Aiming for Zero Use of Natural Resources

In Eco Vision 2050, the long-term environmental vision toward 2050, Konica Minolta set the target of reducing the use of natural resources* by at least 90% for its products and expanding its contribution to reducing the use of natural resources other than its own products with the aim of achieving zero use of natural resources in “using limited resources effectively.” As specific measures, regarding resources used for providing its products and services, Konica Minolta aims to achieve transformation into a business model that does not depend on natural resources that fall under depletable resources and to improve its corporate value by synchronizing non-financial value with financial value based on initiatives through business activities.

*Natural resources: Resources that require new drilling or mining, such as crude oil or mineral resources, and are generally synonymous with depletable resources.

Konica Minolta remains committed to promoting environmental management and ensuring proper information disclosure to stakeholders.
