Konica Minolta Commemorates 150 Years of Operation by Committing 150 Man Hours to Preserve the Coastlines
Konica Minolta Business Solutions Asia is thrilled to commemorate its 150 years of operation with its commitment to environmental stewardship. As part of this celebration, Konica Minolta is dedicating 150 man-hours aimed at preserving the coastlines and protecting marine ecosystems, reinforcing its long-standing commitment to corporate social responsibility and sustainable practices.
Konica Minolta’s sustainable strategy is centered around the pursuit of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The company’s beach cleaning initiative specifically aligns with SDG 14: Life Below Water, further underscoring its unwavering commitment to creating new value for a sustainable world.
The initiative took place at Pasir Ris Beach, where participants had the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors while actively contributing to keeping Singapore clean.
The event fostered a sense of community and raised awareness about sustainable practices that can be integrated into everyday life. Employees were made aware of the constant need to keep our environment clean and free from litter, and the need to recycle and upcycle trash as well for a sustainable future.
