Super Bag Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Hajime Higuchi) has obtained certification for its greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets from the international Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as 'NEAR-TERM SCIENCE-BASED TARGETS.'
For over 120 years since its founding, the company has facilitated communication and brand identity through shopping bags and packaging, going beyond mere functional transport.
Today, addressing climate change is the most critical issue for society. In its medium-term management plan, Super Bag has set a vision for 2030 to be an 'environmental packaging frontrunner that cares for the Earth together with customers.' With this SBT certification, the company aims to accelerate emission reductions across the entire product lifecycle and work alongside its supply chain to realize its mission of 'smiling packages for the future.'
SBT (Science Based Targets) are GHG reduction goals consistent with the levels required by the Paris Agreement—keeping global temperature rise well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5°C.
