Food Drive Held

In December 2022 we organized a food drive* titled “Think SDGs! DAIDO METAL Food Drive Action| as our commitment for SDGs. Food donated from employees was delivered to people and facilities in need of food support through Second Harvest Nagoya, a certified NPO. It was also the first time that our domestic affiliate NDC had carried out this program, and we will be expanding our circle of support in the future.
* A food drive is an activity where households bring unconsumed food that they cannot use and donate them to those who need them through food banks and other means.

【Thailand】 Participation in Mangrove Planting Activity

［Dyna Metal Co., Ltd.］

A total of 50 Dyna Metal Co., Ltd. members participated in mangrove planting activities. In Japan, afforestation is an activity associated with mountain areas, but in Thailand, it is done in tidal flats at the mouths of rivers. Many activities are under way to bring back the former mangrove forests as a way to reduce greenhouse gases while preventing flood damage. The location is a mangrove afforestation park facility situated about an hour by car from Bangkok. Each person planted six mangroves making a total of 300.

Participating in local cleanup activities at the Inuyama Site Office

River cleanup activity

Every year the Company’s Inuyama Site Office participates in river cleanup activities that take place as part of a local event. We have been involved in these river cleanup activities for over five years,
which we tackle as part of our environmental responsibilities due to wastewater also being discharged from the Company’s locations into this river.
