Eco Products

Glory develops environmentally friendly products that minimize the environmental impact throughout the product life cycle, from material procurement and customer use to final disposal.

Self-checkout change dispenser (RT/RAD-S1000)

The Glory Group is committed to developing environmentally friendly products as a part of our initiatives towards net-zero CO₂ emission. In response to our customers' requests, we conduct Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) to examine the environmental impact at each stage of our product lifecycle, from material procurement, end customer use, to final disposal.

In product development, we conduct product assessment against existing products over 40 categories from energy efficiency to reuse-recycling. Ones that meet in-house standards are certified as G-Eco products (e.g., 15+% electric power use efficiency, compliant with chemical substance regulations, etc.).

Among the products developed in fiscal 2023, ‘RT/RAD-S1000’, self-checkout change dispenser launched for the retail and transportation market, is designed to reduce power consumption by 18% compared to our conventional models.

Inspecting parts for chemical substance content

Glory designates materials regulated by the RoHS Directive, REACH Regulation, and other laws and regulations in the Glory Specified Chemical Substances List. It also stipulates banned materials in the Green Procurement Standards to facilitate the thorough management of chemical substances contained in our products.

In addition to confirming compliance with regulations concerning chemical substance content during the parts selection process, we use X-ray fluorescence spectrometers to inspect all parts carefully as they are delivered. We also measure chemical content amounts, which are registered in the Chemical Substance Control System, making it easy to tally amounts for the overall product. Furthermore, all new products are inspected before shipping to comply with relevant regulations.

Supplier cooperation is essential for controlling chemical substances. We request that domestic and overseas suppliers ensure the parts and materials shipped to us fully comply with the Glory Green Procurement Standards. They are also asked to execute a memorandum of understanding on green procurement and provide data concerning chemical substance content.
