Strategy
Risks and opportunities related to climate change
Toward the realization of a sustainable society, the Teijin Group is striving to contribute to climate change mitigation through the supply of“Environmental value solutions” utilizing our technologies for reducing weight and increasing efficiency that we have fostered so far and toclimate change adaptation through the supply of “Safety, security, and disaster mitigation solutions” that will be useful in reducing andpromptly restoring from the damage by natural disasters.
In addition, since the Teijin Group engages in wide-ranging business globally, we recognize that our business activities do place a considerable
burden on the global environment. Premising our approach on the ensuring of safety, we endeavor to reduce this environmental load with theaim of achieving the sustainable growth of both society and the company.
When formulating the Medium-Term Management Plan 2020-22, we analyzed the opportunities and risks relating to the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) by thinking backwards on how to achieve our vision in 2030. During this analysis, we identified climate changerelated opportunities for each business and incorporated them into our business strategies. We have decided to allocate resources (capital
expenditures and other investments) to Environmental Value Solutions (including solutions for climate change mitigation such as lightweightsolutions) and Safety, Security, and Disaster Mitigation Solutions (including solutions for climate change adaptation) with the aim of expanding
our businesses.
In addition, we analyzed the impact of climate change risks on our operations from the three perspectives listed below. Based on this analysis,
we have established long-term environmental targets and are making efforts to reduce our CO2 emissions accordingly. In FY2020, we formulateda road map for achieving these targets. We also raised our target for CO2 emissions reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 in July 2021 andformulated a new target for CO2 emissions reduction in Scope 3.

Roadmap for reducing CO2 emissions
The Teijin Group seeks to achieve net zero CO2 emissions by 2050 through the early phase-out of all coal-fired power generation facilities and atransition to renewable energy sources for electricity.

Teijin Group Sustainability Website Content 2021

Introduction of internal carbon pricing system*
The Teijin Group established and introduced an internal carbon pricing (ICP) system* targeting capital expenditure plans throughout the Group
that can lead to an increase/decrease in CO2 emissions in FY2020 and began application starting with capital expenditures in FY2021. Under the
new ICP system, we apply a uniform internal carbon price (€50/t-CO2) Groupwide and globally, thereby quantifying CO2 emissions as costs that
we can consider when making investment decisions. Through the launch of this system, we will promote capital expenditure plans that help
reduce CO2 emissions with the aim of achieving our long-term goals for CO2 emissions reduction and prepare the Company for expected futurerises in global carbon prices.
* A system that creates economic incentives to reduce CO2 emissions by establishing internal carbon prices to quantify CO2 emissions as costs, thereby promoting internal
efforts to respond to climate change

Scenario analysis related to climate-change
After identifying businesses and industries that have the potential to be significantly impacted by climate change, the Teijin Group has been
conducting an analysis of the level of this impact based on the 2ºC scenario and the 4ºC scenario,* referencing World Energy Outlook, publishedby the International Energy Agency (IEA).
* 2ºC scenario: IEA WEO Sustainable Development Scenario/IEA WEO 450; 4ºC scenario: IEA WEO Stated Policies Scenario

Regarding trends in the aviation industry and the automobile industry, which are the customers of our carbon fiber and composites businesses
and could be significantly impacted by climate change, we carried out an analysis of the 2℃ and 4℃ scenarios in FY2019. The results of theanalysis showed that in the 2℃ scenario, although there was a drop in demand compared with the 4℃ scenario in the aviation industry, theimpact on business strategy and earnings was slight since the use of lightweight materials can be assumed to be increased. Also, in theautomobile industry, in the 2℃ scenario, while the demand for electric vehicles and the need for lighter weight increased, the rising trend of car
sharing limited the increase in car sales. In the 4℃ scenario, while there was a rise in the number of car sales, the need for lighter weight waslimited, and the positive and negative impacts on demand cancelled each other out. In both scenarios, it was confirmed that the impact of thedifference on demand was either slight or fifty-fifty, so there would be no serious impact on business strategy or earnings.
In FY2020, we reviewed our base scenario in light of the changing trends in the aviation industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic and revised ourplans for profits in the carbon fibers business following the decline in demand for carbon fiber intermediate materials for aircraft. We will keep aclose eye on trends and consider the appropriate timing of investments and resource distribution.

