Green Products - Environmentally-Conscious Products

Results of Superior GPs

We introduced the Superior GP Accreditation Program in fiscal 2005 and accredited 66 product items as Superior GPs in fiscal 2007. As a result of improving the environmental performance of our products through concerted efforts, and by establishing a foundation for developing and marketing GPs, we were able to substantially increase the number of Superior GPs compared to fiscal 2006 (37 products accredited as Superior GP).
