EPSON has been placed on the prestigious corporate sustainability ‘A List’ by global environmental non-profit CDP for leadership in tackling climate change and protecting water security. CDP is an organisation that answers the demands of worldwide institutional investors and major purchasers by researching and evaluating corporations’ environmental disclosures and its annual environmental disclosure and scoring process is widely recognised as the global standard of corporate environmental transparency. A detailed and independent methodology is used by CDP to assess these companies, allocating a score of A to D based on the comprehensiveness of disclosure, awareness and management of environmental risks and demonstration of best practices associated with environmental leadership, such as setting ambitious and meaningful targets.
Striving to achieve its Environmental Vision 2050, EPSON will leverage their efficient, compact and precision technologies as they take aggressive measures to reduce the environmental impact of their products and business operations and throughout their value chain. In October 2019, the company indicated approval of the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and believes this A List recognition is a result of closely following the CDP requirements for TCFD disclosures.
