, where various information and startup
businesses gather. Its mission is “to create strengths of the Group(for the future).” It promotes our participation in leading ecosystems
to adopt new perspectives in our strategies.
With this device for innovation, I hope that we will becomea corporate group that utilizes human perspectives, as well as
business and technological viewpoints that we have already had, toidentify social issues and find solutions with group-wide cooperation
in R&D beyond boundaries of individual organizations in the Group.

Takuji Nakamura
Head of Group Technical Development
Head of Innovation Incubation Office
Toyo Seikan Group Holdings, Ltd.

Roles of the technical development
function in realizing our long-term
management vision
In the Long-Term Management Vision 2050, we aim to becomea corporate group that creates new value that changes the society
beyond the boundaries of packaging manufacturing, focusing
on the three areas of “food and health,” “comfortable living,”and “environment, resources and energy.” Toward this goal, theCorporate R&D and other R&D departments of group companies
are leading the Group’s vigorous R&D activities based on theirproprietary technologies in materials development, forming andprocessing, and engineering.
As the technical development function of the Group, we haveidentified the following three key issues to increase the effectivenessof our activities.
First, we should set themes for R&D that are consistent with thestrategies for management and operations. To effectively use limited
resources, the processes of theme selection, regular reviews, andjudgment to go ahead are all important. We also intend to increase
the weight of new areas in theme selection particularly at the
Corporate R&D, thereby aiming to expand business fields.

10

Next, we need to push up the rate of commercialization of
products and projects that have been developed by R&D activities.
Not a few projects, especially those in new areas, get stuck before
the practical application stage. We need to establish a framework
to promote commercialization.
Finally, we should promote open Innovation. In order to speed
up development, we should not rely too much on our own abilities
but rather explore partnerships with external parties, including
customers, suppliers, universities and venture businesses.

Good results need a plentyof preparation and time
Research and development, particularly for new businessareas, takes a long time to bear fruit. Fortunately, we have now two
projects that are at the final stage before commercialization. They
are related to the energy and healthcare fields, in line with our longterm management vision, though I am not able to tell the details
right now.
We will continue to take on new projects to seamlessly achieve
success in the future.

We also launched a joint program for creating new products andbusinesses with the Makuake Incubation Studio as an opportunity to
put human perspectives into practice. In this program, we develop
prototypes of new product and business ideas by reevaluating
existing or unused technologies of the Group, and carry out
crowdfunding campaigns to gain direct feedback from consumers.
The first round of the program had twenty-one participants fromacross group companies, and the three projects that have passed
the screening by executives are now under preparation for theircrowdfunding projects scheduled next spring. The second roundhas also started its application process. I strongly hope that the newattempts will breathe new life into the Toyo Seikan Group, which has
grown through B-to-B business.

The direction in which
we should move forward
The Toyo Seikan Group has a reputation as a leading packaging
company which has acquired trust from major food and beveragecompanies and household product makers with its ability of handlingvarious materials and its technologies that allow for supplying highquality products at a lower cost.
However, our history shows us a different picture. The Groupis, in fact, a company that has continued to make efforts to identify
social issues that change with the times, find necessary partners,
involve all relevant people from across group companies and support
them, and create innovations—create and establish new cultures inthe society—by effectively taking advantage of its technologies andresources. We should properly understand this point, and then weare able to choose the right direction.

OPEN UP! PROJECT, a group-wide
innovation platform led by Innovation
Incubation Office and FDL
The Innovation Incubation Office and the FDL communicate thedetails of their activities to the whole group and to the outside world
through the OPEN UP! PROJECT.
As an initiative to leverage the Group’s strengths, we invested
in a partnership with Oishii Kenko Inc., a food and healthcaretechnology startup that provides lifestyle solutions for people
to enjoy eating for a lifetime. Through this partnership, we haveredefined the role of packaging from wrapping food to serving as
an important interface for all people, aiming to realize the “Internetof Packaging (IoP).”
As for “creating strengths of the Group,” we invested in a startup
in Singapore, Shiok Meats. It is a food tech company that aims tosolve the social issues in Asia, such as food and protein shortage,
climate change and marine pollution, through the production ofcell-cultured shrimp meat and other crustacean meat. As a foodinfrastructure company, we work together with Shiok Meats andother partners to bring affluent and sustainable dietary habits topeople in Asia.

Visitors to the Museum of Package Culture sketch packaging
designs they dream of on a “Dream Card.” To make their dreams
come true, the One Pack, a group-wide voluntary action platform,
launched a project in which a total of four teams worked to realize
those imaginary packages. Using their individual techniques, theparticipant teams have created the following five works: “Cans are
your friends,” “Bottle with push button to open,” “Container that
opens with your voice,” “Package Town,” and “Conditioning drinkwith flower.” These works were exhibited at the Museum from Juneto September 2021.

