We are asking for cooperation and understanding regarding the Tamura Group Procurement Guidelines established in FY2007, from our suppliers and business partners. Following FY2009, we collected survey forms in FY2010 again from our major business partners in Japan to confirm the state of progress made in CSR promotion. |

In order to deliver environment-friendly and safe products to customers, the Tamura Group established its Green Procurement Standards in 2002. These standards were revised in FY2009 and FY2010 to further promote active procurement of parts and components with less environmental impact from suppliers and other business partners engaged in environmental protection activities. Furthermore, we are asking them to build environmental management systems and systems that guarantee chemical substance control based on the Guidelines for the Management of Chemical Substances in Products from JAMP/JGPSSI,* and to conduct research on environmentally controlled substances specified by the Tamura Group. |
