ISO

Achieving world-class status in environmental preservation and quality control: Both the Shiga and Saitama factories have obtained ISO 14001 certification. The Shiga, Saitama, Oji factories are ISO 9001 certified.

Our Shiga factory obtained International Organization for Standardization’s (ISO) 9001 and 14001 certifications, as well as Interior Safety Materials’ (ISM) certification almost concurrently. This is a rare accomplishment even among major companies, and has attracted huge attention from related industries.
ISO is an international organization that creates standards to ensure that the international distribution of goods and services is smooth and efficient. The Shiga factory is ISO 9001 certified for quality control and ISO 14001 certified for its environmental management system, and Nic Freight Co., Ltd. and Dynic Factory Service Co., Ltd., both of which are located within the Shiga factory’s premises, also obtained these certifications at the same time. ISM is quality and safety standards for wallpaper products as formulated by the Wallcoverings Association.

The Shiga factory has been making efforts to address the following issues with the aim of creating a factory that is friendly to the global environment and the local community:

  • A strong focus on environmental protection throughout the entire process, ranging from the development to the disposal of products.
  • Maximum effective utilization of industrial water for factory use and the purification of industrial waste water.
  • Implementing resources and energy conservation activities with the participation of all employees (Awarded a prize by the Director of the Regional Bureau of International Trade and Industry in 1994).
  • Promoting the creation of a green factory that can coexist in harmony with nature (Awarded a prize by the Director of the Regional Bureau of International Trade and Industry in 1998).

Following the Shiga factory, our Saitama factory also obtained ISO 14001 certification in December 1998. The Saitama factory is actively engaged in activities to improve the environment and prevent pollution.
