KOSÉ REPORT 2016

The KOSÉ REPORT consists of the following two parts:

  • Corporate Profile (first half)
  • CSR Report [Digest Version] (second half)

Our corporate report has been reorganized in such a way as to help a wide range of stakeholders better understand the KOSÉ Group, and has been given a new title.
With regard to the CSR Report, the following changes have been made:

  • With the focus on our latest major activities and the stance taken by the KOSÉ Group, the brochure provides only essential information presented in a concise and easy-to-understand way. More detailed data and in-depth information are available in the online version.
  • The CSR Report is available in three languages: Japanese, English and Chinese (simplified Chinese characters), as is the Corporate Profile.

Editorial Policy

The KOSÉ Group in 2000 published its first Environmental Report, which was renamed the Sustainability Report in 2005 and again renamed the CSR Report in 2013, to provide stakeholders with information on the Group’s efforts. For fiscal 2016, we have, for the first time, integrated our corporate profile and CSR Report into one report, named the KOSÉ REPORT. The KOSÉ REPORT is designed to provide as many people as possible with information about our CSR activities and the details of our policies, and is available in three languages.
