Situated on the western part of Shizuoka Prefecture, Kosai Plant is a center of research, development and administration of the FDK Group. In
the vicinity of the plant are beautiful Lake
Hamana and Enshunada Beach, famous for egglaying of sea turtles. The plant is surrounded bybeautiful nature. The environment-related activity of the plant includes setting up and proposalof the FDK Group Environmental Policy andAction Plan, designation of rules for the FDKGroup as a whole and promotion of actions. In
other words, Kosai Plant is the leading entity ofother plants to put various activities into practice.
1. The plant has been involved in developing
products free of hazardous substances inorder to comply with EU s RoHS Directive,
and other rules. More recently, it is committed to developing super-green products whichhave top-environmental characteristics.
2. The plant planned and disseminated measuresand action plans for reduction of carbon dioxide emission and wastes into the Group companies.

3. In order to comply with ISO14001 (2004 version),the plant hosted in-house seminars to update theinformation and explain points to note to theemployees. At the same time, the plant disseminates education and awareness regarding environmental protection and amendment of rules, laws
and regulations through its intranet.
The plant is determined
to integrate the efforts ofall employees for global
environmental protection
activities, aiming at realizing the sustainable
society.

Sanyo Plant is situated in Asa , north of
Sanyo Onoda City in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
Asa is famous at the old tale of Asa-noNetaro which is said to be an origin of theold tale of Sannen-Netaro that is foundevery corner of Japan. The plant is now inthe process of making a shift from a ferrite
mass production factory to an electronicparts mass production factory, using its skillof material development and application
technologies.
The environment-related activities of thisplant include:
1. Promotion of environmental measures to
products:(1) Compliance to EUs RoHS Directive(2) Facilitating control on products
containing chemical substances
2. Prevention of global warming: Reductionof CO 2 generation
3. Promotion of green factory:(1) Reduction of waste generation(2) Continuing zero emission.
33

As to the reduction of waste generation, theplant will strengthen the activity based on efficient use of resources and production using
minimum required volume of resources as thetwo major targets.
In the future, the plant will use the cycle of
PDCA and integrate the efforts of the entire
workers toward environmental protection
activities for people ,local community andthe Earth.

Manufacturing and sales of alkaline batteries and lithium batteries

Situated in Kosei City along the west bank of thebeautiful Lake Hamana, FDK Energy Co., Ltd. issurrounded with nature and is a center of technical development and manufacturing of alkali
batteries and lithium batteries.
The company was involved in mainly reducing
energy consumption and wastes as its environmental activities throughout FY2005 while inthe circumstances of increasing production
volume year by year. For the former, packaging
processes were integrated to one place under its
production innovation activities and energy
consumption was successfully reduced. Though
the increase of production came to 6% , theincrease of energy consumption was retained tojust 2%. For the latter, residual sludge was
successfully reduced thanks to an improved
performance of biological treatment facility.
Decreased in-process defect ratio contributed toreduced waste batteries. In FY2005, the volume
of waste was reduced by 32 ton over the target.
As to its efforts for eco-friendly products, aninspection and confirmation was made to eachsupplier of raw materials in order to respond to therequirements of FDK Group s criteria for controlling
products containing chemical substances.
In FY2006, Digital Alkali Battery D-Series will be
released in addition to the conventional Wide Range
Alkali Battery G-Series. The D-Series batteries aredeveloped for digital equipment use and the power islarger by 40% than theconventional G-Series
batteries. This has
enabled increased
replacement cycle ofbatteries and resourcesaving can be promoted
further.

activities to reduce loads that impact on theenvironment.
The activities include elimination of hazardous
chemical substances, waste water treatment,
energy-saving (mainly electricity consumption),
reduction and separation of wastes, monitoringand measurement of waste gasses released to air
and tree planting activities. As to the reductionof power consumption and waste, reduction
targets are set in it environmental management
plan which is promoted under a regular monitoring. In FY20 05, the increased production oflithium batteries caused an increase of CO 2
emission. Wastes are collected by a consigned
waste processing company for uplifting the recycling ratio. On the other hand, effluents aretreated by a waste treatment facility installed in

the company and monitored and measured every
month. The result of the measurements is reported
to other companies in the same industrial complex as

were commu nicated to a ll employees by
displaying it on the company bulletin board
and other means. At the same time, each
employee was encouraged to set and implement his/her own themes. As a result, theenergy consumption reduction target was
successfully achieved. Due to a shift of ferrite
production to Nangjing FDK in October 2004,
CO 2 emission volume from the company wassignificantly reduced.
3. As a part of its green planting activities, maintenance and growing of trees were done regularly inthe plant premises.
4. Recycled use of packaging materials was promoted
which was successful in reducing the volume ofwastes.
