In the next ten years Epson will
Establish 4 actions geared toward achieving the goals of "Environmental Vision 2050."
•Developing a business model in which end-user products have a longer service life/durability and ultimately are returned to Epson
•Reduce CO2 emissions at the component manufacturing stage - Develop energy- and resource-saving designs and substitute technologies
•Halve the Clean Room energy usage by an expert project team •Initiate restoring biodiversity together with other stakeholders, incl. employees and NGOs

4 actions towards “Environmental Vision 2050”
1 - Developing a new business model, longer life and returnable products
• Extending the service life of products,
• Seek to build a business model that enables an efficient resource cycle. – Product reuse,
– Leasing,
– Rentals

1 - Developing a new business model, longer life and returnable products
• During 2008 Epson will establish collect and recycle programs for all consumable lines
– Expand system consumer inkjet cartridges– Expand coverage of system toner cartridges– Establish system for large format inkjet cartridges
• Recycling processes will focus on high quality results
• Next step is investigate potential of refill

• Clean rooms are the Epson’s largest source of CO2 emissions, accounting for about 40% of total emissions.
• 10 year plans will focus on 50% reduction
– Reducing number of clean rooms
– Reducing size of clean rooms
– Improving energy efficiency of clean rooms
Environmental Initiatives Towards 2018

3 - Reduction of clean room energy usage
• Saving energy by reducing the space and operating time required
• Improving efficiency of facilities and equipment
Environmental Initiatives Towards 2018

Approach
Cut operating time and space by 25%
Increase efficiency by 1.5 times
0.75x0.67=0.5
0.75(75% of current level)

Restoring Bio-diversity in area destroyed by fire in Portugal
• Project would be located in the Centre Interior of Portugal, on the slopes of the Gardunha Mountain
• Replant with chestnut and oak, two of the original species that have gradually disappeared
• Reintroduce wildlife

• 2007 achievements
– Relocation of European Warehouse (reduction of 900,000km transport)
– Redirect transport from road to rail
– Use of double deck trucks (reduced CO2 impact by 217 tonnes)
– Airfreight volume reduced by 50% in 4 years
• 2008 will focus on setting long term targets
– Make CO2 emissions measurable in EMEA logistics operation
– Calculate improvements made during last years
– Set EMEA logistics reduction targets for 2009
– Reduce warehouse space by 40% in 4 years ending in 2009
– Asia - customer direct shipment: increase from
• 4% in 2007 to 10% in 2008
European Initiatives: logistics operation
Air Freight volume-60%
Space (m²)-40%

European Initiatives: Advisory Board
• Set up– 2 regional boards: one for Japan, one for Europe
• Aim– Give independent advise and recommendations – On environmental issues, CSR and possibly even quality assurance
• Focal points– The implementation of Vision 2050 – And related environmental and CSR questions
• Meetings– Held on a regular basis in each region– Annually on a global level
• Selection criteria of the members– Knowledge and expertise– Strategic skills in the fields of environment, CSR and beyond
• Communication– Internally– Externally (eco governance)
