Sustainability
Message
Fujitec strives to operate under a Japanese business principle of success through responsibility or "Sanpo Yoshi." It means business transactions provide benefits to all parties; the seller, the buyer and society at large. The local communities will be positivity impacted by the volunteering of time, resources and talents by the Fujitec teams across the world. In addition, Fujitec also values our Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted by the United Nations General Assembly, that represent social issues by the year 2030.
As an environmentally and socially focused company, Fujitec strives to fulfill our social responsibilities in solving social issues, such as combating the spread of infectious diseases and reducing carbon emissions. As a provider of social infrastructure, we can define areas in which only we can make a contribution. Moreover, we will use touch-less and Ionful technologies, to create environments that offer safe and reliable products in the post-COVID-19 era. We will continue to make Fujitec a more robust and aligned global company that answers customer needs through our state of the art technologies.
