 CORPORATE SOCIAL
RESPONSIBILITY

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming an increasingly

important activity to businesses nationally and internationally. As
globalisation accelerates and large corporations serve as global
providers, these corporations have progressively recognised the benefits
of providing CSR programs in their various locations. CSR activities are
now being undertaken throughout the globe.
THE KEY DRIVERS FOR CSR
ARE:
􀂉 ENLIGHTENED SELF-INTEREST - CREATING A SYNERGY OF
ETHICS, A COHESIVE SOCIETY AND A
SUSTAINABLE GLOBAL ECONOMY WHERE MARKETS,
LABOUR AND COMMUNITIES ARE ABLE TO
FUNCTION WELL TOGETHER.

􀂉 SOCIAL INVESTMENT - CONTRIBUTING TO PHYSICAL

INFRASTRUCTURE AND SOCIAL CAPITAL IS
INCREASINGLY SEEN AS A NECESSARY PART OF DOING
BUSINESS.
 Transparency and trust - business has low ratings of trust
in public perception.

There is increasing expectation that companies will be

more open, more accountable and be prepared to report
publicly on their performance in social and environmental
arenas

Increased public expectations of business - globally

companies are expected to do more than merely provide
jobs and contribute to the economy through taxes and
employment.”
Introduction:-
Toyobo was founded in 1882 as a textile company, when it began its
spinning and textile business. We continued to adapt to the changing needs of
the times, drawing on our core technologies in polymerization, modification,
processing and biotechnology to expand our business fields and develop the
kind of high-performance products. 

These product lines have been organized into three specialty business segments
—Films and Functional Polymers, Industrial Materials, and Life Science—in
which we are prioritizing growth and expansion. We have further identified
“priority businesses” within these specialty businesses in which Toyobo has a
particular strength, and which we hope to nurture and develop into a core
business. To accomplish this, we are concentrating business resources in order
to accelerate growth. We also actively pursue business alliances and/or
technology injections to further enhance already strong businesses. 

The Toyobo Group seeks to become a manufacturer of high-function products,

continuously creating new value by enhancing our core technologies.
