We are headquartered in Esslingen, Germany, with sales offices in the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Russia, China and a large presence in Scandinavia. The KYOCERA Europe Group sell ceramic components for various industrial applications, ceramic kitchenware, printing devices for industrial printing solutions as well as industrial cutting tools and fastening solutions for the building industry. A significant portion of the products sold by the KYOCERA Europe Group are supplied by KCJ. The cutting tool products are either manufactured within KYOCERA Group (Japan, Denmark, Lithuania, United Kingdom, USA) or by suppliers in Europe or Asia. Kyocera philosophy and policies KYOCERA Europe Group manages its business according to the KYOCERA Philosophy relating to life and management. Its central principle is to "Do what is right as a human being," a concept that is applied in all our decision making processes. By showing the importance of fairness and diligent effort, it serves as a paradigm for our conduct. The entire KYOCERA Group is operated in accordance with the 10 principles of the UN Global Compact on Human Rights, which KCJ joined in 2011.

KYOCERA Group has a zero tolerance policy on trafficked, bonded, child, forced or compulsory labour or servitude. Activities related to prevention of slavery and human trafficking The greatest risk of slavery and human trafficking lies in the raw material stage, where the KYOCERA Group relies on third party suppliers of the materials and components contained in our products. In response to this risk, the KYOCERA Group companies distribute the "Supply-Chain CSR Deployment Guideline" to first-tier suppliers, and have requested them to comply with our guidelines and values.
