Epson on CDP 'A List'
Epson has been selected as an A-List company in the Water Security category of the assessment conducted by the international non-profit organisation CDP. In addition, Epson received an A-rating in the Climate Change category.
These ratings reflect CDP’s recognition of Epson’s leadership in addressing issues related to water security and climate change, as well as the transparency of its related disclosures.
CDP represents more than 640 institutional investors with combined assets of over US$127 trillion worldwide. It evaluates corporate environmental actions through environmental disclosures made to CDP.
The results of this assessment are also utilised in the environmental evaluations of leading global socially responsible investment (SRI) indices, which serve as benchmarks for ESG investing.
More than 22,000 companies worldwide disclosed information to CDP. Epson was one of the select few to be named to the A List — about 4% make it — and was acknowledged as one of the leading companies in sustainability.
The company has worked to reduce water usage and strengthen wastewater management by taking into account the regional characteristics of the areas in which its group sites are located, while steadily advancing climate change initiatives over many years through technological innovation and continuous improvements at operating sites.
