To effectively use resources, the TOSHIBA TEC Group is tackling the reduction of the total amount of waste generated, including recycled waste. In fiscal 2009, the discharged waste amount in Japan decreased by 38% compared with fiscal 2008, and by 62% compared with fiscal 2000. Outside Japan, the amount of waste was also reduced by 15% on a year-on-year basis, and by 17% compared with fiscal 2004. Returnable containers for procured goods are adopted for delivery to reduce corrugated cardboards.
TOSHIBA America Business Solutions, Inc. launched the "Zero Waste to Landfill" recycling program together with Close the Loop ® in the autumn of 2008. Almost 100% of consumables and replacement parts collected through this program have been recycled, contributing to the global environment.
