Achieving our corporate philosophy through "Sustainable management"

Under the Corporate Philosophy of the Fujitsu General Group, the "FUJITSU GENERAL Way," we have defined "–Living together for our future–" as Our Mission, which we aim to achieve for our customers and society. This embodies the same aim as the philosophy behind "Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)," "Leave No One Behind." This serves as a guidepost for every employee of the Fujitsu General Group aimed at contributing to the creation of a comfortable, secure, and safe society through the provision of new value.

To achieve our Corporate Philosophy, we have also set "Sustainable Management" as the basis of all our business activities. Under "Sustainable Management," we aim to contribute to the creation of a sustainable society through medium- and long-term business growth and development based on the following three pillars: Harmonious Coexistence with Our Planet (Planet), Social Contribution (Society), and Care for Employees (Our People).

The business activities of the Fujitsu General Group contribute to the creation of a sustainable society. Air Conditioners from our mainstay business are used around the world as clean products that offer excellent energy efficiency, comfort, and safety. These products, which utilize heat pump technology, are anticipated to contribute to limiting climate change as alternative products for appliances that burn fossil fuels for heating and hot water.

The Fujitsu General Group aims to contribute to the creation of a sustainable society by providing products that solve social issues, including air conditioners, for which there is a growing global need as essential items for day-to-day life, and Air to Water (ATW) systems (heat pump-type hot water heating systems), which do not emit any greenhouse gases (GHGs) when operating.

In the Information & Communication System Business, we provide disaster prevention and firefighting systems that support security and safety and that have become increasingly necessary as climate change has led to an increase in natural disasters. In the Electronic Devices Business, we provide high-efficiency power modules that contribute to cutting greenhouse gas emissions by enhancing the energy efficiency of industrial devices, etc. Through these business activities, the Fujitsu General Group will contribute to solving social issues while strengthening our business foundations.

In this way, by certifying strategic products and services that are expected to solve social issues and contribute to a sustainable society as Sustainable Products and actively investing in new product development and market development, we aim to expand sales to more than 30% of consolidated sales by FY2030.

As an initiative of our "Harmonious Coexistence with Our Planet (Planet)," we achieved the conversion to 100% renewable energy for electricity in our business activities in April 2022, earlier than originally planned. In the future, we will convert energy other than the electricity we use to renewable energy sources, further improve the energy-saving performance of the products we sell, enhance the power-saving effects with the use of digital technology, and improve the efficiency of product transportation. Through these efforts, our entire value chain aims to reduce GHG emissions by 55% by FY2035 (compared to FY2021) and to "achieve carbon neutrality" with net-zero GHG emissions by FY2050.

For "Social Contribution (Society)," we will provide a comfortable, safe, and secure society and space by strengthening our Air Conditioner, Information & Communication Systems, and Electronic Devices Businesses. We also aim to provide new value to solve social issues through internal measures such as new business creation programs. In parallel with these activities, we will strengthen our systems for responsible procurement activities and promote regional networking activities as we further focus on social contribution as a member of society.

For "Care for Employees (Our People)," we will continue promoting health and productivity management to create workplaces that help employees maintain health and vitality while boosting their productivity and motivation. At the same time, we will strengthen our initiatives to support "spontaneous career development and learning" based on the fact that it is essential for sustainable growth that each and every employee thinks proactively about their career and engages in self-growth.

By continuing these endeavors, we will further solidify our business foundation and the trust placed in us by our customers and society, and always pursue self-innovation as we target sustainable growth for the Fujitsu General Group.
