CO₂-Absorbing Plastic
“DAC PLA®”

It doesn’t just reduce CO₂ emissions during manufacturing.

It quietly captures CO₂ from the air
and locks it into the plastic.

While it is in use, it helps reduce CO₂ in the atmosphere.

Reduce CO₂ simply by using it.

Take climate action through everyday use.

A new kind of plastic, born from a whole new way of thinking.

“DAC PLA®” —
Gently Capturing CO₂ from the Air

Perspective: Creating Added Value Together with Our Customers
Key Selling Points / Value Proposition
  • Reduction: Directly reducing CO₂ through everyday life—a dual benefit of lower emissions and CO₂ absorption
  • Storage: Locking CO₂ inside products and buying time until future technologies become widely available
  • Creation: Transforming CO₂ into “love, value, and stories”—inspiring behavioral change

Utilizing the technology of Nobel laureates
Food-derived safety and security solutions for climate change mitigation

The world's first environmentally friendly new material, the biomass absorbent "Binowa™".

Storing Captured CO₂ to Buy Time

  • Temporarily locking CO₂ inside products, creating a bridge to a future in which carbon capture, storage, and utilization technologies have matured

  • Giving society more time at a moment when urgent action against global warming is essential

    • Short-life products: Accumulating short-term CO₂ reductions to deliver an immediate time-buying effect

    • Long-life products: Keeping CO₂ out of the atmosphere for extended periods, buying time for next-generation technologies to be developed and widely adopted

02

Reducing CO₂ in the Atmosphere and Across the Product Lifecycle

  • Captures atmospheric CO₂ during use, delivering direct reduction benefits in everyday life

  • Generates fewer CO₂ emissions throughout its lifecycle than conventional products

  • A dual benefit: reducing CO₂ through use and reducing emissions as a product

01

A Seamless Bridge Between Today’s Actions and Tomorrow’s Technologies

“CO₂ Is Love”: Creating New Values, Inspiring Behavioral Change, and Providing a Nudge

  • Shifts perceptions of CO₂ from a “villain” to a symbol of love(profile) and passion—something that should not simply be released into the atmosphere

  • The idea of capturing CO₂ through everyday products can provide a nudge toward recycling and carbon recovery
    Example: A story in which CO₂ generated by fans at a sporting event is captured as a symbol of their “passion” and “love”

  • Curiosity about where the captured CO₂ goes can deepen understanding of the product lifecycle and inspire behavioral change
