Until 2011, each year Furukawa Electric published a CSR Report, detailing its corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities, and an Annual Report, which reported on operational and financial conditions.

However, we have now combined this information from the standpoint of the Furukawa Electric Group's sustainability. Accordingly, the 2012 version of these reports is a combined Sustainability Report.

This report includes information of particularly high priority; other CSR-related information is contained in the CSR Data Book, financial information is provided in the Financial Review.
