Environmental Policies

Being based in an area blessed with an abundance of natural beauty, we are fully aware of how the processes involved in producing dies and automobile parts can affect the local and global environment. We consider our environmental management systems to be one of the fundamental bases of our operations, with the ultimate goal of conserving our planet's irreplaceable environment. To this end we have formulated the following environmental policies:

1. We will put into place such internal organizational structures as are needed to preserve the environment, and will continue to improve these through periodical reassessment of operating conditions.
2. We will strictly adhere to and incorporate into the environmental conservation program all legal requirements, as well as any other non-binding requests that we agree to.
3. We will work to mollify the effects of noise and vibration on our immediate area, as well as improving environmental conditions in the local area in general.
4. We will reduce the environmental burden as much as possible following the latest developments in the fields of recycling and energy conservation, and will make every effort to use resources effectively.
5. We will prevent environmental pollution caused by oil or other liquids leaking as a result of accidents or other emergencies.
6. We will ensure that all employees are familiar with our environmental policies, and aim to increase their awareness of environmental conservation.
7. We will promote our environmental policies through both our web site and printed materials.
