Product Stewardship

Basic Policy

Product stewardship is one of the foundational initiatives in pursuing Responsible Care (RC) activities. Based on our mission of striving to realize KAITEKI and our view on product stewardship, the Mitsubishi Chemical Group works to ensure thorough compliance, product quality, safety and security, and minimize risks to people and the environment throughout all stages of the product life cycle for chemical substances, from procurement of raw materials to development, manufacturing, distribution and transport, use, reuse, and disposal.

■ Compliance

We exercise thorough compliance throughout the product life cycle, from procurement of raw materials to disposal, so customers can use our products and services with confidence.

■ Communication

We check information on the substances contained in raw materials and communicate information on a product’s hazardous properties through the supply chain, based on the information on the hazardous properties we have confirmed.

■ Risk assessment

We conduct risk assessments at each stage of the life cycle and manage risks while also striving to minimize them.
