Society

Basic Concept

We are committed to resolving a range of issues that emerge in society over the medium to long term.

As a Company That Supports Society

Society as a whole faces a number of pressing issues, such as fiscal problems in public administration due to a declining population, and disasters that are becoming more severe due to global warming. The Daiei Kankyo Group will actively take a variety of measures to solve these issues and fulfill our responsibility as a company that supports society.

Establishment of Local Circular Ecological Spheres

As the working population continues to decline, there is an urgent need for expenditure reform in public administration to achieve fiscal soundness. We believe that it is essential to work toward the creation of a sustainable society by having the private sector efficiently develop and manage waste management facilities, an indispensable social infrastructure for local communities. By the end of FY2030, our group aims to build consensus for the establishment of local Circular Ecological Spheres through public-private partnerships in 12 locations across Japan. We will work with the municipalities of each area and reliable partner companies to circulate waste into the community as energy and resources at energy centers established in accordance with the conditions of each region.

Disaster waste management

Preparation for disasters, which are becoming more severe as a result of global warming, is a pressing issue for society as a whole, and is also important in promoting public-private partnerships. Our group has constructed a framework that enables us to respond to disaster waste management in a consistent and prompt manner through such things as the establishment of systems, the development of proprietary technologies, networking among businesses, and the revision of response manuals.

Revitalization of the forestry industry

Efforts to conserve forests are important as a measure to cope with global warming. We will contribute to the revitalization of Japan’s forestry industry by developing efficient forest management projects that balances the environment and the economy.

Promotion of local employment

We actively promote local employment with the aim of revitalizing communities. We are working with agricultural producers’ cooperative corporations and Izumi Recycling Environment Park to provide skills and knowledge to people employed in the local community.

Seminars for clients

We hold seminars for our clients. These seminars are well received for their wide-ranging content delivered from the perspective of waste generators.

Collection of plastic bottle caps

4,000 babies and children die every day, or 1 every 20 seconds, due to a lack of vaccines.* We collect plastic bottle caps with the cooperation of all our employees as well as other organizations and individuals who support our activities, and donate the equivalent amount of raw materials (15 yen per kilogram) to the Japan Committee, Vaccines for the World’s Children. The collected caps are turned into plastic pallets at our plastic recycling plant.

Izumi Recycling Environment Park

Izumi Recycling Environment Park in Izumi City, Osaka Prefecture, was originally a controlled final disposal site. This park is the embodiment of our desire to return former landfill sites to local communities as recreational spaces filled with nature. The park’s facilities incorporate a variety of recycled materials. Many people visit the park throughout the year to enjoy seasonal flowers and sports.
