We developed the following three products by joint development with your company in 06. However,
since the market price of the product fell, We received the demand of the further cost
rationalization. Moreover, since raw material also soared, the material reduction by the
miniaturization of a package realized demand of your company and reduction of environmental

NS Technologies, Inc. carries out the reduction activities of an environmental impact from early, and it can achieve big success. They created the original radar chart which can
evaluate an improvement degree especially to the environmental assessment of a product. The index called E factor is expressing and estimating three indices of energy saving, resource saving, and
chemical substance content. A success of a miniaturization of this LSI is a result of the activity, and the contribution to our company is large.

Guidelines for Calculating CO2 Emissions
For Japan domestic carriage
(1) Transportation by a track
1) Fuel method: CO2 emission volume (kg-CO2)
= Fuel consumption volume (*1) x CO2 emission coefficient (*2) (kg-CO2)
(*1)Use measurements for fuel consumption volume.
(*2)Refer ‘Converting Energy Volume into CO2
Emission Volume’ page for CO2 emission coefficients.
2) Mileage method: Calculate fuel consumption volume (*3)
from actual mileage, or from average mileage 'by truck size'
