We are continuously focused on taking measures to reduce energy consumption at our production sites, sales branches and research facilities.
These measures include the use of LED lighting and motion sensor lighting, as well as the introduction of solar panels on warehouse roofs. We also seek to use renewable energy and reduce carbon emissions caused by transportation.
In 2021, the Head Office used the Japanese J-Credit Scheme to purchase credits that offset CO2 emissions. Certified by the Japanese government, this system allows CO2 emission reductions and absorption achieved through energy conservation, renewable energy production, and forest management to be traded as credits and used in a variety of ways. Canon Medical Systems Corporation Headquarters is a major emitter of CO2 and through the J-Credits Scheme we purchased carbon credits equivalent to 10% of our annual CO2 emissions. In this way, we are contributing to a Low Carbon Society in Japan.

“We develop a range of ultrasound systems, from the premium systems at universities and hospitals, to tablet size products that are used in clinics. We apply the principles of eco-conscious design and we continue to improve our products by using less raw material and resources in the production phase. Until the end of the life cycle, we regularly offer our customers options for refurbishment that extends the lifetime of their products.”