Risk Management
Groupwide management methods for climate change risks
The Teijin Group has in place a Total Risk Management (TRM) system targeting both strategic and operational risks, as a preventative measureagainst the uncertainty that the Company may face.
Physical risks and transitional risks due to climate change are managed under our TRM system and analyzed along with other risks through TRM
risk assessment. In this way, we identify important risks. In addition to formulating BCPs to respond to physical risks, we are monitoring thestatus of CO2 emissions both in Japan and overseas, including at affiliated companies.

Risk management structure
1. Each business implements risk management in accordance with the frontline operations.
2. CSRO confirms and makes instructions on the risk management status of each business at the CSR Committee and the CSRO review.
3. CSRO reports and makes proposals related to Groupwide risk management at the TRM Committee, followed by discussions andinstructions.
4. CSRO reports the contents of discussions at the TRM Committee to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors deliberates onbasic TRM plans.
Risk Management

Indicators and Targets
Under Medium-Term Management Plan 2020-2022, the Teijin Group has established long-term targets for reducing its environmental impact. To
accelerate efforts to realize net zero CO2 emissions, in July 2021 we raised the FY2030 target for Groupwide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
from a 20% reduction compared with FY2018 to a 30% reduction. We also established a new target for reducing GHG emissions in the supply
chain*--a 15% reduction by FY2030 compared with FY2018. With the aim of having these targets approved by the Science Based Targets
initiative, we adopted calculation methods based on the GHG Protocol as opposed to the calculation methods previously used, which werebased on the Law Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with Global Warming.

* Covers Scope 3 emissions in Category 1 (purchased goods and services) except trading businesses

Teijin Group Sustainability Website Content 2021

Avoided CO2* emissions
The Teijin Group aims to reduce CO2 emissions throughout the entire supply chain by using its long-cultivated technologies for reducing weightand increasing efficiency. Also, we calculate the impact of using our products on reducing CO2 emissions in the downstream supply chain as“avoided emissions.” By fiscal 2030, we aim to make the amount of our avoided emissions larger than our total emissions, which comprise ourGroupwide CO2 emissions and CO2 emissions from the upstream supply chain (Scopes 1 and 2 and upstream Scope 3).
* Includes CO2, methane, and N2O

Scope 3.

Group CO2 emissions
In FY2020, Group CO2 emissions decreased 4% compared with the previous year, to 1.37 million t-CO2 , due to a decrease of about 0.15 million
t-CO2 resulting from our low operating rate caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the transfer of the film business, which offset an increase of
0.09 million t-CO2 following our transition to emission calculation methods based on the GHG Protocol. This result represented a 7% decrease*in emissions compared with FY2018. In FY2020, Scope 1 emissions were 0.71 million t-CO2 , and Scope 2 emissions were 0.66 million t-CO2 .
Toward the realization of a carbon-free society, we are working to abolish all in-house power facilities that use coal-fired thermal power as earlyas possible and gradually replace our current source of electricity with renewable energy sources. By doing so, we are working to decouple ourbusiness growth with greenhouse gas emissions.
* Comparisons with data from the base year, FY2018, that have been recalculated based on the GHG Protocol

Trends in Group CO2 Emissions* Includes CO2, methane, and N2O. CO2 emissions data for FY2019 and earlier was calculated based on the Law Concerning the Promotion of the Measures to Cope with
Global Warming, while data for FY2020 was calculated based on the GHG Protocol. Although we deducted the amount of CO2 emissions equivalent to the amount ofenergy sold to other companies from the data for FY2019 and earlier, this amount has not been deducted from the data for FY2020. In addition, the scope of calculation for
FY2020 includes non-energy-derived CO2 emissions from carbon fiber production, calculated based on the chemical reaction balance.

