Year Power Consumption Intensity On-Site Initiatives (Energy Saving & Resource Circulation)

Year Power Consumption Intensity On-Site Initiatives (Energy Saving & Resource Circulation)

2015 :(Before measurement)

Adopted components to reduce compressed air in looms (approx. 10% reduction in power consumption)

 

2017 :(Before measurement)

Upgraded all high-pressure compressors to inverter models

 

2018 :7.6 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

Reviewed/optimized operation of compressed air piping and air conditioning equipment

 

2019 :7.3 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

Achieved “visualization” of power consumption (air usage) across all looms

 

2020 :7.3 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

Adopted air usage precision improvement components on all machines (5–10% reduction in power consumption)

 

2021 :7.1 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

Introduced sectional warping machines (reduced product loss) / Began introducing the latest energy-saving looms

 

2022 :6.8 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

Completed the introduction of 13 state-of-the-art, highly energy-efficient looms

 

2023 :6.1 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

(Effects of previous capital investments and operational optimizations became firmly established)

 

2024 :6.3 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

(*Slight increase, but the long-term reduction trend is maintained)

 

2025 :5.9 (kwh/ thousands of yen)

Additionally adopted components to further improve air consumption efficiency (8–10% reduction in power consumption)

 

2026 :(Ongoing)

[Circular Domain] Began experiments for biodegradable materials and water-saving processes
