The deepening and increasing importance of environmental issues. Kenbunsya contributes to society and the environment through initiatives aimed at carbon neutrality with "environmentally considerate printing."
Until now, Kenbunsha has been engaged in various environmentally friendly initiatives through printing technology aimed at cleanliness and energy conservation. As a result, in 2019, we received the highest award, the "Director-General of the Commerce and Information Policy Bureau of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Award," at the 18th Printing Industry Environmental Excellence Awards. Additionally, we have been registered as an "Amagasaki SDGs Partner" by Amagasaki City in Hyogo Prefecture, where our factory is located. Based on this achievement, we will strive to further enhance our efforts in CO2 reduction and actively pursue initiatives toward carbon neutrality, aiming to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions entirely. The "Japan Sustainable Printing Association," established with the purpose of contributing to the healthy development of the printing industry and social contribution, promotes the dissemination of environmentally conscious printing, known as "environmentally friendly printing," and advances initiatives toward realizing a sustainable society within the printing industry. Our company is a member of this association.

basic information
Starting from April 2023, Kenbunsha will be able to calculate the CO2 emissions of printed materials based on LCA (Life Cycle Assessment). We will be able to assess the total emissions throughout the entire life cycle (raw material procurement, manufacturing, distribution, sales, use, and disposal) and display this information on the printed materials. Making CO2 emissions "visible" will help promote a change in awareness aimed at achieving carbon neutrality. Specifically, for customers who request "Carbon Zero Print," we will report the emissions incurred during printing through a "CO2 Emission Data Sheet." Furthermore, for customers who request "Carbon Neutral Print," we will issue a "Carbon Offset Certificate." Printed materials will bear the marks for "Environmentally Friendly Printing" and "CO2 Emission Calculation." Environmentally conscious printing will enhance your company's corporate evaluation through the following value propositions: ● Establishing a brand image by actively disclosing efforts towards ESG and SDGs ● Promoting initiatives against global warming ● A tool to announce environmental efforts ● Traditional printed materials evolving into "environmentally friendly products" ● Differentiation from competitors
