Communication with local communities
The Group conducts plant tours, school visits, and lectures at each of its locations.
In 2023, we participated in the "Summer Children's Chemistry Experiment Show 2023," a chemistry experiment event for elementary school students, which was held for the first time in four years since 2019.
We also participated in "Summer Rico-challe 2023," a program promoted by the Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology to support female junior and senior high school students in their choice of career paths in science and engineering fields.
Through these activities, we are promoting interest in chemistry and understanding of our company to local residents and the next generation of students and children.
