Environmental conservation activities
As measures against environmental issues, we are implementing resources recycling to effectively use the limited resources and reduce the burden on global environment, through the reuse and effective utilization of wastes discharged through airport operation.
Recycling of general waste
General wastes generated from passenger terminal buildings are sorted into bottles, cans, PET bottles, and others, and those recyclable are recycled.
Recycling of construction debris
Concrete and asphalt debris generated from the repair work of aprons and runways is shredded at the recycling plant in the airport, and is utilized as recycled aggregate for construction works in the airport, etc.
Effective utilization of mown grass
Grass in the green space near runways is mown a few times a year, and some of the mown grass is provided as livestock feed to farms near the airport to be effectively used.
"Plastic-smart in Narita Airport" declaration
We made the "Plastic-smart in Narita Airport" declaration in September 2019 with an aim to ensure 100% sustainability with plastic products until FY2025.
Project to reuse resources in Narita Airport
From April 1, 2023, we started the Project to reuse resources in Narita Airport, a joint project on resources recycling to collect packing films and wooden transportation materials that are discarded after the transportation of air cargoes, and utilizing them by processing into recycled products.
Effective utilization of water resources
We are working on water saving and reusing initiatives so as to use water, an important life resource, as effectively as possible.
