At the heart of Fujitsu environmental philosophy is ‘Green Policy – We make every activity green’. Current activities include:
- creating ‘super green’ products
- developing eco-efficient solutions
- abolishing hazardous substances in all Fujitsu-brand products
- rolling out the recycling programme throughout the world
- reinforcement of environmental management based on EMS
- improving environmental efficiency throughout product lifecycles
Practical steps
In Europe, FME makes substantial contributions through specific projects. Amongst the Green successes are collection and re-use of flat display panel packaging and empty trays; using multi-use containers that make outer boxes & filling materials obsolete; and new techniques for producing ultra-thin wafers without using chemicals. These, plus the introduction of lead-free solder material and new solder processes, together with organised collection and recycling of products, all help to reduce negative environmental impact. Initiative like these are planned, controlled and assessed within Fujitsu's global ISO14001 evironmental management system, which gained certification for all European and worldwide facilities in May 2006.
Furthermore, FME is fully compliant with the time plan for implementation of Fujitsu’s RoHS1 and WEEE2 programs.
Throughout the world, Fujitsu takes its Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR) seriously. And in Europe, FME has taken on an active role in forging links with local communities in order that this CSR programme is implemented at a local level.
