DEVELOPMENT OF ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY PRODUCTS
OMRON is earnestly coping with environmental conservation utilizing the four Rs: Reject,
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle, as keywords. (Reject the use of harmful substances, Reduce
impact on the environment, and Recycle and Reuse resources)
It is our responsibility as a member of the global community to always conserve the earth’s
limited resources.
In order to continue such environmental activities, many issues must be addressed. OMRON
will continue to develop and improve upon its technologies and products utilizing the four Rs
as its guide.
ECO-PRODUCTS CERTIFICATION SYSTEM
OMRON’s Eco-Products Certification System was introduced before the introduction of the
ISO 14021 Environmental Label Environmental Assertion by Self-Declaration, which is set to
become the global standard. OMRON’s Eco-Products Certification System is intended to pro-
mote the incorporation of environment-friendly features and functions into OMRON products
to enhance their appeal and public recognition. At the same time, this system will help promote
OMRON as a truly environmentally sound company to both its customers and the general public.
OMRON will create the standards for producing the Company’s unique eco-products and
certify those products that satisfy its in-house standards. In catalogs, pamphlets, and on the
products themselves, an eco-label designed by OMRON will be printed or affixed to identify
these eco-products.