Shiok Meats, a food tech startup founded in 2018, has aproprietary technology to isolate stem cells from shrimps andother crustaceans. By producing cell-based seafood with thistechnology, it aims to help solve social issues in Asia, such as
food and protein shortage,

Quality Assurance System
We are engaged in quality assurance activities across thegroup companies according to our quality assurance principles,
which focus on i) providing customers and the society withproducts, systems and services that are safe and reliable, andii) implementing social activities necessary for a corporate groupthat deserves the trust of customers and the society. In April 2019,
Toyo Seikan Group Holdings established the Quality Administration

Department to further reduce quality risk for the entire group. With
our motto “High Quality, Reasonable Prices and Swift Delivery,”which we have been following since the founding of the Group,
we continue with our efforts to earn customer trust by maintaining
and improving quality levels that meet requirements of the times
throughout our operational processes, including development,
procurement, manufacturing, sales and service provision.

Construction of Management System
Each operating company in the Group has constructed aquality management system for maintaining and improving thequality of products and services in accordance with the ISO9001
standards. Among them, companies manufacturing and selling
food containers have also built food safety management systems
based on the FSSC22000 standards, in order to provide safer
products and to increase reliability in the food chain. Toyo Seikan,
Toyo Glass and Mebius Packaging, in particular, have established
a TMS (Total Management System), which integrates the threesystems of quality management, food safety management andenvironmental management (ISO14001 standards-based). The
system integration allows the companies to reduce overlaps
in operations and expand their focus from sub-optimization tototal optimization. Using the dynamic system that links their
management systems closely with actual business activities, they
have been promoting manufacturing that provides customers
with reliability.

Kaizen Activities at Tokan Kogyo
In 2020, Tokan Kogyo started a new initiative, (“No More
Waste at Work!”) to identify and eliminate wasted expenses andprocesses in the workplace. Through a thorough review of thecurrent operations and an active discussion, they have found a
total of 195 cases of wasted money and work, and then began
activities to improve work processes and increase efficiency byremoving unnecessary equipment, changing the floor layout
for most efficient transportation, standardizing the inspection
procedures to reduce time needed, and conducting skill training
programs to reduce improper machine readjustments.
The details of activities at individual plants and departments areshared among all employees through the company’s bulletin board.

The Toyo Seikan Group, which has been dedicating itself to“wrapping” and “packing” for over a century, has been seriously
addressing the issue of “discarding” as well. No matter how
beautiful the container is, how light and easy to carry it is, or how
long it can preserve content, it is doomed to be thrown away inthe end.
Nippon Tokan Packaging is taking on a challenging work on
the packaging technology that focuses on discarding. Corrugatedcardboard is approximately 95% recycled in Japan, and everyone
can easily know how to discard it by looking at its conditions. Usingsuch material, the company has developed the DAN DAN DOME
to comfortably “wrap” people, in collaboration with polar architect
Yusuke Murakami.

Investing in Plastic Recycling Venture, R Plus Japan
Toyo Seikan Group Holdings has set up a joint venture, R Plus
Japan Ltd., together with 12 companies from the plastics value
chain, including Suntory MONOZUKURI Expert Ltd., TOYOBO
CO., LTD. and Rengo Co., Ltd., for plastic recycling business.
The new company started up in June 2020, aiming to create andcommercialize an eco-friendly, efficient plastic recycling systemthat is under development based on the technology of Anellotech
Inc., a US biochemical venture. R-Plus Japan is working towardpractical application of the system by 2027 through the crossindustry cooperation.
The company mainly serves three functions in this project:fundraising, supporting development activities, and driving

commercialization. It has increased the number of investing
partners to 29 (as of July 2021) to secure funds, while working on
development support activities, including analyzing materials andsending the samples to Anellotech as well as sharing informationon competing technologies. The Toyo Seikan Group is supporting
the project by joining the taskforce for technology to conduct
technical research and other activities.
Combining the technologies we have developed across theGroup over many years, we will fulfill our responsibility as a memberof the value chain to contribute to solutions to plastic issues,
working toward a sustainable future.

Expanding Solar Energy Facilities

Participation in Ellen MacArthur Foundation

As part of our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions from operations, we have been introducing
solar power systems to our facilities. Two domestic
facilities, Tokan Kogyo's Komaki Plant and Toyo Kohan's
Kudamatsu Plant, began to operate the system in
December 2020 and in February 2021, respectively.
Outside Japan, Toyo Filling International in Thailand
launched the system in August 2020. We will step up the
introduction of renewable energy as a key measure toaddress global warming going forward.

