Basic Approach

The Isuzu Group works actively to give due consideration to global environmental conservation across all of its business areas, aiming to achieve No.1 in environmental friendliness, one of the goals set out in the MISSION of ISUZU ID, our corporate philosophy framework. Additionally, through the development and operation of an environmental management system, we work to reduce environmental impact in every aspect of our operations and are advancing initiatives toward achieving Isuzu Environmental Vision 2050 and realizing a sustainable society.

Isuzu Group's Charter on the Global Environment

The Charter serves as a guideline for all members of the Isuzu Group in their environmental activities.

Basic Policy

Realization of a prosperous and sustainable society

We, the members of the Isuzu Group, regard it as an important business challenge to preserve the global environment so that our planet remains prosperous and sustainable and can be passed on to future generations. In this regard, we pursue our business activities in all areas with an awareness of environmental conservation.

Reduced environmental burden for all business operations

The Isuzu Group recognizes our responsibility in supporting transportation, offers enhanced products and services to our global customers through close cooperation with all Group companies, and develops and operates our environmental management system to reduce the environmental burden of all of our business areas.

Action Guidelines

1 Create a sustainable society

We coordinate our business operations and environmental initiatives, thereby offering environmentally-aware, high-value-added products and services to society.

2 Comply with environmental laws and minimize the environmental load

In an effort to minimize the impact on the environment from our business operations, we ensure that we comply with environmental laws and engage in key environmental issues in all of our business areas from development to production, distribution, sales and servicing, addressing climate change, resource recycling, prevention of environmental risks from hazardous substances, environmental measures and conservation of biodiversity.

3 Promote environmental technology

We promote the development of technology to reduce the environmental load applied throughout the product lifecycle.

4 Maintain proactive social communication

We maintain a positive attitude toward the disclosure of product, service, and business activity information on the environment, promoting good communication with members of society and communities, and work toward realizing a prosperous society.

5 Foster environmental awareness as corporate citizen

We engage in perpetual efforts to foster environmental awareness in each Group member as a corporate citizen operating in a local community, encouraging them to learn about and act toward environmental conservation.

Isuzu Environmental Vision 2050

In order for society to be prosperous and sustainable in 2050, and for Isuzu to continue to support transportation, in March 2020 the Isuzu Group formulated the Isuzu Environmental Vision 2050. The Environmental Vision represents the Isuzu Group's desired future state, established through a scenario analysis of 2050 based on climate-related and socio-economic scenarios. The Environmental Vision identifies four key environmental challenges (Climate Change Measures, Resource Circulation Promotion, Environmental Risk Prevention and Response, and Biodiversity Conservation), and by collaborating with stakeholders to advance these initiatives, we aim to achieve five Aspirations.

2030 Environmental Roadmap

To achieve the Environmental Vision, we established the 2030 Environmental Roadmap (hereinafter the Roadmap) in 2022. The Roadmap outlines the goals (2030 Challenge) and specific action plans (Global Action) to be pursued by 2030 as an intermediate milestone. The Roadmap sets out, as of 2022, how Isuzu views the realization of the Environmental Vision and how it intends to proceed, as considered and compiled by the parties involved. The situation may change significantly in the future due to technological advances and changes in the social environment. While adapting flexibly to such changes, Isuzu will steadily advance its efforts to achieve the Aspirations set forth in the Isuzu Environmental Vision and will continue to address environmental challenges, including Green Transformation (GX).

Isuzu Environmental Vision 2050

Management Structure

To promote sustainability throughout the Group, Isuzu has established the Sustainability Committee, whose standing members are the officers responsible for each area. Beginning in fiscal 2027, the President and Representative Director serves as Chair, strengthening management-led promotion of sustainability. For the environment, four environmental subcommittees have been established under the Sustainability Committee, and they work to address each issue. The activities of each subcommittee are reported to the Board of Directors and the Management Meeting through the Sustainability Committee. An Environmental Subcommittee for consolidated subsidiaries has been established under the Isuzu Group Sustainability Liaison Conference. In this subcommittee, the subsidiaries are divided into groups according to factors such as region and type of business, and activities are advanced across the entire Isuzu Group.
