Pioneer considers its environmental contribution to be the delivery of products that offer an "ecological and enriched life."
We are engaged in product development to address and solve the issues related to "prevention of global warming", "resource recycling", and "management of chemical substances contained in products" with our environmental technologies.
Prevention of Global Warming
Recycling of Resources
Management of Chemical Substances Contained in Products
We perform Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) in order to reduce the environmental impact on the lifecycles of products from mining of raw materials to production/distribution of products, and use/disposal by customers. Influence on product lifecycles at each stage is visualized to promote improvements in the environmental performance of products, and the analyzed data that is disclosed on our website.
Flow of Product Assessment from the Lifecycle Viewpoint
Materials composing of parts, amounts used, and electronic parts are selected at the product design stage. In addition, electrical performance such as power consumption is determined at this stage. We conduct product assessments at this important stage to determine the environment performance to realize effective environmental consideration and ensure compliance with environmental laws around the world.
Achievement status is confirmed based on the evaluation system for environmental consideration products at the completion of design. Products are certified as Super Advanced Eco-Model, Advanced Eco-Model or Eco-Model at the time of release.
An award is given to the Development Department of the certified model and this system is also fully used for the purpose of promoting communication such as publication within the company and application for environmental awards.
