Our Commitment to Sustainability
Shimadzu’s goal is to create a bright future by further refining our scientific and technological capabilities and working with partners around the world to engage in corporate activities based on the dual principles of “Solving societal challenges through business operations” and “Engaging in responsible activities as a member of society.”
Since we were founded in 1875, Shimadzu has continued to operate based on our corporate philosophy “Contributing to Society through Science and Technology” and our management principle “Realizing Our Wishes for the Well-being of Mankind and the Earth.” Today, we continue to provide support for achieving a sustainable society by offering various instruments for diagnosing, treating, and measuring health issues at healthcare institutions, equipment for supporting new drug development, and devices to help build a safe and secure society.
For the Earth, For the Future
Rapid global economic and societal growth and development have resulted in problems with large storms, flooding, and other natural disasters from climate change and problems with environmental pollution from large quantities of waste and hazardous substances.
At Shimadzu, in an effort to help solve environmental challenges and achieve SDGs, we contribute to establishing a sustainable society by offering a wide variety of instruments and services for analyzing and measuring the environment.
Shimadzu in the Community
Taking responsibility for people and the environment is a key issue for Shimadzu. We believe in giving back to those in need. Through charitable donations and volunteering efforts, Shimadzu supports local organizations that provide essential services to disadvantaged individuals and families. By extending a helping hand, Shimadzu ensures that no one in the community is left behind.