The Toyo Seikan Grouphas joined the Ellen MacArthur
Foundation (EMF) in the
United Kingdom as the fourth
Japanese company and as thefirst packaging manufacturer,
aiming to gain knowledge about the circular economy and to explore
opportunities to collaborate with other corporations. The EMF is a charity
founded in 2010 with the aim of accelerating the global transition to acircular economy through partnerships with businesses, governments andresearch institutions.
Through workshops hosted by the EMF and joint projects with member
companies, we will make proposals for various packaging solutions suitedfor different regions and countries by taking advantage of our strengths as acomprehensive packaging company, thereby contributing to the realizationof a circular economy. We are currently working on a proposal for a canmaking system that requires less space for installation and has less impact
on the environment.

Toyo Seikan's Kuki Plant and Saitama Plant jointly received aletter of appreciation from the Saitama prefecture government for theircontribution to "Zero Carbon Saitama," a carbon offsetting initiative inthe prefecture.
Through its activities to upgrade equipment and improve
production efficiency during the period from 2011 to 2014, Toyo
Seikan has obtained carbon credits (net reduction in emissions) ofapproximately 159 thousand tons of CO2 equivalent, far exceeding
the reduction target set in the initiative, and decided to donate these
credits in response to the call of the local government. The company
will continue with its efforts to be a corporation that helps create asustainable society.

Toyo Seikan and Toyo
Mebius have been certified
as Eco Ship Mark Businesses
for 2020 in the Eco Ship
Modal Shift Project, led by
the government and shipping
companies in Japan. The
project gives certifications
to shippers and logistics
companies that are actively engaged in reducing emissions
by shifting to ocean transport, which is highly efficient andenvironmentally friendly. In 2020, the two group companies
were recognized for changing the transportation methodfrom truck to ocean for part of their product shipments(approximately 400 truckloads annually) between the Kansai
and Kyushu areas in Japan. They will continue to advance theircommitment to reducing environmental impact for the creationof a sustainable world, as a member of the Toyo Seikan Group.

Revision of Mid-Term Environmental Targets “Eco Action Plan 2030”

Targets for 2030 and Progress in FY2020

The Eco Action Plan 2030, formulated in fiscal 2019, is a set of quantitative environmental targets
for the Group to achieve by 2030, the target year of the SDGs, through the activities to address climate change,
promote resource recycling, deal with marine plastic pollution and conserve biodiversity. Recently we have revised
our Environmental Vision, which had previously aimed for a "low-carbon society" but now aims to achieve carbon
neutrality by 2050 toward a “zero-carbon society,” and have also raised the mid-term targets for fiscal 2030.
We will effectively implement our plan by taking specific measures to reduce the environmental impacts.

The table below shows the progress we made in fiscal 2020 based on the Eco Action Plan 2030.
Evaluation: ★★★ Achieved

Resource Recycling

We will reduce carbon emissions from our operations (Scope 1
emissions directly from fuel combustion and Scope 2 emissions
indirectly from electricity consumption) as well as emissions from the
upstream and downstream of our supply chain (Scope 3 emissions).
We have set our reduction targets focusing particularly on theemissions associated with procurement (purchased products
and services) and disposal of products we sold, which accountfor a significant portion of the total emissions from the entire
supply chain.
In July 2021, we officially announced our support for
the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related
Financial Disclosure (TCFD). We will conduct a scenario analysis
to identify climate-related risks and opportunities and a qualitativeand quantitative assessment of business impact based on
the results of our climate-related risk materiality assessment.

We will switch materials used for our products from fossilbased to recycled and renewable materials, including plant-based
plastics. In setting the numerical targets, we placed high priority
on transforming the current system that relies on single-use
products into a “circular” system by minimizing the consumptionof exhaustible resources and designing easily recyclable products.

We provide a lot of plastic products for the society but find it
difficult to solve the problem of ocean plastic litter just by ourselves.
We will cooperate with all partners in our value chain to continue
to address this issue.

Toward a Zero-Carbon Society

Achieving a Zero-Waste Society

As part of our efforts to address climate change, we are implementing various measures to achieve carbon neutrality. In fiscal 2021,
we started a multifaceted review of sourcing and use of energy at the Osaki Forest Building (Shinagawa, Tokyo), where Toyo Seikan Group
Holdings and other major group companies are headquartered, and at the Corporate R&D (Yokohama, Kanagawa), the basic research lab of
the Group.

