In preparation for the “Sustainability Report 2020”

This report has been prepared as Unicharm Group's corporate sustainability which is embodied by our corporate philosophy “NOLA & DOLA*”. Here, we will take a closer look at how we are working to practice NOLA & DOLA through our businesses. This year as well, we will stipulate the progress of our initiatives for corporate social responsibility (CSR) key topics and, at the same time, strive to further improve the report from the view-point of ESG information disclosure.

Furthermore, as for our global report, we refer to the UN Global Compact, ISO26000 and GRI Guidelines throughout the whole report.

We will continue to accommodate the requests of our stakeholders to the greatest extent possible. Therefore, we ask that you go through our “Integrated Report 2020” as well as the newly published update summary, and provide whatever any frank opinions and comments you may have.

  • * NOLA&DOLA: “Necessity of Life with Activities & Dreams of Life with Activities.” From newborn infants to the elderly, Unicharm aims to provide people with products that provide physical and psychological support through gentle care so that they may be free of their burdens to fulfill their dreams.
