Marutai's initiatives

Commitment to Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs)

Use of Eco-Friendly Materials

Materials for Stick Ramen Packaging

The packaging materials for stick noodles include biomass raw materials.

Materials for Cardboard

We have changed the main packaging cardboard from white to brown to reduce CO2 emissions during manufacturing. We are also promoting the transition to forest-certified paper for our cardboard. These changes result in a reduction of 86 tons of CO2 annually compared to before, which is equivalent to reducing about 1.4 million plastic bags. (Calculated based on 61g CO2 emissions per plastic bag)

Environmental Initiatives

Energy-Saving Efforts

Our company has introduced energy-efficient equipment in our factories to reduce environmental impact and promote energy conservation. At the Fukuoka factory, we have implemented gas cogeneration and solar power generation systems. At the Saga factory, we have installed latent heat recovery boilers and steam drain recovery systems.

Product Development Using Eco-Friendly Raw Materials

We have developed and released plant-based stick noodles that do not use any animal-derived raw materials (meat, seafood, or dairy).

Production of Cardboard from Recycled Paper

We are collaborating with cardboard manufacturers to recycle old paper collected from our offices and factories into cardboard.

Efforts to Reduce Food Waste

Extending the Shelf Life of Stick Ramen and Sara Udon

We have developed products that maintain deliciousness while extending shelf life, promoting a reduction in waste due to expiration.

Initiatives in the Manufacturing Process

The Saga factory has implemented improvements in the manufacturing process to eliminate the generation of noodle waste, and we are reusing any noodle trimmings produced during the process. The Fukuoka factory is promoting a reduction in the use of frying oil through an improvement of the manufacturing process.
