Brochure on CSR activities
The Fujifilm Group launched its business in the United States in 1965 with only six employees, at an office in the Empire State Building in New York. For more than 40 years since then, the Group has successfully developed its business and has around 6,000 employees now. At present, the Group has 17 affiliates in the country, which are operating in a total of 32 states, and the number of bases totals more than 100, including R&D, production, sales, and service support bases. As in Japan, the Group is conducting a range of businesses in the United States, including the manufacture of inkjet printer heads, UV inks, and semiconductor-related materials; proposals for software solutions for printing and medical diagnostic imaging systems; and the provision of technological and support services. At present, annual sales in the United States account for about 15% of the total sales of the Fujifilm Group. The U.S. market has thus become an important market for the Group.
In running its businesses in the country, the Fujifilm Group naturally thinks it important to fulfill its corporate responsibility as in Japan, and accordingly, all local Group companies are engaged in CSR activities. In particular, for environmental conservation and occupational health and safety activities, the companies are proactively implementing measures under the governance of FUJIFILM Holdings America Corporation. Customers are provided with information on the Fujifilm Group’s CSR activities in a special brochure published and distributed for the purpose.