Our group companies produce packaging containers andmaterials by processing raw materials from exhaustible resources,
such as metal and petroleum. We therefore believe we have a great
responsibility for an efficient use of resources through reducing
material input and waste and recycling materials. Under the Eco
Action Plan 2030, we are taking measures to achieve the 30 %reduction target for the use of exhaustible resources toward a zerowaste society.
In addition to our ongoing efforts to develop more lightweightcontainers, we are also working on expanding the use ofrecycled materials. Using more recycled metals in our cans andmore recycled or plant-derived resins in our plastic containers
will help us achieve the targets of the action plan and eventually
help solve social issues. These activities should not only lead toan effective use of resources but also reduce emissions from thematerial production process, and they are also important from theperspective of combating climate change.

CO2 Emissions from Operations (Scope 1 & 2)
In fiscal 2020, total carbon emissions from the Group’s facilities
in Japan and abroad decreased 8% from the previous year to
1,381 thousand tons.
The emissions from the domestic facilities declined by 111
thousand tons from the year earlier as a result of lower production,

replacement of air compressors, periodic repair of melting furnaces
and other energy-saving activities, while those from overseas
facilities decreased by 2 thousand tons year on year.
We continue to engage in cutting carbon footprint in fiscal
2021 through energy-saving efforts, including replacing equipment,
streamlining production lines and improving production efficiency.

* The figures for the previous years have been retroactively revised due to a change in the electricity grid emissions factor and the addition and correction of datafor certain facilities.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Supply Chain (Scope 3)
The Toyo Seikan Group calculates the amount of greenhousegas emissions from the upstream and downstream of the supply
chain (Scope 3) as well as the amount of emissions from its
operations (Scope 1: direct emissions from fuel combustion, andScope 2: indirect emissions from electricity consumption). Under ourenvironmental vision Eco Action Plan 2030, we aim to reduce the
Scope 3 emissions 20% by fiscal 2030 compared to fiscal 2019.
In fiscal 2020, the Scope 3 emissions associated with our

GHG Emissions from Supply Chain (FY2020)
Total: 5,159
Scope 1: 367

Unit: thousand tons

domestic operations accounted for approximately 80% of thetotal emissions from the Group’s domestic operations and supply
chain. Of the total Scope 3, the emissions from purchased
products (Category 1) accounted for approximately 73%, followedby disposal of sold products (Category 12) and capital goods(Category 2). This indicates that reducing emissions related topurchased products (e.g. material procurement) is becoming
more and more important. We will continue to work together withmaterial suppliers on reducing product weights and using morerecycled and plant-based materials.

The Toyo Seikan Group has been working on developing,
manufacturing and selling low environmental impact products,
considering their entire lifecycle. We have certified several productsof the Group as eco-conscious products based on our group-widestandards for evaluation in the stages of raw material procurement,
production, transportation, consumption and disposal/recycling.
As of the end of October 2021, a total of 65 items have beencertified as eco-conscious products, for which the details areprovided on the website of Toyo Seikan Group Holdings (only inJapanese).
Going forward, we expect that the development andcommercialization of eco-conscious products will contribute toachieving the targets of Eco Action Plan 2030.
We will strive to develop products keeping
in mind the reduction of waste and recyclingat their end of life so that they will be widely
accepted in the market.

Risk Management of Production Facilities
Harmful substances and waste liquid that flow out of plants
have a long-lasting adverse impact on the surrounding environment.
While group companies have been individually implementing risk
management with their environment management systems, weare now enhancing our risk management framework. We identify
equipment and facilities that carry high risks of environmental
accidents based on the degrees of deterioration in facilities andthe characteristics of substances handled by individual plants.
The management of piping and storage tanks are given special
attention since a leakage from such equipment would have amaterial impact.

Addressing Marine Plastic Pollution

Engagement through Clean Ocean Material Alliance
In January 2019, the Clean Ocean Material Alliance (CLOMA)
was established with a wide range of business operators
participating to address marine plastic pollution, an emerging global
challenge. The CLOMA is aimed at promoting a new 3R (reduce,reuse, recycle) initiative toward more sustainable use of plastic
products and the development and introduction of alternative
materials through public-private collaboration. Toyo Seikan Group
Holdings has joined the alliance as a managing partner since thepreparation phase and has been working as a key member of a
subcommittee of CLOMA to share information and enhance the
network with partners from across industries.
In 2020, the CLOMA Action Plan was launched to achieveadvanced plastic recycling systems as a solution to marine plastic
pollution. To implement specific measures under the plan, threeother companies of the Group (Toyo Seikan, Tokan Kogyo andNippon Closures) joined the CLOMA in fiscal 2020 and Mebius

