In all aspects of its business,Akebono is practicing the effective utilization ofresources with the aim of contributing to a recyclingsociety.*Mass balance is a quantitative balance that represents the balanceof resources consumed and waste emitted (including gas,smoke dust, etc.) during the entire life cycle of a given material,from generation through use, emission, recovery, recycling and reuseafter recycling to final disposal.**Values for NOx, SOx and smoke dust represent total emission volumesfrom facilities subject to the regulations***Scope of calculation covers operations in Yamagata, Fukushima,Miharu, Tatebayashi, Iwatsuki and SanyoWaste Generated in Fiscal 2012(primary operations in Japan)Metal19,000t62%Volumegenerated30,500tFriction materials2,600t 9%Sludge 800t 3%Oil waste andwaste fluid2,800t 9%Slag4,600t15%Waste plastic 200t 1%Paper, wood and cardboard 100t 0%Others 400t 1%Fiscal 2012 Volume of Waste Generated andRecycling Ratio (major operations in Japan)33,600tChange in Total Volume of Waste Generated andRecycling Ratio (major operations in Japan)Total volume of waste generated includes resources of value,such as metals.Reused within production process 500t 2%direct landfill disposal 0t 0%Values represent aggregation of eight operations.

In fiscal 2012, the Group’s total waste emission volume decreased 3,100 tons, or 9%, from fiscal 2011. We continue to pursuezero emissions through such efforts as recycling waste sand into cement raw materials, which we began outsourcing in 2010.Environmental ManagementProduct Life Cycles and Environmental Impact Mass Balance*With an eye on product life cycles, we seek to reduce the environmental load at all stages fromdesign and development to the recycling of used products.
