Initiatives to Reduce Waste
Toray Group is making effective use of resources as it works toward the realization of a sustainable, recycling-based world. Under its CSR Roadmap 2025, which covers fiscal 2023-2025, the Group has set a specific waste recycling rate1 as a KPI and is actively working toward achieving it. In particular, intensive efforts are being made to reduce the number of group companies and plants with low recycling rates and to follow up on progress being made.

The Toray Group recycling rate in fiscal 2023 was 87.0%, up by 0.2 percentage points year on year, thanks to efforts to promote stable operation of sludge drying equipment at relevant group companies. As a result, the Group achieved its target of 86% or higher.
Going forward, Toray will continue efforts to achieve the waste recycling rate KPI set in the CSR Roadmap 2025. It has designated companies with low recycling rates as target companies and is promoting waste reduction and reuse (including conversion to valuable resources), as it strives for further reductions.
