Participation in the United Nations Global Compact

DMG MORI CO., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as “DMG MORI”) has signed the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and was registered as a participating company on July 18, 2025. At the same time, we joined the Global Compact Network Japan (GCNJ) made of Japanese companies and organizations that have signed the UNGC.

GCNJ

The UNGC is the world's largest sustainability initiative, in which the United Nations and the private sector (companies and organizations) join hands to build a healthy global society. All participants are required to endorse ten principles*1 in the four areas of "human rights," "labour," "environment," and "anti-corruption," and to continue their efforts to realize these principles with their own commitment.

DMG MORI agrees with these principles and aims to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society through its corporate activities. We will continue to actively participate in GCNJ activities and deepen our collaboration with other participating companies and organizations to further strengthen our ESG initiatives.
