Collaboration with Society and Environmental Communication (Eco-Friendly)

DENSO engages in collaborations that transcend business domains and proactively discloses environment-related information to all stakeholders. In addition, the Company takes the initiative to actively pursue external collaborations that transcend the automotive industry when such collaborations are necessary to further enhance the effects of its environmental activities. Also, to ensure that its stakeholders can understand and relate to its initiatives, DENSO discloses environment-related information in a proactive and timely manner.

DENSO discloses environment-related information via its corporate website. In 2019, we pledged our support for the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Since doing so, we have been carrying out a scenario analysis regarding the impact of climate change on our businesses and the opportunities and risks related to this impact. We have also been making efforts to reflect the results of this analysis in our business strategies and are disclosing the details of these efforts in accordance with TCFD recommendations.

DENSO has actively participated in both the Climate Change and Water Security categories of a survey conducted by the CDP* and was included in the CDP’s “A List,” which is the highest rating available, for three consecutive years from fiscal 2023 to fiscal 2025.
Moving forward, we will continue to pursue improvements to our environmental information disclosure methods and the content itself.

* CDP: This international non-governmental organization works with institutional investors to disclose global companies’ strategies on the issue of climate change and their greenhouse gas emissions.

The DENSO Group participates in exhibitions, which it considers to be an opportunity for promoting a greater understanding of its environmental initiatives and engaging in exchanges with a variety of people. These include exhibits of environment-friendly products and technologies as well as interactive events. We also introduce advanced environmental technologies at motor shows and other events held around the world.

DENSO is a charter member of the Environmental Partnership Organizing Club (EPOC), a private organization of 280 major companies from the Chubu region established in 2000.

Since 2020, as the lead company of the Resource Circulation Subcommittee, we have been sharing the latest information on resource circulation, including information on recent social trends and advanced case studies, with the aim of advancing the shift toward a circular economy and a material-cycle society.

DENSO CORPORATION has endorsed the Keidanren Initiative for Biodiversity Conservation.
The Company has formulated DENSO Eco Vision 2025 as an action plan for realizing a sustainable society, setting targets to be achieved and specific actions to be taken. To encourage harmonious coexistence between people and nature, DENSO is promoting initiatives to protect local ecosystems and rare species within the Company’s business sites, as well as the “DENSO Green Project,” a greening activity committed to using local saplings and employing natural planting techniques, in cooperation with employees and their families, NPOs, and local communities.

The Keidanren Initiative for Biodiversity Conservation is a group of various companies and organizations that endorse the objectives of the Keidanren Declaration on Biodiversity and Action Guidelines (revised version) for the realization of a sustainable society. Details of policies and specific examples of future initiatives are available on the Keidanren website, which was launched in September 2021.
