JAPAN PURE CHEMICAL : Corporate Information > CSR

With a slogan of “Fast, Accurate and Safe,” the Company responds to customers’ demand by using our efficient production-for-orders system that addresses the need for variety, small quantities and short delivery times.
Raw materials of plating chemicals manufactured by the Company contain substances regulated by the Poisonous and Deleterious Substances Control Law, and the sales, manufacture, import, etc., of such chemicals are restricted. To address this issue, the Company has obtained licenses for the general distribution, manufacture and import of poisonous and deleterious substances and established an internal control system for such substances.
We also educate employees in the manufacturing departments on the proper management of such chemicals.
Given that we deal with various chemicals, we employ a Health Administrator although such a post is not required for a company our size. The Health Administrator is licensed in occupational safety and health and works to ensure employees’ safety and health.

The Company’s R&D and manufacturing processes produce waste liquid and exhaust gas that require environmentally appropriate treatments. Such waste is collected and treated.
We also meticulously control chemical substances to prevent leakage.
Waste liquid produced by R&D precious metal plating experiments and by the manufacturing process of blending plating bath, etc., is treated using our wastewater treatment equipment or outsourced depending on the density. Our wastewater treatment equipment neutralizes, filters and ionizes wastewater at the collected wastewater line. After ensuring that no metal or hazardous ion and substances are detected, the treated water is discharged to sewage.
Gaseous waste from experiments and the manufacturing process is discharged at each process, which is collected and treated by exhaust gas treatment equipment.

The Company collects precious metal plating waste liquid generated by consequence of our development experi- ment and customers’ plating manufacturing process, and has outside professional waste processors refine such waste liquid. From such refined waste liquid, precious
metal is extracted. By reusing the precious metal effectively, we are contributing to a recycling-oriented society that conserves natural resources.
