What Aska Company can do for a sustainable society
Due to the problem of plastic waste, "de-plasticization" has become a global issue.
As a plastic molding company, Aska Company is committed to the realization of a sustainable society under its duties and responsibilities.
Aska Company's Environmental Policy
Based on the Ministry of the Environment's national policy (Plastic Resource Recycling Strategy), we have set policies and specific initiatives to be achieved in the future.
- Reduction of plastic usage per product
- Enhance efforts to mono-materials
- Promotion of upcycling of in-house processing losses
- Proposal for optimal biomass plastics
- External collaboration and cooperation
- Community and social contribution
We have established an "Environmental Team" to address these five themes.
1. Reduction of plastic usage per product
Realization of thinner and lighter products by product design
Development of spout caps for pouch containers
2. Enhance efforts to mono-materials
Product design with recyclability in mind
Proposal of resins suitable for mono-materialization
3. Promotion of upcycling of in-house processing losses
Upcycling is to add value to items scheduled for disposal by modifying them and transforming them into new products.
Social implementation of products using 100% raw materials extracted from losses in in-house manufacturing processes
Promotion of pre-consumer recycling
4. Proposal for optimal biomass plastics
Proposals and prototype evaluations for social implementation of biomass plastics
Acquisition of "ISCC Plus Certification" as an adaptation to the mass balance method.

5. External collaboration and cooperation
Through external collaboration and endorsement of national initiatives, we aim to implement products that reduce greenhouse gas emissions
