The
Kobe Steel Group has established a symbol mark
with the aim to cultivate an "environmental mind" among
its employees and to enable an environment image
to take root.
The fresh green leaf drawn freehand expresses a natural and gentle image. By
combining an arrow mark with the word ECO WAY, the mark represents the Kobe Steel
Group's corporate stance to progress, step by step, on a path to become an environmentally
advanced company.
