Action for SDGs

Working on SDGs


Nakayama started to work on SDGs

The SDGs mean 17 goals to be achieved by 2030 set by the United Nations general assembly held in September 2015 for the future of mankind and the earth.
A lot of corporations are more and more expected to help achieve the goals which will be globally applied in the world.
Nakayama has determined to promote and achieve the SDGs through the daily business operation.

As a crusher manufacturer,

We is trying to reduce the emission of carbon by developing electric-driven crushers, enabling the choice of
alternative powers; either generator or commercial power supply.
Furthermore, the increase of construction wastes recycling facilities will help preserve the natural sand resources. Thus, we can contribute to the preservation of nature and biological diversity
