The amount of packaging materials used by Toshiba Group
in FY2012 was 70,000 tons. As the number of shipments increases,
the amount of packaging materials used also tends
to increase. Nevertheless, we will work to reduce the use of
packaging materials in accordance with the characteristics
of each business area and product category through various
measures, such as reducing packaging volume, enlarging
the size of returnable (reusable) cases and using materials
with low environmental impact.
