1. Overview


1. (1) About ECO-VC Activity

4

ECO-VC (ECO Value Creation) Activity• Panasonic's procurement operations aim to achieve both reduced greenhouse gases with

recycling-oriented manufacturing and reduced costs through environmentally-aware activities: energy savings in our products and suppliers, reduced resource usage with lighter and more compact products with a lower number of parts, use of recycled materials, and shifting to fossil fuel-free materials.VC means an abbreviation of Value Creation

• We gather ideas from our suppliers worldwide to introduce the most outstanding examples at the ECO-VC Activity award ceremony and networking event. Ideas shared with our suppliers in this way are spread throughout the entire Panasonic Group.This activity began in fiscal 2009.

1. (4) Key Points of ECO-VC Activity

7

Key Words Examples of Initiatives and AchievementsEnergy saving of products - Developed a power supply unit whose switching supply efficiency is 15% higher than the previous model.

- Reduced power consumption of the product during standby mode to less than 0.1 W by developing a

special microcomputer.

Energy saving in the manufacturing (factory) - Reduced the power consumption by 20 % in the process for producing the register of micro chips with the energy saving

activities to implementing an insulation in hearing furnace, and etc.

Implementation of renewable energy - Exchange from the current power generation to solar power (renewable energy) in the manufacturing process of motor

Development of smaller size

and lighter weight products

- Reduce and shrink LSI package

- Shrink chip size.

Part standardization and common use - Reduce to create new die (mold tool) by commoditized existing cover and case

Resource conservation - Reduction in Total Resources Used. Utilize 100% recycled materials.

- Reduce packing materials by utilizing reusable and returnable container.

Recycled materials - Utilize recycled resins (plastics)

Alternative materials and single material - Significantly reduced product prices achieved cost rationalization by changing the copper tube to iron tube

Use new materials - Adopted a new material with outstanding thermal conductivity for the radiator plate and reduced the

internal temperature by 15°celsius. As a result, made cost rationalization by eliminated cooling fan,

and enabled to replace heat-resistant capacitor with a standard capacitor.

Less parts - Enabled the integration of components by improving die (mold tool) and pressing processes.

As a result, significantly reduced the number of parts.

- Reduced 25% of circuit components per unit.

Transportation efficiency - Improvement in a loading rate, joint transportation and consolidated service

Direct transportation

/ round transportation

- Implementing direct transportation to the warehouse and utilize return track

Improve packaging - Optimized size for transportation and storage, downsizing by minimum packaging,

review type of materials

Modal shift - Change type of transportation such as from truck to rail lord, or vessel

Use Eco-friendly (low emission) vehicle - Introducing and utilize eco-track, and promote eco-conscious drive

Biofuel - Use biofuel proactively

Effective use of warehouse space - Improve storage efficiency, consolidate warehouse locations, and eliminate defect inventory

Development of new transportation route - Reduce air freight transportation, contribute to reduce lead time

Others - Reduced VOC and CO2 emissions by eliminating the housing coating through the development

of a weldless molding method.
