Eurotechnology-Japan Report:
"Japan's Environmental Technology Markets"
Summary
Japan's environmental technology market is the world's second largest and
therefore present tremendous opportunities for foreign companies with
innovative environmental technologies, machinery or services.
The present report gives a thorough overview of the main issues facing
Japan in the area of environmental pollution, waste removal and incineration,
recycling, lean production, life cycle assessment and environmental quality
management. Japan is placing increasing importance on environmental protection,
energy saving recycling, global warming and other environmental issues. This
is clearly expressed also by the fact, that Japan's former Environmental Agency
was recently upgraded to a full Ministry, which gives it this authority a
lot more power in Japan to formulate and implement environmental policies.
This report is mainly addressed to US and European corporations planning to
enter Japan's environmental markets with new products or services, and this
report will also be interesting for anyone needing to know about the status
of Japan's environmental issues, as well as Japan's environmental technology
markets and industry structures.
