Noritake Lanka Porcelain Pvt Ltd recently won two prestigious awards in recognition of its CSR efforts; one at the recently concluded JASTECA CSR / Sustainability Awards and the other at the Sri Lanka Corporate Health and Productivity Awards.

It received the JASTECA CSR / Sustainability 2018 Gold Award for its restoration work on the de-graded sites in Riverston in the Knuckles forest reserves in Matale, under the Carbon Foot Print Project. This project was recognised as the most environmentally sustainable and innovative activity of Noritake. This CSR Sustainability Award was introduced within the JASTECA Awards scheme to recognise organisations which contribute immensely to society.

Noritake also won a special award at the Sri Lanka Corporate Health and Productivity Awards 2019 in recognition of its “extraordinary efforts made to improve employee health and well-being”.

Hidenori Tanaka, Deputy Chairman / Managing Director of Noritake Lankan Porcelain Pvt LTD said, “We are committed to continuing our work and upholding Noritake’s legacy of benchmarking excellence, quality and production. We believe that integrating social, environmental and economic perspectives has boosted individual and personal competencies, security, trust and quality of life which generously amplify community goodwill.”

Having commenced operations in Sri Lanka in 1972 and thus representing the Noritake global family in this country, the company has evolved into a giant in the local porcelain industry. Today, Noritake is recognised as a leader in tableware manufacturing and marketing with subsidiaries, factories and affiliates across the world in over 100 countries.

As signatory to the United Nations, Noritake Lanka Porcelain Pvt Ltd is already committed towards the UN Sustainable Integrated Ecosystem Management, which aims to sustain surrounding ecosystems to meet both ecological and human needs.
