Clothing Collection Activities
Sanyo aims to contribute to the realization of a "resource-recycling society" in which limited resources are efficiently utilized and resources are recycled in a sustainable manner under the materiality of "Efforts toward a circular economy".
As part of our efforts to address this materiality, we have named our 3R (reduce, reuse, recycle) activities "SANYO RE: PROJECT" and started a new clothing collection activity in March 2024.In this activity, we try as much as possible to reuse collected clothing, including resale, in order to ensure that it can be worn for a longer period of time before it is recycled. In fi fiscal 2024, we reused 37% of the collected items, and more than 99% of the remaining 63% were reused through our business partners.
