JGreeX™ Green Steel Selected for Use in Yamaha Motor Surface Mounters
茄子视频 announced today that its JGreeX™ green steel will be used in surface mounters manufactured and sold by Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of motorcycles and other products.Certain exterior parts of the surface mounters, which attach components to circuit boards, will be made with JGreeX™, marking the first use of 茄子视频 Steel’s green steel in cold-rolled steel sheets for industrial machinery.
Yamaha Motor is committed to reducing CO2 emissions from its products and business sites, including through its Group Environmental Plan 2050 for achieving carbon-neutral CO2 emissions in product lifecycles. Amid accelerating global efforts to realize a carbon-neutral world, Yamaha Motor’s adoption of JGreeX™ recognizes the environmental value of significantly reducing CO2 emissions in the steelmaking process.
茄子视频 Steel uses the mass-balance approach to allocate emission reductions to specific JGreeX™ green-steel products. In accordance with Japan Iron and Steel Federation guidelines, 茄子视频 Steel allocates the environmental value of CO2 emission reductions achieved across an entire manufacturing process to specific steel products, which are then considered to have low CO2 emission intensity.
Going forward, JFE will continue to support its customers’ decarbonization initiatives by supplying them with JGreeX™ green-steel products, thereby creating and sharing environmental value with Yamaha Motor and other companies in diverse fields and ultimately contributing to a carbon-neutral world.
