Raw Materials Management
Production Waste Management
Raw Material Supplier Assessment
Raw Materials Management
We encourage the use of environmentally friendly raw materials that are sustainably produced or certified by recognized environmental standards. We also review environmental factors, such as certification status and recyclability, and collaborate with suppliers when necessary to continuously improve raw material management practices.
Production Waste Management
We assess raw material suppliers based on environmentally friendly production methods and recognized environmental certifications. We also review environmental factors, including certification status and recyclability, and collaborate with suppliers to continuously improve raw material management standards.
Raw Material Supplier Assessment
The use of raw materials produced in an environmentally friendly manner or certified as eco-friendly is encouraged.
In addition, raw materials produced at the expense of natural capital are tracked, and efforts are made to mitigate significant risks.
■ Energy
We promote sustainable business operations by improving energy efficiency and implementing energy-saving initiatives.
We continuously carry out energy conservation campaigns, facility improvements, and efficiency enhancement activities to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
Energy Reduction Initiatives
Renewable Energy Assessment
Energy management system
Energy Reduction Initiatives
We continuously optimize facility operations and promote energy-saving activities to reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency.
Renewable Energy Assessment
We continuously assess opportunities to utilize renewable energy based on site conditions and economic feasibility.
Energy management system
We regularly monitor energy consumption and conduct equipment inspections to ensure efficient energy management.
■ Water Resource Management
Water conservation initiatives are promoted, and water consumption is monitored to ensure the efficient use of domestic water.
Water Resource Management
Water Supply System Management
Water Resource Management
Regular inspections and maintenance of water supply systems are conducted to ensure stable operation and efficient water resource management.
Water Supply System Management
Water supply facilities are regularly inspected and maintained to ensure a stable water supply.
■ Greenhouse Gas
Actively responding to climate change and aiming for Net Zero, we establish concrete measures to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, gradually transition to renewable energy systems, and implement carbon-neutral policies that include carbon absorption and offset activities, considering operational conditions.
Facility-Wide Reduction
Supply Chain Decarbonization
Products and Services
Facility-Wide Reduction
Achieve carbon neutrality through renewable energy adoption and energy efficiency improvements. Additionally, advance manufacturing technologies and platform innovations—such as eco-friendly smart factories—to establish carbon-neutral production bases.
Supply Chain Decarbonization

Products and Services
Develop dedicated platforms and technologies for eco-friendly products, expand related infrastructure, and promote wider adoption of sustainable products and services to reduce emissions and greenhouse gases.
■ Waste Management
Reduce waste generated during operations and establish waste management and recycling policies to ensure efficient handling.
Waste Tracking Systems
Enhancing Waste Recycling
Waste Tracking Systems
Ensure that all waste generated at the facility is properly managed and traceable in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements.
Enhancing Waste Recycling
Optimal treatment methods are selected based on the type and volume of waste generated during business operations. These efforts minimize the amount of waste sent to landfills and incineration while increasing waste recycling rates.
■ Environmental Pollution
Minimize negative impacts on the natural environment by reducing emissions of air and water pollutants, while prioritizing the safety and health of customers and employees.
Seohan Auto/NTN USA establishes and implements standards to manage the generation and discharge of pollutants in compliance with environmental laws and regulations in each country.
Air Pollutants
Water Pollutants
Air Pollutants
Monitor emissions of air pollutants and invest in reduction facilities and new technologies to ensure levels remain below legal limits.
Water Pollutants
Monitor the discharge levels of water pollutants, such as Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), and operate treatment facilities to ensure compliance with legal discharge limits.
