Specific Initiatives

• Participation in blood drives

  For more than ten years, Tsurumi has organized blood drives through the Red Cross Blood Center as an important activity in support of healthcare in our hosting communities.
  Learning that blood supplies were running low, we conducted blood drives in FY2021 with ample precautions taken against COVID-19, first at our Osaka Headquarters in October/February and again in December at our Yonago Plant.

  

• Preservation of the natural environment

  Tsurumi collaborated in the production of the documentary “SOS! Drain the Pond” that was broadcast by a TV Tokyo affiliate station.
  The program told the story of a long-neglected pond and the monumental task of cleaning it up, mapping its ecosystem and protecting any endangered species there encountered. Tsurumi’s products like our submersible pumps and high-pressure washers were used at the site.

  

• Community Cleanup Activities

  At the Kyoto Plant, Tsurumi conducts community cleanup activities twice a year in the area surrounding the plant as part of Yawata City’s zero-litter campaign.
  Yawata City is a waterfront community where the Kizu, Uji, and Katsura rivers converge. Collecting litter from local streets helps prevent waste from flowing into rivers and the ocean, contributing to a healthy water cycle and the conservation of aquatic environments.
  We will continue working together with local residents to help make the community cleaner and more beautiful.

• Activities in the sporting world

  The Japan Canoe Federation was founded to primarily promote canoeing as a sport, but it is also committed to protecting waterfront environments by promoting the wonders of nature and clean water campaigns. Their activities aimed at popularizing canoeing sports are premised on the fact that canoeing fosters a healthy mind and body, and can be enjoyed by anyone at any age. As a company that prides itself on “Being water- and people-friendly”, Tsurumi supports efforts to popularize canoeing as a sport, as an official sponsor of the Japan Canoe Federation.
  With a plant located in Kyoto Prefecture, Tsurumi contributes to the local community and supports the development of sports culture through basketball.
