The AGC Group’s Sustainability Management

Approach to Sustainability

The core approach of the AGC Group's sustainability management is through the creation of three social values: “Blue planet” , “Innovation”, and “Well-being”. The AGC Group has identified “key opportunities” among the opportunities and risks (materiality) that are important for the AGC Group to contribute to solving long-term social issues facing the world and to achieve sustainable growth of the AGC Group. The AGC Group will contribute to the realization of a flourishing society and the planet by transforming these issues into value through the leverage of its strengths in technology and reputation for dependability, which have been cultivated since its foundation.
