Effective Use and Recycling of Resources

The Kewpie Group's business operations are sustained by the bounty of nature, starting with the raw materials we use.

Elimination and Effective Utilization of Food Loss

In addition to reducing food waste by improving containers and extending shelf life, we are working to make effective use of food resources.

Reduction and Reuse of Plastic Emissions

While adhering to our "Quality-First" principle, we are also working to reduce the environmental impact of our products and services by making containers lighter and thinner and using recycled materials.

Sustainable Use of Water Resources

We are working towards the effective use of water, which we think is an essential resource that supports people's lives and various industries.
