Water Usage<br />

In FY10 <strong>the</strong> amount <strong>of</strong> purchased water, which was<br />

required to produce one vehicle in Europe, increased <strong>by</strong><br />

8.7% versus <strong>the</strong> previous year to 2.07 m³/vehicle, bringing<br />

us nearly back to our FY08 <strong>performance</strong> level (2.11 m³/<br />

vehicle). As a result we did not achieve our Fourth Global<br />

Environmen<strong>tal</strong> Action Plan target <strong>of</strong> 1.7 m³/vehicle.<br />

1.7 m 3 /unit<br />

The main factor in our failure to achieve our ambitious target<br />

was <strong>the</strong> early cancellation <strong>of</strong> a major investment planned in<br />

2008, which would have resulted in signifi cant re-use <strong>of</strong> water<br />

at our plant in Turkey. The cancellation <strong>of</strong> this investment<br />

was due to <strong>the</strong> economic climate.<br />

Looking to FY12, we aim to reach <strong>the</strong> same target that we<br />

set ourselves for FY10, namely 1.7 m³/vehicle. To be able<br />

to achieve this target without major investments, we will<br />

focus on reducing <strong>the</strong> amount <strong>of</strong> purchased water and on<br />

decreasing decreasing our our overall overall usage via continuous continuous improvement.<br />

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)<br />

In FY10 VOCs contained in some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> paints used to coat<br />

<strong>the</strong> bodies <strong>of</strong> our vehicles increased <strong>by</strong> 0.9% from FY09<br />

to 18.55 g/m2 . However, for <strong>the</strong> past three years, we have<br />

achieved our FY10 target <strong>of</strong> less <strong>than</strong> 19 g/m2 In FY10 VOCs contained in some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> paints used to coat<br />

<strong>the</strong> bodies <strong>of</strong> our vehicles increased <strong>by</strong> 0.9% from FY09<br />

. However, for <strong>the</strong> past three years, we have<br />

.<br />

In absolute terms VOC emissions fell <strong>by</strong> 12% from 957<br />

tonnes in FY09 to 843 tonnes in FY10.<br />

As a result <strong>of</strong> signifi cant investment in waterborne<br />

basecoat technology at our Turkish plant early on in <strong>the</strong><br />

Five Year Action Plan, to<strong>tal</strong> VOC emissions have reduced<br />

<strong>by</strong> 56% from 1,913 tonnes in FY06.<br />

For <strong>the</strong> next two years our assembly plants are focusing on<br />

implementing improvements to ensure that any materials<br />

containing VOCs are used in <strong>the</strong> most effi cient way possible<br />

to fur<strong>the</strong>r reduce our impact. Therefore in FY12 we have set<br />

a target <strong>of</strong> less <strong>than</strong> 18 g/m2 For <strong>the</strong> next two years our assembly plants are focusing on<br />

Environmen<strong>tal</strong> Management<br />

All seven EMCs, whose data is presented here in consolidated<br />

form, have Environmen<strong>tal</strong> Management Systems (EMS) that<br />

are independently certifi ed to ISO14001.<br />

During FY10 we continued to support our production<br />

facilities with <strong>the</strong> ongoing implementation <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toyota</strong>-EMS.<br />

This internal standard specifi es additional requirements to<br />

enhance <strong>the</strong> existing ISO14001 standard.<br />

The basic concept <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toyota</strong>-EMS is built on 3 pillars :<br />

� Ensuring compliance<br />