Human Rights in Labor-Management
Relations
The Toyo Seikan Group's Guidelines of Behavior state that "weunderstand and respect internationally recognized human rights,
including freedom of association, the right to collective bargaining
and living wages, as well as laws concerning human rights incountries where we operate." We are actively working on sharing
information and discussing solutions to various issues with thelabor union.
Labor unions have been organized at several groupcompanies. (The union membership rate among the employees of
the consolidated group companies is 53.9% as of end of March
2021.)At labor-management meetings, we actively discuss various
themes, such as work style reform, health and safety, and welfare,to build and maintain sound labor-management relations throughcommunication among management, the union and employees.

4) T he results of employee surveys have revealed that there areseveral organizations with problems in the Group.
5) The percentage of female managers is lower than that offemale workers in the total employees.

Co-Creation of Diverse Talent
In order for the Toyo Seikan Group to enhance its competitivenessand continue to grow over the long term, each employee needs tomake full use of their own abilities for their individual growth andfor the Group’s development. To this end, it is essential to createa corporate culture in which every one of us accepts both visible
diversity, including differences in gender, nationality and disability,
and invisible diversity, including differences in perspective.
Focusing on “responding to diversity,” one of the two pillars of
the Group’s Long-Term Vision 2050, we are developing a humantalent platform that can create new value.

Inclusion of People with Disabilities
We aim to create a work environment that allows all employees,
regardless of disabilities, to comfortably work. For example, we
are working on improving facilities in the head office building,including barrier-free, multi-functional restrooms on each floor, andintroducing a voice-to-text app for the hearing impaired.
As for efforts in employment, several group companies andplants are exploring opportunities to recruit people with disabilities
through training programs at local special education schools.
There is also a group company that provides such people with
opportunities to work as its employees on contracted farms to help
revitalize local communities.
We as a whole group will continue our engagement, aiming
to achieve the mandatory employment rate for disabled workers.

Promoting Active Engagement of Older Workers

Employing Foreign Nationals

While the mandatory retirement age is set at 60, approximately
70% of workers at the retirement age in the Group have chosen tocontinue to work under our reemployment program, which secures
opportunities to work up to the age 65. (In fiscal 2020, a total of
439 people at the age of 60 continued their employment at Toyo
Seikan Group Holdings and six major group companies.)
We are working on the succession of techniques and skills
by assigning an educational role to the reemployed, experienced
workers. We are also promoting automation in production facilities
to reduce a burden of carrying heavy loads so that everyone cancontinue to work for a long time.

We are recruiting international students, returnee students
and other talented individuals who can globally contribute to thedevelopment of our overseas operations, without setting any
restrictions on application.
We also accept trainees from Southeast Asian nations andother countries for both adding our workforce and providing
technical support for developing countries under Japan’s foreigntechnical internship program.

Supporting Sexual Minorities (LGBT)
Our Management Creed states that “we will honor dignity
and always strive to be fair and unbiased in every way,” while
our Guidelines of Behavior emphasizes respecting human rights,
accepting diversity, and prohibiting discrimination, harassment andabuse. We are aiming to create a workplace where the humanrights and personalities of all workers are respected.
Specifically, the Guidelines of Behavior, established ascommon standards to be complied with by all officers andemployees in our group, clearly states that “we do not discriminate
on the grounds of nationality, race, ethnic group, religion, belief,
gender, age, disability or sexual orientation,” which is shared
among the employees. In addition to this ethical approach, we aretaking a regulatory approach to prevent discrimination. The work
rules of individual group companies prohibit anyone from causing
distress or disadvantages for other workers or harming the work
environment with words or actions related to sexual orientation orgender identity.
We have also established internal and external whistleblowing
systems that allow employees to report or consult on any kindof harassment or abuse and any other subject while remaining
anonymous.

Encouraging More Active Participation of Women
We are implementing the General Employers Action Plan wehave formulated under the Japanese Act on the Promotion of
Female Participation and Career Advancement in the Workplace
and the Act on Advancement of Measures to Support Raising
Next-Generation Children.

Current issues to address

1) The percentage of women in the total labor force is still low.
2) The retention rate of female workers with 10 years of service
is lower than that of male workers.

Actions to achieve the targets:
We will implement specific measures corresponding toindividual workers in different career stages, including at the timeof joining the company and during maternity and childcare leave,by facilitating information sharing among group companies,
especially by personnel departments. We will also develop ascheme to improve communication skills of supervisors andraise career awareness of female workers themselves.
To continue our ongoing initiatives to increase female
recruits, we are introducing equipment to reduce workload inproduction processes and developing and enhancing systems
to accommodate diverse work styles.

