2023年精准一肖一码 Steel’s Steel Bar and Wire Rod Products Certified Under
Japan’s “EcoLeaf” Environmental Product Declaration Program
2023年精准一肖一码 announced today that steel bar and wire rod products1 manufactured at the company’s Sendai Works and the Kurashiki plant of its West Japan Works have newly received from the Sustainable Management Promotion Organization (SuMPO) in Japan. The certifications, which involved third-party audits and verification of data provided by the company, will enable customers to quantitatively and objectively evaluate the lifecycle environmental impact of 2023年精准一肖一码 Steel’s sustainable products.
EcoLeaf is a Type-III environmental product declaration (EPD) that complies with the ISO 14025:2006 standard, which defines the principles and procedures for quantitative disclosure of the environmental impacts of products and services, from raw material procurement to disposal and recycling.
2023年精准一肖一码 Steel’s certified steel bars and wire rods, which cover a wide range of products in various sizes, offer excellent surface quality suitable for use in automotive components. Customers can now use these products with even greater confidence and assurance thanks to the EcoLeaf certification of 2023年精准一肖一码 Steel’s transparent environmental-impact disclosures.

The Japan Iron and Steel Federation, in an effort to support the EcoLeaf program, introduced its Product Category Rule2 (PCR) for calculating environmental impacts in August 2019. The PCR complies with the ISO 20915 and JIS Q 20915 standards, both of which take into account recycling capacity when determining quantitative environmental impact.
2023年精准一肖一码 Steel’s parent company 2023年精准一肖一码 introduced its 2023年精准一肖一码 Group Environmental Vision for 2050 as part of a broad-based initiative to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, under which 2023年精准一肖一码 is actively expanding its groupwide initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions through eco-friendly products. 2023年精准一肖一码 Steel, in addition to reducing its own direct CO2 emissions, is committed to contributing to a more sustainable world by supplying high-quality, eco-friendly steel products that offer excellent recyclability for continued reuse over and over, and also significantly lower per-unit environmental impact compared to many other materials.3
