The Air Water Group has adopted “Meeting society’s needs with nature’s blessings” as its Purpose. By utilizing the Earth’s resources, represented by air and water, and combining them with technologies and business models, we create products and services that are indispensable to people’s lives and industries. Based on sustainable business activities that do not deplete the natural resources that are the source of these resources, and with a view to“a sustainable future in which people and the Earth coexist,” we have established our Sustainable Vision for 2050,“Realizing a circular society through harmony with the Earth and society,” as the state we aim to achieve in 2050.
Leveraging our diverse business fields, the Group responds to social issues such as climate change, resource shortages, coexistence between people and nature, and the extension of healthy life expectancy in an accurate and flexible manner. Viewing the response to these issues as an opportunity for growth, we are advancing the transformation of our business portfolio while reviewing the structure and roles of our existing businesses.
In addition, collaboration beyond the boundaries of our own company is essential to solving social issues. Through collaboration with suppliers and partner companies, we are working on value creation and problem solving across the entire supply chain. Going forward, we will continue to accelerate the creation of new technologies and businesses through open innovation utilizing such facilities as Air Water no Mori (Sapporo Office), Air Water in KENTO (Osaka), and the International Advanced Medical Center @Kobe (Hyogo).
These efforts are supported by the power of our people. The Group is committed to developing human resources who will drive transformation through creating an environment in which each employee can fully demonstrate their abilities and through improving well-being. In addition, regarding our material issues, we are advancing the enhancement of progress management and information disclosure under our sustainability promotion framework.
The Air Water Group will continue to contribute to solving social issues through its businesses while remaining a company that continues to respond to change. We will also continue to strive to realize a future in which the sustainability of the Earth and society and the growth of the Company are in harmony.
