Formulation of Green Procurement Standards
When procuring raw materials, parts, and products, the Mitsuboshi Belting Group comprehensively evaluates not only “quality, price, delivery time” but also “environmental load and environmental conservation efforts” in addition to the procurement criteria. The Green Procurement Standards were established in March 2005 and have been revised since then to reflect the latest legal and regulatory trends.
