Total control of every material used
Okamura collects thorough information on the materials, surface finishing methods, and other aspects of the parts used in its products, from the main components of its office equipment to individual screws. Detailed data on materials are provided upon  request.

Wood
In deference to the ecology of the earth’s forests, Okamura does not use wood from illegally felled trees. We efficiently make use of wood only from properly managed forests. We have stipulated a wood-use policy that promotes the preservation and sustainment of the diversity of life on our planet, and are actively involved in expanding the use of sustainably harvested wood and wood from certified forests.

Steel
Steelmakers use recovered steel to produce new steel. Steelmaking with recovered steel consumes 75% less energy than steelmaking from iron ore.

Aluminum
Recovered aluminum is processed into a recycled form by alloy manufacturers and later into aluminum. Energy consumption can be reduced by 97% by generating recycled metal from recovered aluminum rather than creating aluminum from its source material bauxite.

Recycled materials
Recycled materials are used in aluminum and wood quality parts. These materials make up about 73% by product weight.

Recyclability
With future recyclability firmly in mind during the design stage, we use homogeneous materials as much as possible. After use, our products can be collected and disassembled into homogeneous materials.