Teijin Group Sustainability Website Content 2021

Supply Chain CO2 Emissions
In FY2020, Scope 3 emissions in Category 1 were 3.31 million t-CO2* .
The target indicator for supply chain CO2 emissions (Scope 3 emissions in Category 1 except trading businesses) for FY2020 was a 5% reduction
compared to FY2018, mainly due to a decrease in production activities as a result of effects from COVID-19.
* The calculation criteria for Category 1 are as follows:
Category 1 emissions are calculated by multiplying the purchased weight or purchased value of purchased goods and services by the emissions intensity in units ofweight or value. Products procured through the Teijin Group's trading businesses are also included in the Category 1 calculation. Also, emissions intensity data formonetary units is from the Ministry of the Environment's Emissions Unit Values for Accounting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions, etc., by Organizations Throughout theSupply Chain (Ver. 3.1) (March 2021) (Emissions Unit Values Database V. 3.1). Emissions intensity data for weight units is based on the intensity data of the Ecoinvent
Database (operated by Ecoinvent Association) or the GaBi Database (operated by Sphera).

Reducing CO2 emissions associated with use of company vehicles
In Japan, the Teijin Group set independent numerical reduction targets by business site for CO2 emissions associated with the use of company
vehicles. Common measures include updating vehicles used for sales activities to eco-cars and recommending fuel-efficient driving. These
measures have achieved a reduction in CO2 emissions per distance traveled.
Due in parts to effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, total CO2 emissions related to the use of company vehicles in FY2020 were 5,137 tons
(20% reduction compared to FY2019).

Efforts to reduce CO2 emissions from offices
We are taking measures to improve the efficiency of energy use at Teijin Limited, group company head offices, sales branches and otherbusiness sites. A particular measure in summer/winter, besides encouraging suitable operation of office air-conditioning, is the Teijin Cool
Biz/Warm Biz initiative, which encourages clothing appropriate for the season (dress code) to facilitate less power consumption andcomfortable office environments.
In FY2020, the total CO2 emitted was 5,391 tons (a 1% reduction compared to FY2019) due to energy-saving measures implemented at ourbusiness sites.

Reducing CO2 emissions in logistics
In FY2020 CO2 emissions in logistics amounted to 5,886 tons , down 1,193 tons from FY2019.
Against the backdrop of lower shipments due to effects from the COVID-19 pandemic in FY2020, the overall volume of freight transportation
declined (down by 509,000 t-km/year). As part of our portfolio transformation, the transfer of our film business subsidiary to Toyobo Co., Ltd. in
October 2019 was also a major factor.
As an ongoing measure to reduce the environmental load, in FY2020 we also improved our truck loading rate and implemented a modal shift(utilizing Japan Railway transportation and shipping). For example, we shifted from trucks to ship and rail transportation. We also decreasedtransportation using small trucks, increased bundled transportation using large trucks, and took other measures to increase transportation
efficiency.
As a result of the steady implementation of these measures even during the COVID-19 pandemic, CO2 emissions have decreased. In the entire
Group’s logistics, CO2 emissions per unit of transportation was flat compared with FY2019. The standard basic unit per 1,000 t-km (tonsCO2/1,000 t-km) was 1.053 (against 1 in FY2011).
In FY2021 we will continue our efforts to lower emissions per unit by increasing vehicle size (expanding bulk transportation), improving thetruck loading rate, and promoting a modal shift.

Resources Recycling Initiatives
We promote resources recycling initiatives with a focus on reducing the amount of landfill waste.

Reduction of Landfill Waste
The Group’s targets (KPIs) for FY2030
By FY2030, improve the landfill waste volume per sales unit by 10% compared to FY2018
The Teijin Group is committed to continued efforts to reduce landfill waste by reusing waste and switching to recycling of materials, chemicals,
and thermal substances.
With a decline in operation rate due to the impact of COVID-19, our landfill waste volume in FY2020 decreased 18% compared with the previous
year, to 13.4 thousand tons , representing an 18% improvement per sales unit compared with FY2018.
Further, with regard to reduction of waste with no effective use for which the target was to reduce by 85% or more compared to the FY1998 level
by FY2020, the amount was 15.4 thousand tons for FY2020, decreasing by 19% year-on-year. The reduction rate compared to FY1998 was 67%
and the target could not be achieved.
In FY2018, Continental Structural Plastics (CSP) was included in the scope of aggregation so the amount of waste increased significantly. We aremoving forward with specific efforts to reduce landfill waste volume at CSP, which, among Group companies, generates a particularly large
volume of waste, including reducing the volume of plastic waste by improving the yield rate at each of CSP's factories.

