Initiatives for Conservation of Biodiversity Back Number (2016)

Back to Latest Initiatives for Conservation of Biodiversity
Basic Approach
In FY2012, the Minebea Group revised its Environmental Policy and added "contribution to the international community" as a new initiative. As part of the initiative, we recognize that our business activities may have an effect on biodiversity and ecosystems, and we will work to conserve nature. As a first step, recognizing the importance of understanding the impact of our business activities, we are conducting research on how the Minebea Group's business relates.
Participation in Wildlife Sanctuary Reforestation Project (Thailand)
NMB-Minebea Thai employees take part in a tree-planting campaign
A group of 135 employees from NMB-Minebea Thai joined 20 teachers and students from Banratbamrung School to plant trees in the Sublungka Wildlife Sanctuary, Lop Buri Province. The volunteers planted 100 trees, while also building an irrigation canal and dams. The company also made a donation of books and stationary to support school activities.
The objectives of the activity were to:
- Build good communication with the community through the activities
- Increase employee awareness and understanding of the importance of forest preservation
- Restore biodiversity to the forest and protect wildlife food sources
- Prevent global warming
