*1
Energy consumption associated with fuel and electricity consumption is calculated using the conversion factors specified in the Japanese Act on Rationalization of Energy Use and Shift to Non-fossil Energy.
*2
The PRTR data and VOC emissions only cover domestic sites, including Group sites.
*3
CO2 emissions are calculated using the adjusted emission factors according to the method specified in the Guidelines for Calculating Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Businesses issued by the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) of Japan. The conversion factors used to calculate CO2 emissions associated with electricity consumption at overseas Group sites are prioritized in the following order: 1) the factors independently set by the electric utilities from which Group sites purchase electricity, 2) the factors published by central and local governments, and 3) the latest factors published by the International Energy Agency (IEA).
*4
Emissions into the atmosphere are calculated based on the standards established by the Japan Federation of Printing Industries (JFPI) and the VOC emission inventory issued by the MOE of Japan.
*5
The total discharge of waste includes industrial waste of no value and waste materials of value sold or transferred as resources (both generated in association with business activities).
*6
Includes 9,014 m³ of spring water from the premises of the Akihabara Sales Building.

Participating in the Green Purchasing NetworkBack to Top

The Green Purchasing Network (GPN) of Japan was established in 1996 as a loose-knit network of businesses, civilian organizations, government agencies, and other entities proactively engaged in green purchasing practices. GPN is convinced that green purchasing plays a critical role in the formulation of a market for eco-products on a scale sufficient to facilitate eco-product development. GPN believes that green purchasing will contribute significantly to the realization of a sustainable society.

As a GPN member, TOPPAN Holdings Inc. provides printing services based on the GPN Ordering Guidelines for Printing Services.

CFP and Carbon Offsetting InitiativesBack to Top

TOPPAN Inc. has been visualizing CO2 emissions associated with printed materials and events through CFP* and carbon offsetting initiatives. Its one-stop service for client companies covers every step from CFP quantification to carbon-offset certification. This procedure has also been applied to the company's own products and events. In fiscal 2023, TOPPAN Inc. gained certification for its “carbon footprint comprehensive calculation system” under the SuMPO Carbon Footprint Comprehensive Calculation Scheme, a third-party certification framework operated by the Sustainable Management Promotion Organization (SuMPO) of Japan. TOPPAN Inc.'s certified system calculates CO2 emissions associated with packaging, décor materials, and publication and commercial printed materials.
