On December 1, 2021, our company entered into a business alliance with Impact Co., Ltd. (Representative Director: Shinji Hasegawa, Location: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter referred to as Impact), a company engaged in the renewable energy refining business, regarding the development and sales of biomass fuel derived from waste.
1. Reasons for the business partnership
Based on our founding principle of "contributing to society from a global perspective with the aim of realizing a sustainable society," we have been working with Impact Inc. to develop a biomass fuel refining business (recycling of industrial waste) from waste tire chips in Chiba Prefecture.
In recent years, with the aim of realizing a "decarbonized society," not only waste tires but also various other waste materials and plant-derived biomass fuels have been attracting attention. Moving forward, following the commercialization of our waste tire chip refining business, we have been considering research and development and the establishment of a system for new business ventures as one of our important management challenges.
Impact Inc., led by President Hasegawa, possesses unique technology for refining biomass fuel from various types of waste. Furthermore, it is a research and development-oriented company with a proven track record in the development of numerous renewable energy sources.
By entering into a business partnership with this company, we will complement our research and development of biomass fuels and contribute to solving new social challenges as quickly as possible.
2. Details of the business partnership
Our company aims to enhance our competitive advantage in the market by commercializing Impact's waste-derived fuel conversion technology, combining it with our own overseas network, and rapidly expanding our business globally.