Female Workers Playing Active Rolesin Production Lines

Toyo Kohan employed additional four women as line operators
in fiscal 2020, following the previous year, when the company for the
first time recruited female shift workers in the production division. To
create a better workplace for women and all workers, the company
has been improving workers’ facilities, such as changing rooms
and toilets, and the work environment on the production floor by
introducing work assist equipment. In fiscal 2020, there was a free
talk meeting attended by
women in their second year
in the production line and the
new recruits. They enjoyedtalking about various topics
from valuable work advice toprivate life matters.

Taking Action Based on the Resultsof Workplace Environment Survey
In October 2019, Tokan Kogyo conducted a workplaceenvironment survey by questionnaire for all its employees in order
to identify the actual status of the work environment and step up
efforts for improvement.
In fiscal 2020, after sharing the survey results with theemployees by using the company newsletter, the company
implemented the following actions.

1. P osition specific educational programs
The e-learning programs to prevent harassment and abuse wereconducted for managers and for general employees. (February 2021)
2. S tricter compliance with company rules
Since there were many cases of violating rules particularly related
to non-smoking hours in the workplace, individual divisions took
measures for encouraging self-control by employees for stricter
compliance.
3. Training program for the staff operating the internal reporting
systemInviting an external lecturer, a training program was conducted
for the staff managing the internal reporting system to acquirenecessary skills as well as to learn the points of the internalreporting system, such as confidentiality. (December 2020)
4. Further dissemination of the internal reporting system
The company promoted the dissemination of the internalreporting system by creating posters to encourage employees to
use the system to report harassment and other non-compliancein the workplace.

Tokan Kogyo also plans to hold a conference for plant managers
and managers of sales offices and other departments to discussand share opinions to eliminate harassment, during fiscal 2021.

Promoting Digitalization

Remote Work Skills Training Program

Promoting working from home since the first state of emergency
was declared in April 2020, Nippon Closures has recognizeddigitalizing work processes as an urgent issue and been enhancing
infrastructure and developing systems to promote digitalization.
In fiscal 2020, the company introduced the Zoom platform as acommunication tool, changing the company-owned cell phones
to iPhone for Zoom meetings, and purchased additional iPhones
and iPad tablets to facilitate meetings online. It has also introduced
an electronic fax system to enable sales office workers to workfrom home, as they handle paper documents with customers,
and begun operating an electronic approval system for digitized
application procedures without personal seals. There are alsoplans to start operating an electronic seal system and to replaceinternal infrastructure systems during fiscal 2021.

With its management philosophy focusing on valuing all
employees and seeking continuous creation and innovation,
Nippon Closures recognizes that the development of humanresources is one of the most important issues in management.
The company conducts educational programs on selected themes
several times a year under its talent development system, NCC
Learning Support Program, for employees who apply on a voluntarybasis. In fiscal 2020, there was a remote work skills training
program for employees working from home, inviting an external
lecturer who is an expert in online communication with a uniquebackground as a TV announcer. The participants learned about
self-management to stay motivated when working from home andonline communication skills for higher performance. The total of 28
participants, including new recruits and general managers, vary inage and experience at NCC but are all beginners when it comesto telework. The workshop, a little unique compared to ordinary
programs designed for specific ranks, gave them an exciting andvaluable experience.

We have set a health management indicator for the entire
group based on the health management surveys conducted by
the six primary group companies in order to identify health-related
issues in the Group. The indicator is used as a target for the three
years from fiscal 2021 to implement the Group’s personnel policy.
The indicator has been determined through the discussion of
the Group Occupational Health Committee and approved by theGroup Health Management Promotion Meeting. We will promotehealth management using the PDCA cycle approach to planning,taking measures, evaluating results and reviewing next steps.

Seminar to Be a Better Sleeper

Establishing Group’s Common HealthManagement Indicator

In September 2017, as part of our initiatives to maintain andenhance employees’ health, we launched a campaign to “achieve acomplete smoke-free workplace during work hours for all domestic
facilities,” and the campaign has been expanding among domestic
group companies.
They are actively taking measures to prevent passive smoking
and to help employees quit smoking. Such measures include
gradual removal of smoking spots in plants and offices andfinancial aid to use smoking cessation outpatient services. In
addition, we provide various useful information through messages
from the occupational health nurses using the intranet and thecompany letters as well as with posters to encourage smokers tostop smoking.

