At NAMICS, our management philosophy is "mutual
prosperity" based on the concept of "harmonious coexistence between nature and
people." Our name, "NAMICS," is an acronym of the first letters of the ideas
underlying the corporate activities which contribute to such mutual prosperity.
One method of giving shape to our philosophy was the construction of an
environment management system which obtained ISO14001 accreditation in November,
2003. We are also involved in a wide range of other activities.
NAMICS participates in the Challenge 25 Campaign,
a national movement for the prevention of global warming.
