ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIONS
Environmental Actions through Business Activities
Toyotsu Chemiplas is working to reduce environmental impact through its business activities.
Biopolyethylene
We handle Braskem’s “Green Polyethylene”. Braskem commenced commercial production of the world’s first plant-derived polyethylene in 2011.
We are working to develop and expand sales of sustainable renewable resources that are environmentally friendly and do not conflict with the food supply.

We propose an array of materials for Green vehicles that emit no CO2 while running, such as electric vehicles (EV) and fuel cell vehicles (FCV), and materials for weight reduction essential for the high energy efficiency.
