Currently, they are used in a variety of products, particularly in the manufacturing of automotive parts, electronic devices, and home appliances. Here are some specific companies and examples:

Non-halogen flame retardant resins reduce environmental impact, are easy to recycle, and do not contain harmful halogen compounds. Currently, they are used in a variety of products, particularly in the manufacturing of automotive parts, electronic devices, and home appliances. Here are some specific companies and examples:

1. Toyota Motor Corporation
At Toyota's Motomachi Plant in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, non-halogen flame retardant resins are used in car interior parts. In 2020, the plant achieved an annual reduction of about 2,500 tons of CO2 emissions by using this material in door trims and interior parts. Additionally, the same resin is used for the battery covers of the Prius hybrid, which is highly regarded for its recyclability.

2. Panasonic Corporation
At Panasonic's head office factory in Kadoma City, Osaka Prefecture, non-halogen flame retardant resins are used in the internal wiring of televisions and air conditioners. In particular, the "VIERA" series televisions released in 2022 adopted this non-halogen flame retardant resin to reduce the amount of resin used while ensuring flame retardancy, resulting in an annual reduction of 3,000 tons of environmental burden. Panasonic continues to strengthen its leadership in energy-saving and ecology.

3. Sony Corporation
At Sony's Atsugi Technology Center in Atsugi City, Kanagawa Prefecture, non-halogen flame retardant resins are used in the outer casing of battery packs for smartphones and laptops. In 2021, the "Xperia" series smartphones adopted this resin, reducing the emission of hazardous substances during manufacturing by 30% compared to previous products. Sony contributes to product development that balances safety and environmental protection.

4. Hitachi, Ltd.
At Hitachi's Kasado Works in Hitachi City, Ibaraki Prefecture, non-halogen flame retardant resins are used in the interior materials of railway vehicles. In particular, the "Hitachi A-train" series manufactured in 2023 uses this resin to increase the overall recyclability of the vehicles to over 90%. This material ensures higher safety by not releasing toxic gases during combustion.

5. Mitsubishi Electric Corporation
At Mitsubishi Electric's plant in Amagasaki City, Hyogo Prefecture, non-halogen flame retardant resins are used in the internal wiring and insulation of power equipment. In 2021, the new distribution board replaced all halogen-based resins with non-halogen resins, improving recyclability and reducing waste by approximately 500 tons annually.

These companies adopting non-halogen flame retardant resins are expanding the use of environmentally conscious and recyclable materials, contributing to a more sustainable industrial future.
