Lead-Free, Non-Chlorinated Solvent and Cyanide-Free Processes, and Equipment Transition Costs
First written in FY2016. 6 of 7 entries say "Restated". Latest entry: FY2025.
The whole theme swung hardest in 2024: 1 of 6 companies on the "Worse" side.
15 other companies' latest entry also says "Restated".
- FY2025RestatedAnnual report
「If substitutes or new techniques are developed in the future, transitioning to new equipment may require considerable time and expense. In Japan, demand for cyanide-free surface treatment has also been increasing.」
The Company continues to identify the burden of equipment transitions and regulatory compliance associated with environmental measures such as lead-free processing, dechlorinated solvents and cyanide-free processing. - FY2023RestatedAnnual report
「The Group is addressing this by improving its surface-treatment processes. However, if substitutes or new techniques are developed in the future, transitioning to new equipment may require considerable time and expense. In Japan, demand for cyanide-free surface treatment has also been increasing. If statutory requirements for discharges such as water and air emissions are tightened in the future, responding to them may require considerable time and expense.」

「The Group is addressing these issues by improving its surface treatment processes. However, if alternative materials or new techniques are developed, transitioning equipment could require substantial time and expense. In Japan and China, demand for cyanide-free surface treatment has also been increasing. If legal requirements to tighten water-quality, air-emission and other discharge standards are introduced in the future, responding to them could require substantial time and expense.」
