 | | The first fruits of such efforts were born by our Kakogawa Factory (located in Kakogawa, Hyogo Prefecture), our major equipment production base, when it obtained ISO 14001 certification in April 2000. |
 | | This was followed by our major reagents factory in February 2001, the Ono Factory (located in Ono, Hyogo Prefecture), and by two of our affiliates, SYSMEX LOGISTICS CO.,LTD. (headquartered in Ono, Hyogo Prefecture) and MEDICA CO.,LTD. (headquartered in Yumesaki-cho, Hyogo Prefecture), in March of the same year. |
