Environmental brand

Suzuki has introduced the environmental brand SUZUKI GREEN, with the aim of realizing the Suzuki Global Environment Charter, which sets forth Suzuki’s philosophy and basic policy toward the environment. SUZUKI GREEN clearly defines Suzuki’s environmental policy, next-generation eco-friendly technologies and efforts such as environmental activities, and it is promoted widely both internally and externally. SUZUKI GREEN has three categories: SUZUKI GREEN Policy, which represents Suzuki’s environmental policy; SUZUKI GREEN Technology, which represents its next-generation eco-friendly technologies; and SUZUKI GREEN Activity, which represents its environmental activities.

SUZUKI GREEN Policy represents Suzuki’s environmental doctrine and policy

SUZUKI GREEN Technology represents next-generation eco-friendly technologies developed and utilized by Suzuki

SUZUKI GREEN Activity represents Suzuki’s effort and activity on realizing the environmental policy

Suzuki Global Environment Charter

Suzuki Global Environment Charter (Established in 2002 and revised in 2006)

[Environmental Concept]

In order to hand over our beautiful earth and affluent society to the next generations, we must all realize that the actions of each and every one of us have a great effect on our earth’s future, so we must make every effort to preserve our environment.

[Basic Environmental Policies]

Strictly observe environmental laws and also follow our own standards.
Actively reduce the environmental impact resulting from our business activities and products.
Maintain and continually improve upon our environmental management system.
Actively promote environmental communication.

Suzuki Group environmental organization

Suzuki has established the Committee for Carbon Neutrality and the Environmental Committee directly under the Board of Directors for the purpose of environmental management for the entire Group.
The Board of Directors instructs and supervises the Committee for Carbon Neutrality and the Environmental Committee, and makes final decisions based on the reports from both committees.
The Committee for Carbon Neutrality focuses on the theme of climate change (carbon neutrality) and holds intensive discussions on decarbonization once a month to ensure reporting that conforms to reality.
The Environmental Committee meets twice a year to discuss environmental issues other than carbon neutrality, such as air conservation, water resources, and resource circulation.
The themes of the two committees are clearly separated to enhance the effectiveness of meetings and further accelerate decision-making related to decarbonization.

Suzuki Environmental Vision 2050 —Smaller, Fewer, Lighter, Shorter, Beauty—

“Smaller, Fewer, Lighter, Shorter, Beauty”: these are the words which Suzuki has held since the early 1990s to express the basis of its manufacturing. We believe that this concept also applies to the initiatives toward tackling global environmental issues including climate change, water shortages, and resource depletion.
On the occasion of the Company’s 100th anniversary in 2020, we have set the Suzuki Environmental Vision 2050 as a compass toward 2050, in order to “contribute to society and become a company loved and trusted throughout the world” for the next 100 years.
Based on the “Smaller, Fewer, Lighter, Shorter, Beauty” concept, Suzuki will aim to realize our ideal future. That is, to make the environmental impact from our business activities smaller and fewer, make the environmental load lighter, shorten the time it takes to tackle various environmental issues, and keep the earth bountiful and beautiful.

Overall image of Suzuki’s environmental strategy

Suzuki has formulated a Suzuki Environmental Plan every five years to promote environmental initiatives and ensure continuous improvement through the plan-do-check-action (PDCA) cycle.
Toward achieving the Suzuki Environmental Vision 2050 and Milestone 2030, we will continue to promote our initiatives by setting short-term targets through backcasting.

Introduction of environmental management system

Suzuki is promoting the introduction of ISO 14001 as part of environmental conservation efforts. The ISO 14001 is an international standard for environmental management systems. By obtaining ISO 14001 certification, Suzuki intends to comply with environmental laws and regulations and reduce environmental impact.
Suzuki has already completed acquiring ISO 14001 certifications at sites accounting for 94%* of all Suzuki Motor Corporation and Suzuki Group plants of domestic and overseas manufacturing subsidiaries combined (sites that account for over 99% of its CO₂ emissions from global production).

* Of the 33 plants of 20 companies, 31 plants of 18 companies have acquired certification.

Suzuki has been introducing ISO 14001 in divisions other than manufacturing, and in January 2023, it acquired ISO 14001 certification for the office and development area at the head office. In addition, it will gradually introduce ISO 14001 at offices and development facilities in Japan.

Efforts of manufacturing divisions

Status of efforts at plants in Japan and domestic and overseas manufacturing subsidiaries

In April 1998, Magyar Suzuki became the first in the Suzuki Group to acquire ISO 14001 certification.
By March 2003, all domestic plants of Suzuki had acquired ISO 14001 certification.
Among domestic manufacturing subsidiaries, all nine plants of four companies have acquired ISO 14001 certification. Overseas, 17 plants of 13 manufacturing subsidiaries have acquired ISO 14001 certification, as well as 2 plants of 2 affiliates.

Manufacturing: Environment Organizer Meeting

Suzuki holds the Environment Organizer Meeting in order to improve the environmental management of domestic plants and manufacturing subsidiaries. At this meeting, engineering managers and members of domestic plants and manufacturing subsidiaries (nine plants of four companies) get together to discuss matters related to domestic plants and manufacturing subsidiaries. Decisions made and matters discussed at the meetings are rolled out to domestic plants and manufacturing subsidiaries, contributing to environmental management activities.

Environmental audit

At Suzuki’s domestic plants and manufacturing subsidiaries, an external audit in addition to internal audit is conducted once every year by an external auditing agent to doublecheck our environmental management system.

