Environmental Communication

Communication in factories

In order to fulfill our responsibility to explain environmental risks to people living in the vicinity of our factories, each AISIN factory invites representatives of neighborhood associations to an annual meeting at which business activities and the results of environmental measurements are explained to them.

These meetings also provide the opportunity for local people to inspect our environmental response facilities and to gain a better understanding of how AISIN is dealing with environmental questions.

We try as far as possible to reflect any opinions and wishes expressed on these occasions in our business activities and environmental conservation activities.

Activities contributing to society

At AISIN we're doing everything we can to cooperate with local residents and NPOs on greening and forest conservation projects. We hope that our efforts along these lines will deepen the relationship of trust that we enjoy with our stakeholders.

Working together with local communities to protect forest as a water source

The 34th “All AISIN Policy Systems Forum”* was held at the Anjo City Cultural Center in Aichi Prefecture in November 2007.

Lectures and a symposium took place on global warming, which has become the main environmental issue affecting us today. Participants were able to study how companies, administrative authorities and ordinary citizens can assist from their different perspectives in combating global warming.

*This forum has been held twice a year in spring and autumn since 1991 with the purpose of encouraging local government and companies to confront topics of major social and regional interest. These forums have been open to participation by the general public since the autumn forum of 1995.

Tree-planting activities implemented together with Thai children.

Much of the forest in the northern region of Thailand has been destroyed, and in response to this situation, employees of Aisin Seiki and our local Thai affiliate in the Aisin Group have been cooperating with Thai children on the five-year forestation program “Aisin Children's Forest” Project that got under way in fiscal 2005.

Approximately 12,000 seedlings were planted over nine hectares in fiscal 2008. We plan to plant a total of 60,000 seedlings over 45 hectares by the end of fiscal 2009.
