CO2 Reduction Efforts
Makino strives to reduce CO2 throughout the company.
We have installed a wind power generation system on the company ground. The power thus generated is used in our offices during the day and for lights in the company parking lot at night.
We strive to reduce power consumption by using energy-saving
fluorescent lighting in our plants and thermal insulation coating on the roofs of company buildings.
The wind turbine is the symbol of Makino’s CO2 reduction efforts. -
Environmental Beautification
– Cleaning & Weeding –To contribute to maintaining a livable community, we strive to
beautify our surroundings by cleaning and weeding around the
company once a month as a part of our 5S activities.
We also work to beautify the environment in Tokoname by
participating in citywide cleaning activities twice a year.
When we see how clean the town has become, we feel
refreshed, and we know our labors have been worthwhile. -
Promotion of Traffic Safety
During Traffic Safety Weeks four times a year, Makino employees take
turns patrolling the roads around the company during rush hour, and
they also patrol on the 10th, 20th, and 30th of every month, which are
designated as Zero Traffic Accident Days.
We also conduct educational activities to prevent traffic accidents by
encouraging drivers to observe the traffic laws and making them more conscious of good traffic manners.
And of course, we ourselves always strive to drive safely.
