Materiality 1 Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation
The Teijin Group contributes to climate change mitigation and adaptation by providing products and services aimed atreducing CO2 emissions and realizing a carbon-free society.
Climate change has a large impact on the international communityand economy and increases the risks of natural disasters. For theTeijin Group as well, which aims to be a company that supports thesociety of the future, climate change is a big problem relating to thesustainability of our business bases. It is for this reason that we haveidentified “climate change mitigation and adaptation” as amateriality.
By contributing through our business, we will greatly reducegreenhouse-gas emissions by means of energy saving and realize aswitch to alternative clean energy as a step toward a carbon-freesociety. Efforts in procurement, production, transportation, and otherfields are essential as well. While contributing to “Lightweight andenergy efficient mobility” and “Clean energy shift” through ourproducts and technologies, the Teijin Group will continue our own
efforts for reducing greenhouse gases emissions,too. Furthermore,
we will contribute to reduce and promptly restore damage fromnatural disasters.

Environmental Value Solutions: Climate Change Mitigation by Providing
Lightweight Materials and Other Solutions
We are currently facing unprecedented extreme climate change. Measures to reduce
emissions of and absorb greenhouse gases, a cause of climate change, are essential as
mitigation measures. The Teijin Group is working to mitigate climate change by providing
high-performance materials and components to realize lightweight and electric mobility as ameans of contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions and providing products that areessential to hydrogen-based social infrastructure with the aim of decarbonizing society.

Safety, Security and Disaster Mitigation Solutions (Adaptation toClimate Change)

Climate change is causing a higher frequency of natural disasters caused by extreme rainfall,flooding, heat waves, and so on. The Teijin Group provides rainwater storage blocks as well asproducts and services that use high-durability materials and the Internet of Things (IoT) toreduce and promptly restore from the damage by natural disasters, contributing to adaptation
to climate change.

Teijin developed and provides rain water
storage tanks with outstanding long-term
durability and creep strength.

Reducing Greenhouse Gases Released in Conjunction with Business
Activities
The Teijin Group aims to make avoided CO2 emissions greater than total CO2 emissions in the entire group and the upstream supply chain at an
early stage and by FY2030 at the latest.
To reduce CO2 emitted in conjunction with business activities, in July 2021, we newly set Scope 3 reduction targets while raising Scope 1 and 2
reduction targets in order to accelerate initiatives for the realization of net zero emissions. We will promote decoupling of business growth andgreenhouse gas emissions, reduce our Group’s CO2 emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 30% compared to the FY2018 level by FY2030, and realize
virtually zero emissions by FY2050. In addition, by FY2030 we will reduce supply chain CO2 emissions (Scope 3) by 15% compared to the FY2018
level.