Measures to Address the Marine Plastic Waste Problem
Marine plastic waste has become a serious problem as a result of its negative impacts on life and ecosystems through marine pollution and foodchains. This problem has become an increasingly urgent global concern. In September 2018, the Teijin Group issued a "Declaration for Solving
the Plastic Marine Waste Problem" to demonstrate its commitment to this problem. Regulatory trends surrounding marine plastic waste could
elevate the risk of a loss of existing business. However, the Teijin Group considers this as an opportunity to drive growth in the markets forrecycling and alternative products. Based on this belief, the Teijin Group is advancing initiatives to reduce its environmental impact and provide
environmental value solutions.

Helping to solve the marine plastic waste problem through the recycling of PET bottle
Teijin Frontier Co., Ltd. has been implementing a recycling project based on the concept of "local production for local consumption" in various
parts of Japan. In this project, Teijin Frontier collects waste generated at the venues of outdoor events and recycles this waste into resources. In
July 2018, Teijin Frontier collected PET bottles at a beach cleanup event at Katsuura Beach and recycled the PET bottles into original straps. In
September 2018, "Munakata Fes," an outdoor music festival, was held in the city of Fukutsu in Fukuoka Prefecture. At the event, Teijin Frontierhanded out the original straps made from recycled PET bottles to participants in the cleanup activities and volunteers at the venue of the music
festival. Teijin Frontier also collected PET bottles on the days of the "Munakata Fes" for recycling and recycled them into official merchandise forthe 2019 music festival.

Reducing Hazardous Substance Emissions
We are working to systematically reduce emissions of hazardous chemical substances associated with our businessactivities and committ to preventing environmental pollution.

Reducing Emissions of Hazardous Chemical Substances*1
So far, the Teijin Group has been engaged in the reduction of hazardous chemical substances with the goal of achieving its targets by FY2020. In
FY2019, the Group set new targets for FY2030 and launched initiatives for achieving them.

The Group’s targets (KPIs) for FY2030
By 2030, improve the hazardous chemical substances emissions per sales unit by 20% compared to FY2018
In addition to steadily responding to various regulations, we are striving to improve yield rate within processes that use hazardous chemical
substances. There were no violations of the various regulations at the Teijin Group in FY2020. We established measures to reduce and prevent
leaks of hazardous chemical substances in each business, including the carbon bers and resin and plastic processing businesses. As a result of
these measures, as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, our hazardous chemical substance emissions decreased 18% compared withthe previous year, to 660 tons , making for a 22% improvement per sales unit compared with FY2018.
By FY2020, with regard to emissions of chemical substances into the environment*2, for which the target was to reduce by 80% or more by
FY2020 compared to FY1998, the amount for FY2020 was 1.51 thousand tons , a 14% decrease from the previous year, with the reduction ratecompared to FY1998 at 81%, and the targets being achieved. The breakdown of emissions of chemical substances into the environment in
FY2020 was 98.5% for emissions into the atmosphere, and 1.5% for emissions into water, and there were no emissions for soil or landfills.

Management of Water Resources
In response to the increasingly critical water shortages and water pollution worldwide, the Teijin Group is endeavoring to
reduce water consumption at business sites bearing in mind water-related risks, while promoting the efficient use of water
resources.

Management of Water Resources
The Group’s targets (KPIs) for FY2030
By FY2030 improve the freshwater intake volume per sales unit by 30% compared with FY2018.
We are expanding the number of products that use less water during the production process and making efficient use of water in our businessactivities.
In FY2020, with a decline in operation rate due to the impact of COVID-19, the freshwater intake volume decreased 10% compared with theprevious year to 62.7 million tons , which constituted a 4% improvement per sales unit over FY2018.
In these ways, in the future too, we aim to achieve our targets for reducing the amount of freshwater intake with a focus on curtailing water use
at manufacturing sites and other locations that use high volumes of water, including the Mishima Factory in the Carbon Fibers Business andeach domestic and overseas Group company in the Fibers & Products Converting Business.
