At the Canon Marketing Japan Group (hereafter, the "Canon MJ Group"), we are effectively operating our environmental management system.

Environmental Management System

At the Canon MJ Group, we have built the Canon Group's common environmental management system based on ISO 14001. The system serves as a mechanism for continuous improvement of our environmental protection activities.
Under this environmental management system, we set environmental targets for each year to advance activities for reducing our environmental impact, develop an action plan for achieving the targets, and reflect them in our business activities. Moreover, to confirm the status of these activities and the issues we face, we conduct internal environmental audits, thus working to continuously improve and strengthen our environmental protection activities.

Go to the page below for companies which have obtained ISO 14001 consolidated certification.
