Orbray’s initiatives regarding its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Since our company’s founding, we have pushed the manufacturing process to ever higher levels of precision, while maintaining a spirit of compassion, in keeping with Japan’s traditional philosophy. We have pursued the development of Earth-friendly, sustainable technologies and products, such as our synthetic jewel parts. We have also engaged in a variety of activities to contribute to local communities: conducting factory tours for students, and opening nursery schools on our factory sites; holding local events to allow our communities to get to know us better, and vice versa; planting trees; and recycling used uniforms.

These activities have enabled us to develop proprietary technologies to serve the needs of our local and global community, while enhancing the motivation and sense of unity among employees. We are much richer as a company because of our ties to our local communities.

With the spirit of compassion, we will continue to be energetic in cultivating human resources and relationships with local communities, while manufacturing state-of-the-art products. Through our contributions to a sustainable and safe society, we intend to maintain our company and support our communities far into the future. In particular:

  • (1) We aim to create a sustainable future by manufacturing high-value-added, precision products in niche markets.
  • (2) We will advance our efforts to offer employees the training and working environment necessary to improve their skills, build their careers, and become well-rounded members of society.
  • (3) As a firm deeply entrenched in our communities, we will cooperate in community planning, and join forces with local residents to preserve nature. For example, we will utilize unused facilities for disaster relief, and carry out further tree planting and forest management to protect residents from torrential rains and landslide disasters. Our goal is to ensure that we are a sustainable company in a sustainable environment, able to pass our advanced technology on to younger generations who will embrace the standards we are setting for our company and our communities.

By endeavoring to be responsible to all our stakeholders, including the Earth, in our business and community activities, we will continue to make progress in sustainable manufacturing, to protect our beautiful global environment, create a prosperous society, and secure a happy future for our children.
