NSG’s UFF and glanova SCS Certified Recycled Content
NSG Group UFF ultra-fine flat glass and glanova chemically strengthened glass, manufactured in the Group’s Maizuru plant (Maizuru, Kyoto) have received Recycled Content Certification from SCS Global Services (SCS), the third-party environmental sustainability certification and auditing organization. These glass products are used for a wide range of applications such as electronics, touch panel glass, cover glass, mobile devices, auto interiors, office automation and factory automation.
With this certification, it is now recognised by an independent organization that more than 35% of materials in UFF and 38% of it in glanova are made from pre-consumer recycled glass such as trimmed glass from the manufacturing processes of float glass. Although this certification is limited to some items of each brand, with the certification of these products as a stepping stone, NSG aim to develop a brand of environmentally friendly products that meet the needs of the market in the future.
NSG Group has developed the Sustainability Policy and the Environmental Policy and seeks to manage environmental impacts while balancing the needs of all stakeholders and pursuing manufacturing process improvements and product innovations by incorporating resource recycling measures in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals. It continues to strive to realise a sustainable society through our high-value-added “glass products and services”.
