2019年以来、蘇州の従業員は、工場近くの地域にボランティアで植林を行うことで、持続可能な未来を築くことに貢献してきました。こうした取り組みの結果、都市の景観に数百本の新しい樹木が新たに加えられました。
毎年恒例のこのイベントは、親会社のSuperior Essexを通じて、エセックス古河の国連の4つのSDGsへの取り組みにも沿ったものです。
木を植えることは、目標3「すべての人に健康と福祉を」、11「住み続けられるまちづくりを」、13「気候変動に具体的な対策を」、15「陸の豊かさも守ろう」の達成にそれぞれ寄与します。このイベントは、エセックス古河が掲げる「ビジョン2030」、「環境」、「地域コミュニティの美化」の一環として実施されるものです。

コミュニティフードバンク、小さな図書館
インディアナ州フォートウェインのキャンパスの従業員は、従業員の集めた資金でフードパントリーや青少年向けの図書館を運営し、工場周辺地域にサービスを提供することで、地域社会に貢献しています。
トレオン市は資源への影響を低減
国連の報告によると、2025年までに27億人が水不足の影響を受けるとされています。これは世界人口の3人に1人が影響を受けることを意味します。 トレオン市やメキシコのその他の地域では、水不足の影響はより深刻です。
メキシコの工場では、中水への取り組みを実施して以来、水の使用量を1日あたり約150立方メートル(1日あたり39,625ガロン)削減したことが実証されています。
