Reducing the environmental impact of products

Trial usage of eco-product certification system

AISIN has established an in-house certification system for environmentally friendly eco-products. According to this system, the degree of contribution to prevention of global warming and conservation of resources is quantified along with factors such as function and performance. Products whose score shows an improvement over conventional products by a certain extent are certified as "AISIN eco-products."

In FY2011, two products in the lifestyle and energy related segment were certified as eco-products. The Group is expanding the system in stages, aiming to cover all products including automobile-related parts by FY2016.
