what is SDGs.

What are the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)?

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the successor to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) formulated in 2001 and described in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted at the UN Summit in September 2015. It is a set of international goals to achieve a sustainable and better world by 2030. Consisting of 17 goals and 169 targets, it aims to solve the global problems faced by all countries and pledges to “Leave No One Behind.” The SDGs are universal, not only for developing countries, but also for developed countries, and Japan is actively involved in the SDGs.

Yamagin's SDGs Declaration

We will take concrete actions to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by linking global environmental issues with economic activities. Specifically, we will contribute to the realization of a sustainable world through the following activities:

5.
Gender Equality

We respect basic human rights, recognize individuality, and promote diversity. We will actively appoint female managers and leaders, with a particular focus on the advancement of women in society and opportunities for them to play an active role. We recognise and value unpaid care and domestic work. And we will promote shared responsibility within the household and the family.

7.
Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all.

We aim to achieve zero waste and zero carbon dioxide emissions by constructing a system to collect used products made from ZERO-TEX®, a fabric developed in-house, and upcycle them into green hydrogen. The upcycled green hydrogen will be used to power cars, trucks, and buses, contributing to the creation of a clean and environmentally friendly community.

8.
Decent work and economic growth

We will promote the use of parental leave and nursing care leave, reform work styles, and improve the working environment, including the use of disinfectants and frequent ventilation. We will prepare flexible employment arrangements, respecting the way workers want to work.

9.
Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization, and foster innovation.

We will launch BIOTECH WORKS, a platform developed by our company that will enable the recycling of fabrics, and create a foundation for technological innovation that fuses industry and IT, where fabrics + tech = upcycling.

12.
Responsible consumption and production

The apparel industry faces many problems in the production process, including water pollution, environmental pollution such as carbon dioxide emissions, and the incineration of inventory due to overproduction. We have developed BIOTECH WORKS, an upcycling system, to improve the responsibility of both the producer and the user.
