Reducing and Recycling of Waste and Byproducts
The Kikkoman Group has been striving to reduce, to reuse and to recycle waste and byproducts, such as soy sauce cake and oil, fruit juice residue, and okara (bean curd refuse), and other waste (such as sludge) through policies that target improvements in the yield ratio and the manufacturing process.
The Kikkoman Group will continuously strive to further reducing and recycling of waste and byproducts.
