The 21st century has been called the century of the environment.
Increasing attention is being paid to the concentration of carbon dioxide in
the air, which produces the greenhouse effect, to dioxins and asbestos that
cause life-threatening effects, and to the safety of product materials and
foods, seen as a root cause of environmental issues.
As the public today has a higher interest in the environment than ever before,
chemical analyses, measurements and surveys with high reliability are of growing
importance
.There are many things that we at Nihon Environmental Services can
do to conserve our irreplaceable environment.
We will use our technologies and knowledge to ensure the safety of life with respect to the environment, food, products and other aspects, to contribute create a sustainable society in which all living things can coexist.
We will provide quality and precision services to evolve into an environmental technical service provider that has the confidence of its customers.
Nihon Environmental Services will respond to new needs and strive to achieve global business expansion.
The measurement and certification services are designed to person the measurement,
analysis and certification required by state and local governments. Mass processing
of samples in a major laboratory enables fast, cost-effective and competitive
services.
The Japanese measurement and certification industry is characterized
by a larger number of small-scale operators than seen in Western markets. There
is room for improvement in efficiency. Our Tokyo Laboratory is already innovative,
but to achieve greater concentration and the higher efficiency, we will expand
our existing laboratories. In addition, we have set up new laboratories in
Western Japan to expand our internal laboratory network to nationwide scale
to provide highly competitive services.
Traditionally food and product component analysis
has been considered as outside of the category of environmental measurement.
However, the scope of environmental issues is now growing after the European
Union’s RoHS Directive and mounting public interest in traceability related
to safety of food and product materials.
Nihon Environmental Services has been pioneering efforts to tackle these subjects.
We will continue with our independent research and development without being
swayed by the conventional definition of environmental issues and we will actively
introduce overseas technologies so that we can offer a broad range of high value
added services in the area of safety in clothing, food and housing.
Going forward, the environmental industry is likely to experience a major
trend towards the provision of services from a global standpoint. Nihon Environmental
Services will make two different efforts for globalization.
One effort is to adopt international standards in risk assessment and other services.
For example, soil pollution and other environmental risks often act as adverse
factors to real estate transactions. In line with economic globalization, we
will introduce international standards so that we can respond to the needs of
overseas enterprises and investors.
The other effort is overseas expansion of our established technologies for environmental
impact assessment. Nowadays environmental destruction attributable to China’s
rapid economic growth often raises concerns. Even in developing countries, interest
in environmental issues is consistently rising. As a member of the international
community, Nihon Environmental Services will address environmental questions
from a global perspective.
The businesses of Nihon Environmental Services have high social and public
significance the environmental measurement and certification business is a
good example.
These operations are crucial to the impartial and accurate determination of the
true state of the environment.
Nihon Environmental Services regards statutory compliance as the basic principle
of its management. We will rigidly observe all laws, regulations and rules to
carry out sincere and fair corporate activities that adhere to social standards.
Nihon Environmental Services is capable of contributing to the safety and
protection of society through its analysis of the environment, food and products,
field surveys and consulting services. It must therefore provide highly reliable
services based on its social responsibility and public mission in environmental
conservation.
Our social obligations includes the responsibility to create legally compliant
reports, the legal responsibility to obey laws, regulations and rules as a member
of society, the ethical responsibility to respect human rights and to take action
in line with society's standards, and the responsibility to make a social contribution
as a good corporate citizen that advances in step with society through its work.
Constantly reminding ourselves of the need to complete these tasks, we remain
committed to sound management based on self-responsibility, and will seek to
practice fair and transparent in our corporate management so that we can exist
as part of our community.
Given the gravity of its social responsibilities, Nihon Environmental Services
is unable to achieve sustained business growth without the confidence of its
customers.
The customer-oriented principle followed by Nihon Environmental Services does
not mean accepting any request from customers or serving our customers without
regard to profitability. At Nihon Environmental Services, every single officer
and employee is required to constantly think about how they can offer services
that customers really need, quickly and cost effectively. Nihon Environmental
Services aspires to win the further trust of customers by keeping this principle
in mind to finance new investments and to launch new services funded by the earnings
that come from customer confidence in our services.