Efforts of non-manufacturing divisions

Status of introduction at offices and development facilities

In order to promote environmental conservation efforts as the Suzuki Group, in January 2023, we acquired ISO 14001 certification for our head office, including offices and development areas.

Efforts of domestic sales distributors

In order to roll out environmentally friendly initiatives to Group companies, we introduced the Suzuki Environmental Management System from April 2017 to affiliate automobiles sales distributors in Japan. This environmental management system unique to Suzuki is part of our initiative in reducing environmental load (energy consumption and waste volume) and complying with environmental laws and regulations through the PDCA cycle. Sales distributors at which the system was introduced are actively promoting it under the leadership of appointed environmental managers and secretariats.

Environmental education/awareness

Employee education

As part of our employee education program, we integrate basic environmental education on Suzuki’s Environmental Concept and policies, environmental issues, and promotion of eco-driving into new employee education. We also provide environmental education according to respective operations and positions. Each of our domestic plants works to prevent environmental accidents by providing various types of education on their own, mainly for employees in charge of environmentally important processes, as well as introductory education for new employees and education for managementlevel employees and all employees.

Education to obtain qualifications

We also encourage employees to obtain qualifications.
Employees with leading environmental qualifications include 131 Pollution Control Managers, 38 Qualified Persons for Energy Management, and 402 internal environment system auditors.

Training for those in charge of procurement

In order to raise environmental awareness and perform procurement operations appropriately, we conduct training for new employees in the procurement department and employees transferred from other departments. We promote procurement activities that comply with environmental laws and regulations and make sustainable development possible.

Emergency training

At domestic plants and domestic and overseas manufacturing subsidiaries, we anticipate locations and operations that are at risk of causing environmental accidents^* and hold emergency drills conducted by employees and other related suppliers.

* Environmental accidents refer to accidents that affect the environment such as leakage of chemical substances.

Situation concerning environmental laws and regulations

In FY2022, there were 11 cases of significant spills^* and 6 cases of complaints concerning the environment, all of which were properly taken care of. There was no administrative guidance or payment of penalty due to these significant spills.

* Significant spills: Spills that are recorded as spills from an organization, such as wastewater, emission gas, odors, chemical substances (including oil), and wastes that exceed law and regulation limits, as well as soil and groundwater contamination.

Communication with business partners

Communication and briefing sessions with business partners

In managing substances of concern for automobiles consisting of many parts, it is important to communicate information on chemical substances in products and regulated substances throughout the supply chain.
Suzuki regularly holds online briefings for its business partners on how to enter information on chemical substances into IMDS (International Material Data System), a tool for communicating such information, and on global trends for substance regulations.
The accurate entry of data into IMDS is necessary to check for the presence of regulated substances. In addition, when flame retardants and plasticizers contained in parts are regulated, it is important to communicate information on regulations before they take effect because it takes time to conduct development tests to substitute alternative substances .
Please refer to Chemical Substances for details on IMDS.

Request for cooperation in continuously reducing risk

To continuously undertake transactions with business partners and deepen mutual understanding with them in implementing green procurement, Suzuki requires both new and existing business partners to submit the SOC Control System Self-Check Sheet (a survey form on the status of establishing a management system for substances of concern).
We also ask new business partners to make improvements if we find any issues based on their responses on the check sheet for selecting partners. We ask existing business partners to implement a yearly self-check and submit the results when requested by Suzuki. For business partners we deem to be not meeting the standards based on their responses, as well as those who could be in violation of the Suzuki Green Procurement Policy, Suzuki performs audits on the status of establishing management systems for substances of concern. If any items are cited, Suzuki requests that they take corrective or preventative measures to reduce the risk.

Note: Audits of business partners are systematically implemented regardless of whether there are any problems.

Measures against violation of laws and regulations

If a violation of laws and regulations occurs in the business activities of our business partners that is expected to affect Suzuki or society, we request an immediate report to Suzuki, an investigation into the cause, and a report on the investigation results. In addition, we also request they submit measures to prevent recurrence.

Community information exchange meeting

We carry out an information exchange meeting with local residents to ask their views and opinions to reduce environmental impact. Although meetings have been postponed for the past few years to prevent the spread of COVID-19, some have been resumed from FY2022, depending on the situation.

Information disclosure

In order to spread awareness and understanding of our environmental initiatives among our stakeholders, we disclose our environmental technologies online, in booklets and other media, and through participation in environment-related exhibitions and events.

Participation in outside associations, etc.

Cooperation with various economic and industry associations

Suzuki is a member of associations such as the Japan Business Federation and the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association and cooperates with each organization to tackle problems and achieve a sustainable society.
Suzuki dispatches committee members to various committees, subcommittees, and working groups at the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association for comprehensive activities. In particular, the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association commits to reducing CO₂ emissions by improving fuel efficiency, developing next-generation vehicles, improving traffic flow, and promoting eco-driving. Suzuki, recognizing climate change as a critical issue, shares the same view with the Association and is working closely with them.

Support for the TCFD^*

As a supporter of the TCFD^*, Suzuki has endorsed and signed the TCFD recommendations and is promoting information disclosure that is easy for stakeholders to understand. In order to further strengthen our resilience to climate change, we are working to enhance the sophistication of our scenario analysis and information to be disclosed.

* TCFD: Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures

Participation in the GX League^*

In April 2023, Suzuki joined the GX League promoted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
The GX League is a forum for companies aiming to achieve sustainable growth in the present and future society by taking on the challenge of GX (Green Transformation) with a view to achieving carbon neutrality and social transformation by 2050, to collaborate with other companies making similar efforts and with government and academia.
Through participation in this league, we will accelerate our efforts to realize a carbon-neutral society through collaboration with industry, government, and academia.
