Environmental initiatives

Addressing climate change and forming a circular society

The Daibiru Group's commitment to sustainability is one of our most important missions. Guided by our corporate principles and adhering to our Group Code of Conduct, we aim for sustainable development with society through our corporate activities.

Reduction of GHG emissions

The Daibiru Group has set a long-term goal of achieving netzero GHG emissions by 2050, as well as medium-term goals for 2030 of reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 75% and Scope 3 emissions by 30% compared with fiscal 2019.

Reductions in energy consumption

While the energy consumption in our Company-owned buildings*1 fluctuates annually with changes in the operational floor area, our efforts to reduce environmental impact have led to a downward trend in per-unit energy use.

Adoption of emissions-free electricity, and membership in RE100

In April 2022, we introduced emissions-free electricity at all Company-owned buildings in Japan. This refers to electricity with Non-Fossil Certificates*2 compliant with RE100. The introduction of emissions-free electricity in our buildings will enhance the corporate standing of tenants from an environmental perspective since electricity use from offices and stores will not generate CO2 emissions.
Additionally, the Daibiru Group joined RE100 in October 2023 with a goal of sourcing 100% of the electricity consumed in its business activities from RE100-compliant renewable energy by 2025.

Promotion of waste generation volume control and recycling

Various types of waste are generated during the construction and demolition phases of buildings. At Daibiru, we ensure the proper management and disposal of hazardous materials and substances that could lead to environmental pollution in accordance with legal regulations. Additionally, we recover and reuse materials such as concrete debris and refrigerants like lithium bromide used in air conditioning systems. During the Midosuji Daibiru Building redevelopment, the existing structure was repurposed as a retaining wall for soil during excavation.
Even as buildings become operational, we continue to reduce waste, establishing systems for sorting and collecting garbage to promote recycling.