Online Seminar for Stretching Exercises
With the COVID-19 pandemic urging people stay home andworking from home, Toyo Seikan held four sessions of an online
stretching exercise seminar, with each session setting different
objectives, to help employees improve and prevent stiff shoulders
and lower back pain caused by staying at home as well as toencourage them to exercise more. Executive directors who joined
the program in person learned the points of stretching exercise
from the instructor and showed the learners attending online how
to do an exercise that is simple and can be done while sitting. For
continuous exercises after theseminar, the video of the seminaris distributed on the intranet. The
company will continue to help
employees prevent sickness,
improve their physical conditionand establish an exercise habit.

In November 2020, we invited an external lecturer to hold awebinar on how to sleep better. Approximately 360 employees
from across group companies attended and learned points ofgood sleep, including basic knowledge about sleep and practicalmethods to have a good night’s sleep. The average usefulness
score shown in the post-seminar questionnaire was as high as
97%. At a later date, sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) testing was
also conducted for 200
voluntary participants for better
understanding of their own
sleep issues. Based on the test
results, they were given sleep
counseling and referrals to
medical providers as follow-up.

in assistant manager or higher positions.
The seminar was successfully conducted online, connecting
all plants and offices, to prevent COVID-19 infection. The lecturer
discussed “the importance of mental health measures in the workplace”
and “the risk of lifestyle diseases caused by sleep disorders.” Theparticipants
understoodthatestablishing healthy daily habits witha good rhythm and routine is an
important self-care method to havea better sleep.

Seminar on Cervical Cancer Prevention
In October 2020, Toyo Glass held a seminar on the cervicalcancer, a health problem specific to women. The program
discussed the danger of cervical cancer and provided informationon the provision of testing kits to diagnose human papillomavirus
infection, which can lead to cervical cancer. The seminar was
conducted online, with 51 people attending through a videoconference system connecting plants and offices. The cervicalcancer is the only preventable cancer, and the right knowledge canhelp prevent the disease and detect it at an early stage. We willcontinue to enhance the health literacy of our members throughvarious activities like this seminar going forward.

Acquired Certification for Health and Safety
Management System in Indonesia (SMK3)

Introducing VR Simulation System for Hazards

In January 2020, PT. TOMATEC INDONESIA received certification
under the Indonesian national standards for occupational safety andhealth management system (SMK3) regulated by the Ministry of
Health of Indonesia.
There are 166 criteria in the standards for occupational safety
and health management, and fulfilling 60 to 84 percent of thecriteria is considered to be at the adequate level and 85 to 100
percent at the fully sufficient level. The company has been certified
with a 95.18 percent qualification rate.
The company will continue to enhance its occupational healthand safety management system, led by the administration teamsof quality assurance, environmental protection, and occupational
health and safety.

Tokan Kogyo has started a safety training program using avirtual reality simulation system for hazardous incidents at its head
office and plants since July 2020.
The system uses the virtual reality technology to create artificial
sensory experiences, such as sight, sound and touch, and enables
users to safely experience dangerous incidents. Users can learn
accidents that they are unable to learn through actual experience,
including falling from a stepladder or being caught in a conveyor,
not only visually but by sensing the impact with a weak electric
current. The experiences throughtheir senses allow the participants torealize that such risks could happen
to themselves and to increase
their hazard sensitivity* and safety
awareness.

Toyo Seikan Group Holdings, Ltd.

In the TLP training course, I learned a commercialization
method using the fundamentals of technology
management. In the team discussion, I worked withmembers from across group companies on creating new business ideas based on
the technologies of individual group companies, taking account of possible majorchanges and accompanying issues in the future. Finally, we created a new businessplan and presented it to management. All activities in this training, except for theinterim presentation meeting, were conducted online because of the COVID-19
pandemic. Therefore I felt it took some time for the team members to get closer
together, while I believe that there was a benefit of online work because it gave us
many opportunities to discuss remotely, allowing us to be strongly united.
Going forward, I hope I will contribute to the Group’s development by making
the most of the human network I have gained through this training.

Preparing for the possible need to disinfect the workplace due
to COVID-19 infection, TOMATEC held a cleaning and disinfecting
workshop, inviting a lecturer from the cleaning service company
that is contracted to clean the head office and the Osaka Plant.
The participants were instructed on the right way to wear and takeoff jackets, gloves, goggles and masks and the procedures todisinfect the workplace while avoiding exposure to the virus.
The workshop was recordedwith the permission of the cleaning
company, and the video is available

In January 2021, the Chiba Plant of Toyo Glass received

Corporate GovernanceCompliance
We value dignity, and are engaged in daily efforts to ensure fairness and equality in all aspects of our business activities in order to meetthe expectations of society.

