The products we provide to customers are resources or, in other words, “blessings from the earth.” It is, therefore, indispensable to preserve the planet in all of its abundance and, so, as global citizens, we have the responsibility of protecting the environment. For this reason, the Brother Group continually positions environmental activities as topics requiring our attention in business management. Our environmental management efforts aim to balance economics and the environment. We continue to address global environmental protection with the same basic stance of “At your side.”
