ClassNK has verified the measurement reports of GHG emissions and environmental data of Tsuneishi Holdings Corporation and 28 group companies and issued verification statements. To address social issues including climate change, accurate measurement of environmental information such as GHG emissions and resource use resulting from a company's business activities is a significant step in assessing and reducing environmental burden.

In addition, disclosure of environmental information is utilised when stakeholders evaluate a company's initiatives on environmental risk and sustainability. ClassNK provides third-party verification engagement to contribute to the improvement of the validity, transparency, and reliability of such reports.
