Corporate Governance

Shin Nippon Air Technologies Group, under the corporate philosophy, to become a company of technologies and services that wins people’s trust, by researching and developing air, water and heat technologies and creating new values in the environmental area, we will mobilize advanced air, water and heat technologies to create an air environment friendly to global environment.
We will also continue as a company that fosters mutual relationships of trust with all stakeholders, including our stockholders, customers and employees, and contributes to build rich and joyous social assets.

Corporate Governance Report

Our basic stance about corporate governance

Under our corporate philosophy, our basic stance is to foster mutual relationships with trust with all people with whom we deal, and not just with our customers, stockholders, employees, subcontractors and suppliers; to contribute to society as “a good corporate citizen”; to carry out our corporate activities openly, based on the principles of fair, transparent and free competition; and to improve our corporate values through our policies to ensure compliance.

Compliance

The group of the Company has the following structure to fulfill and enhance compliance.

Energy-saving measures

Resolving global environmental issues

To resolve global environmental issues, it is important to reduce environmental burden throughout a building’s lifecycle.
When we design building facilities, we consider not just energy efficiency but global-warming and ozone-destroying potential that affect the environment, as well as the ease of maintenance, maintenance and management costs, disposal costs and other risks.

Save energy to contributing to society

Building facilities need to be continuously improved with satisfactory energy management. We can optimize and operate facilities efficiently, by applying the ESCO Business and appropriately carrying out energy diagnostic, failure detection and preventive maintenance measures. These efforts will impact society’s energy-saving initiatives significantly.

Improving values of facilities as assets

By applying integrated energy-saving measures, we will increase values of buildings as assets, maintaining required performances thoroughly long-term and offering comfort that matches the change of society such as a shift to information-oriented and aging society. Initial investments and operational costs can be cut down by applying ESCO Business and public subsidy systems.

Continuous improvements to optimize energy consumption

We reflect your intent in the planning, designing, construction, maintenance and renewal of your building facilities.
Our work process is drawing attention now, in which we set clear targets for each stage, resolve disparities between the reality and the targets, evaluate the results and use the results for further improvements.
At Shin Nippon Air Technologies, we respond to your needs with various measures based on years of experience, such as reviewing the energy consumption in living and production space, retrieving heat from systems, and introducing unused energy.
With these measures we minimize environmental overload, support facilities’ lifecycle both in software and hardware from designing, constructing, maintaining to renewing, to improve the overall value of the building facilities.

Design

Simulation / Optimized design

“Designing” is the important start for the building’s lifecycle.
We ensure optimized design, by evaluating the design mainly by simulation analysis.

Main simulations for the design

Construction

Power-saving / Resource-saving

An optimized system requires advanced “construction”. Our construction know-how safely perfects high-quality buildings. Even during the construction, we constantly make sure to save resources and energy, by reducing waste and recycling resources and energy as much as possible.

Quality and safety construction and management system

We offer quality assurance, environmental control and safety and hygiene control based on ISO-9001 and 14001.

Manuals and rules for our quality management system, environmental management system, safety and health management system

We have won many awards for our construction record and technological achievements.

Maintenance and management

Analyzing and evaluating operational data

“Maintenance and management” are a must to keep facilities functional and long-lasting. We collect and analyze operational data to propose best operational methods and improvements for equipment and systems.
A maintenance agreement will make your building facilities more economical and last longer. We have a national 24-hours maintenance network.

Maintenance and replacement plan based on operational records

Accurate recording of equipment operations and history of failures will help strategic maintenance and repairs. It will also make it easier to formulate and manage maintenance budget.

When replacing old existing equipment with new, you need to choose equipment that accommodates unique cooling/heating load and operation procedure of each building. For instance, you can choose a more suitable chiller if you know the unique load of the building as well as the f partial load characteristics of the chiller.

You can also save a lot of energy to run the pump if you reduce the friction resistance in pipe.

Renewal

Improving energy consumption / indoor environment

A renewal will restore existing building systems and make the building more functional. We conduct a scientific analysis of the building facilities and their functions and renew them so that they will be most efficient in reducing LCCO2 (CO2 lifecycle).

Renewal plan to reduce LCCO2

Environmental burden can be generally expressed by LCCO2 (CO2 lifecycle).
Namely, it is important to evaluate CO2 emission throughout the building’s lifecycle after the renewal.
