In the plastic film business, we are working on the use of non-petroleum-derived raw materials through mass balance methods and developing films
suitable for recycling into mono-materials. In the cellulose business, we aredeveloping NatureFlex™, a plant-derived, compostable product. In theactivated carbon business, we are developing an efficient storage systemfor biomethane and a hydrogen concentrator for the effective use of hydrogen. In each of our businesses, we focus on the production and developmentof products that can contribute to the SDGs.
We ask for your support as we continue our efforts to provide a stable supplyof materials as infrastructure to support a healthy and comfortable life foreveryone, and actively promote our efforts to achieve the SDGs.

Company ProﬁleAgricultural BusinessWe produce starch products fromnatural starch using Futamura
Chemical’s proprietary technology. By
imparting unique physical properties tothe product, we can use it in fields
where its application was previously
difficult.

Recently, there has been growing social awareness of the environment andsustainability, as exemplified by the SDGs. We are continuously working
towards achieving the SDGs by building solar power plants, producing
recycled fuel from the plastic refuses generated by our business partners,
reusing distribution materials, and reducing carbon dioxide emissions byreviewing our transportation methods.

We process activated carbon, manufactured from wood or coconut shells, into
various shapes to suit the application. It is
widely used in processes that aim to
decolorize and deodorize, such as
decolorization and refinement in the foodand medical industries, and water
treatment in water purification plants.

Our Social Report

3. Human Growth = Corporate Growth
The growth of people and the growth of a company are like twowheels of a cart – maintaining balance between the two isnecessary. In order for people to grow, there must be a place andvessel that encourages their growth. The company is the vessel,
and it is through the growth of the company that the growth ofpeople can be achieved.
All employees must strive to grow in their own work, under the
principle that those who brighten a corner are national treasures.
We should keep in mind that we either grow or we fail.

・ We recognize that helping each other is the
beginning of harmony and that harmony
among people is the basis for the developmentof the company.

Bringing peace of mind to lives and the environment around the world

2. Corporate Mission
One of our important corporate missions is to create permanent
stability and prosperity in the lives of our employees. This isfinanced by profits generated by the company. For this purpose,the company itself must be stable. In order to stabilize a company
permanently, it is necessary to develop and expand it. Maintaining
the status quo will lead to decline. Ensuring ongoing stability andprosperity of a company requires growth through its development
and expansion (including the enrichment of its contents).

Earth-friendly material
The cellulose products are primarily
made from wood pulp. At end of life,
microorganisms digest the cellulose,
producing water, carbon dioxide andbiomass. This makes it a natural,

Futamura Chemical's Ogaki method is the world's
first technology to achieve commercial scale
production of wood pulp based non-woven fabrics
without generating toxic chemical waste. With a
new production line launched in FY2021, theOgaki method's non-woven fabrics, named after
the plant in which the sustainable manufacturing
approach was conceived, are not only increasing
their share in the market, where over 90% of
products are made from petroleum-based plastic,
but are also helping to accelerate plastic-free

Ionic liquid(cellulose)

In January 2021, we started issuing privately-placed bonds witha guarantee by the Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank. These bonds are offered
as the bank's program that is designed to give back to the local
community. Through this program, part of the processing fee isused to purchase items for donation to local schools and organizations of our choice.

We obtained the Tradable Green Certificates (TGCs). As part of its
strategy to promote "locally sourced, locally consumed" energy, Ogaki
City buys the portion of renewable energy generated by the solar powersystems installed at local households based on the amount used athome. The purchased renewable energy is traded as TGCs that
represent the environmental values of renewable energy generated(known as Green Power) and is sold to companies in the city. Futamura
Chemical has been a consumer of TGCs since 2016. Currently, Ogaki
City's TGCs are sold to five other companies in addition to us.

Our Environmental Report

We obtained a B ranking (second rank out of three) in the DBJ's
environmental rating program.
The DBJ's environmental rating program assesses companies
using criteria such as the environmental management system,
delivery of sustainable products or services, measures for
effective use of resources, and initiatives to address key
environmental issues. Futamura Chemical's rating was awardedin accordance with our corporate mission, policies and guidelines
for quality, safety and environmental management, as well as
initiatives at our plants based on the ISO14001 standards.

Manufacturing
The plant-derived material can be processed
into a wide range of products

Non-woven fabricCasing[e.g.] Salt (sodium chloride) melts around 800℃. Ionic liquid stays
in its state, even at room temperature (see picture).
With the "Ogaki" method, ionic liquids are used for their energy-saving benefits
and lower environmental impact. Futamura Chemical is seeking to lead theworld by pioneering the commercial application of this next-generation
manufacturing process that is designed to help realize a sustainable future.

The Fsmash®, our specially processed starch product,developed at the Tahara development center, received
recognition from the Aichi Police Department for its use inforensic investigation and its benefits to police operations.
