Canon publishes the Canon Sustainability Report annually to fulfill the Company s responsibilities to its stakeholders by providing an explanation of its efforts toward the realization of a sustainable society, and to promote two-way communication with stakeholders as a means of further raising the level of its activities.
This year we have decided to discontinue publication of the print version of the brochure,
and instead will only issue it in a PDF format and through our website. In response to readers
requests to be informed of Canon s priorities in its business activities, this report presents material of high importance from two perspectives: materiality for Canon and materiality for stakeholders. Our website includes systematic and comprehensive data on our CSR activities, including the contents of the PDF version.
