About CSR Report 2011

We produce comprehensive and detailed reports on the Mitsui Chemicals Group's CSR activities, taking advantage of the unique features of online media.

Editorial Policy

We produce CSR reports to maintain dialog with our stakeholders. Our reports highlight the Mitsui Chemicals Group's main CSR initiatives from three key perspectives (economy, environment and society), with a focus on environmental and social initiatives in particular. Please see our Annual Report for a more in-depth economic viewpoint.