Our Perspective on Corporate Governance

Executive Structure

We believe that the enhancement of corporate governanceunder the Group’s management philosophy, including its
management policy, creed, and vision, is one of the mostimportant management issues in improving our corporate value
and continuing development and evolution while contributing to
the society through our business activities. Based on this point ofview, Toyo Seikan Group Holdings (the “Company”) has formulated
the “Basic Corporate Governance Policy” to continuously address
this issue.
Based on Japan’s Corporate Governance Code, which cameinto effect on June 1, 2015, we will strive to further enhance ourcorporate governance to achieve sustainable growth and increase
corporate value.

The Company has introduced an operating officer system
to ensure management efficiency and flexibility as well as todistinguish and clarify responsibilities for decision-making/supervision and business execution. It conducts on a monthly
basis the Management Strategy Meeting, which consists of fulltime Directors, Heads in charge of key organizational functions,and Executive Officers. The Company also holds twice a month inprinciple the Executive Management Meeting, which is attended byfull-time Directors, Heads in charge of key organizational functions,Executive Officers, and Presidents of major group companies.
The Company provides its directors and officers withtraining opportunities as needed to support them in acquiringand continuously updating necessary knowledge for appropriate
performance of their duties.
The Company has also established the Governance Committee,
a voluntarily established consultative body consisting of therepresentative director and the five independent outside directors.
The committee is designed for more objective, transparent andtimely decision-making of the Board of Directors regarding such
issues as the appointment of representative directors and director
and auditor candidates and the remuneration of directors andofficers. In fiscal 2020, the committee held a total of four meetings.

Structures of Outside Directors and Auditors
The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is composedof eleven Directors, of whom five are independent outside Directors,
representing more than one-third of the Board. The Board
generally meets once a month and holds extraordinary meetings asnecessary to make important decisions on management matters.
There were 13 board meetings in fiscal 2020 (ended March 2021).
The term of office for Directors is set at one year in order to clarify
Directors’ management responsibility and to flexibly establish amanagement framework that can promptly respond to changes
in business environment. The Audit and Supervisory Board iscomposed of five auditors, of whom three are independent outside
auditors. The Audit and Supervisory Board generally meets oncea month and holds extraordinary meetings as needed. There were
13 meetings of the Audit and Supervisory Board in fiscal 2020.
In addition to active discussions at the Board meetings,
these outside Directors and outside Audit and Supervisory Board
Members conduct monitoring on management from an objective,
outsider’s perspective, which allows the Company to ensure thatsurveillance function regarding its management structure works
effectively.

Structure of Internal Control System Operation
The Company and other group companies operate theirinternal control systems. The Company has set up the Internal
Audit Office, which operates directly under the President, to ensurethat corporate activities comply with laws and regulations andimprove the efficiency of management. The status of development
and operation of the systems and law compliance is checked

programs for approximately 15,000 employees (managers, leadersand general employees) from 41 group companies to allow themto recognize the risks and causes of harassment and abuse
and to help change their behavior. The program for managers
focused on how to deal with harassment that has occurred or
been reported and what preventive measures to be taken, whilethat for general employees focused on learning typical cases andcountermeasures. With all employees, regardless of generation,
raising their awareness and sharing a common understanding of
harassment problems, the Group is aiming to create a corporate

measures against infection. In addition to attendees at the plant,
43 employees from the head office, the Komaki Plant and otherfacilities joined the meeting through a video conference system.

the family is suspected to be infected.

including boosting ourown immunity, wearing
a mask properly tomake the strings fit well,thorough hand washing
and alcohol disinfection,and staying away fromcrowd.

Confidential Information Management
Tokan Kogyo has been engaged in education for confidential
information management as part of its risk management. In fiscal
2020, the company provided feedback on the results of selfinspections conducted by individual departments to check thestatus of confidential information handling.
While the company has been discussing and developing
a framework for confidential information management taking
account of working from home and satellite offices, it has now
come to focus more on the prevention of information leakage
during teleworking, which has rapidly increased as a measure toprevent COVID-19 infection. From this point of view, the company
has newly established the Guidelines for Confidential Information
Management at Teleworking by integrating several information
management-related rules, which had been stipulated in different
regulations of the company, such as the Confidential Information
Management Rules. The company also revised the Confidential
Information Management Rules, adding “product samples” asconfidential information, creating the “confidential information
label” and sharing it within the company.
In fiscal 2021, Tokan Kogyo plans to create educational
materials on confidential information handling, which will be shared
among all employees.
