Komori Corporation has begun full-scale operation of a solar power generation system at Komori Machinery (Nantong) Co., Ltd. (China), Komori’s production base in Nantong.
This initiative, aimed at reducing CO₂ emissions and lowering environmental impact through the use of renewable energy, is aligned with the Komori Eco Vision, Komori’s long-term environmental vision.
Komori Machinery (Nantong) is the Komori Group’s production base in China, manufacturing offset printing presses and related components, primarily for the Greater China market. Together with the Tsukuba Plant (Ibaraki, Japan) and Komori Machinery Co., Ltd. (Yamagata, Japan), it forms part of Komori’s three-plant production structure, enabling advanced product supply capabilities and flexible delivery schedules.
Komori Eco Vision outlines the company’s direction for contributing to a sustainable society built on three key pillars: preventing global warming, supporting a recycling society, and preserving biodiversity. In 2024, Komori updated its medium- to long-term targets for achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The company aims to reduce group CO₂ emissions by 26 percent compared with FY2022 levels and lower operating emissions from its main printing presses by 30 percent by FY2030.
Komori is actively promoting the introduction of solar power generation systems across its domestic and overseas production sites. In 2016, a 500 kW solar panel system was installed at the Tsukuba Plant in Japan.
