Environment Environmental Business
We aim to both expand the range of green products we handle, and be in harmony with the environment.
In our Environmental Business, we also promote the use of environmentally-friendly biodiesel fuel made from vegetable oil.
In addition, we sell environmentally-friendly AdBlue®, a high-grade urea water that reduces the nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted by diesel vehicles, and supply renewable energy through solar power generation at six sites across Japan.
As an energy supply company for more than seventy years since our founding, our social mission is to face environmental issues, further strengthen and enhance the green products we handle, and to contribute to bringing about a carbon-neutral society.
