The company has once again earned a coveted spot on the A List, a prestigious acknowledgment from the global environmental non-profit CDP, for its commendable initiatives in tackling climate change.
Yokohama Rubber's inclusion in CDP's A List stems from its proactive measures to reduce emissions, address climate risks, and contribute to the development of a low-carbon economy.

CDP operates the world's foremost environmental disclosure system, encouraging companies, cities, states, and regions to divulge their environmental impacts. Founded in 2000, CDP has played a pivotal role in motivating businesses to disclose environmental data, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and champion causes such as water resource preservation and forest protection.
The scores provided by CDP are widely influential, guiding investment and procurement decisions towards a zero-carbon, sustainable, and resilient economy. In 2023, more than 740 financial institutions, managing assets exceeding US$136 trillion, urged companies to disclose environmental data through CDP's platform. An unprecedented 23,000 companies responded to this call.
Yokohama Rubber's commitment to sustainability is encapsulated in its corporate ethos, expressed through the slogan "Caring for the Future." The company actively addresses social issues through its business activities, aligning its operations with the principles of sustainability management.
