Enhanced Response
to Climate Change
The frequent occurrence of extreme weather, damage, and impact on the natural environment caused by climate change poses a major risk to not only businesses but also the activities of communities around the world. Companies have a responsibility to lower CO2 emissions from their business activities and respond to climate change.
Initiatives for Products
Created Sustainable Design Handbook to promote environmentally conscious designs
In the Toy and Hobby Business, we created the Sustainable Design Handbook. To convey environmentally conscious design in an easy-to-understand manner, the handbook provides actual examples of products and conveys creative ideas for environmentally conscious designs. The handbook also tells the extent of CO2 reduction from these ideas (in-house survey results) to visualize the effect of these efforts. We will continue to utilize this handbook as we work on creating sustainable products going forward.

Eco-Amusement Product Certification for arcade games
Bandai Namco Amusement has been producing eco-friendly products called “Eco-Amusement” products since 2012. Based on the Eco-Amusement Product Requirements formulated for the company’s own arcade games sold in Japan, products that meet certain standards in evaluations using seven criteria, such as compliance with green procurement standards, power savings, and resource savings, are certified as “Eco-Amusement” products. For example, the latest CLENA 3 crane game not only takes a creative approach in managing prizes and reducing arcade staff workload based on the know-how acquired from nationwide operations but also uses approximately 56% less power than first-generation CLENA-FLEX by incorporating a power-saving mode.
Furthermore, all products designed by Bandai Namco Amusement and released after February 2019 have Eco-Amusement Product Certification.

Reduce CO2 during plastics incineration
To reduce CO2 generated when plastic is incinerated, MegaHouse began introducing Green Nano to some product packages in March 2023. Green Nano is a technology that can substantially lower CO2 emissions that occur during final disposal by incineration by adding a small amount of carbonization promoter during plastic molding. This makes it possible to reduce CO2 emissions during incineration by about 40%.
