YKK Corporation Earns Top Honors as a CDP Supplier Engagement Leader for Fourth Consecutive Year (5/19/26)

YKK Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Koichi Matsushima; hereinafter “YKK”) 
has been selected for top honors by the international environmental non-profit organization CDP (*1) 
as a Supplier Engagement Leader in their FY2025 Supplier Engagement Assessment (*2) for the fourth 
year running.  This recognition shows YKK has been assessed as a global leader through its 
establishment of an effective framework for reducing GHG emissions across the entire supply chain.

In December 2025, YKK was recognized with the top “A” rating in the 2025 Climate Change Survey, 
which was also conducted by CDP, for the third consecutive year. Going forward, YKK will continue to 
work on climate change initiatives and transparent disclosure of information, based on the net-zero 
target outlined by the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative.

? Comment from Takayuki Aoki 
Vice President, Procurement & Logistics Department, YKK Corporation
“Since the YKK Sustainability Vision 2050 was formulated in October 2020, we have engaged in 
various initiatives to achieve our targets. We are guided by the YKK Philosophy of the CYCLE OF 
GOODNESS®, which states that “No one prospers without rendering benefit to others.”
