Waste Management
In accordance with its environmental, health, and safety (EHS) policy objectives, Juoku has integrated “reducing material consumption and waste” into its daily operations. We have obtained ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certification. Through the standardized PDCA management cycle, we implement management starting at the source and extending to proper disposal at the end of the production process, thereby establishing a comprehensive circular system.
- Optimizing Resource Value: Juoku evaluates and reduces the use of hazardous substances during the R&D phase and is committed to optimizing resource efficiency. In the injection molding process, the company converts plastic waste into raw material for replacing and cleaning injection barrels, effectively reducing raw material waste.
- Implementing a Sustainable Supply Chain: For the remaining waste, we rigorously implement sorting and management protocols and select qualified disposal and treatment providers to ensure that residual resources enter the recycling system. We also extend the concept of sustainability to supply chain management to collectively reduce our environmental impact.
Juoku is committed to achieving its waste reduction goals and implements various waste reduction and resource recycling measures through its Energy Conservation Task Force. In fiscal year 2025, the total volume of waste collected and transported decreased by 7.48% compared to the previous year, and the resource recovery rate reached 61.05%. The company is dedicated to reducing its environmental impact to protect our green planet.
