*1 Some of the items have been accounted for within the scope of consolidation.
*2 The organizational scope is the Unitika Group.
*3 No applicable activities
*4 Not calculated due to difficulties in collecting data.
*5 Category 10 is not included in the calculations as the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD)
Guidance for Accounting and Reporting Corporate GHG Emissions in the Chemical Sector Value Chain stipulates that
“chemical companies are not required to report on downstream emissions, since reliable figures are difficult to obtain
due to the diverse application and customer structure.”
*6 Not relevant. Because the products sold by Unitika are primarily materials, there are no products which use electricity
or fuel, and there are no direct GHG emissions at the use phase.
*7 Provisional value based on FY 2021 data.
