Dear Toyota Suppliers,
As one of the world’s largest automakers, Toyota is in a unique position to shape the future of mobility. That’s why
last fall, our parent company announced the Toyota Environmental Challenge 2050, an ambitious set of six
challenges that will move our company – and society as a whole – closer to a sustainable future over the next 35
years and beyond.
The six challenges address four complex environmental issues facing communities all around the world. Challenges
1, 2 and 3 focus on carbon and call for eliminating – not just reducing – greenhouse gas emissions from our
vehicles, operations and supply chain. Challenge 4 addresses water availability and quality; Challenge 5 seeks to
move us closer to a recycling-based society; and Challenge 6 is devoted to protecting nature. All six challenges
address some of the world’s most pressing environmental issues and ultimately seek to create a net positive
impact on the planet. And all of them require cooperation if we are to succeed.
Here in North America, we are already taking action to move us toward meeting the six challenges. We are
working on reducing GHG emissions, energy consumption and water use; improving materials management; and
taking action to protect biodiversity.
We also joined the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Suppliers Partnership for the Environment, a forum for
auto companies and their suppliers to work together to improve environmental performance. We see this
partnership as a key mechanism for sharing best practices and collaborating to develop new and innovative
approaches to addressing our environmental impacts.

We are asking you, our suppliers, to help us in our efforts. We believe that by working together, we can scale up
our positive impacts to make a significant difference.
We have updated the Green Purchasing Guidelines (formerly the Green Supplier Guidelines) to align with Toyota’s
global Environmental Challenge 2050 and to consolidate the guidelines from three of Toyota’s North American
companies: Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing North America, Inc. (TEMA); Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A.,
Inc. (TMS); and Toyota Canada Inc. (TCI). We request that you incorporate these revised guidelines into your
environmental programs and engage in initiatives that are in accordance with Toyota’s environmental activities.
Toyota strives to become a global leader in environmental protection and needs your full support and
commitment to make it happen.
Please note, these revised guidelines and other important supplier information can be found on
www.toyotasupplier.com.

FAQs: ISO 14001 & Responsible Care 14001
Q1. What is ISO 14001?
A. ISO 14001 is an international standard for establishing and implementing an Environmental Management System
(EMS).
Q2. What is Responsible Care 14001?
A. Responsible Care 14001 is based on the ISO 14001 EMS and expanded to address the Responsible Care Principles
(environment, health, safety and security)
Q3. What is the difference between ISO 14001 and Responsible Care 14001?
A. There are a number of differences, beginning with the expanded scope of the audit.
Responsible Care 14001 follows ISO 14001's outline in its entirety, except for adding with health, safety and security to
the scope of the activity. For those Suppliers using Responsible Care, the environmental policy now becomes an
environmental, health, safety and security policy.
Q4. How long does it take to implement an EMS that conforms to ISO / Responsible Care standard?
A. The time varies, but typically the implementation, development and certification process takes 1 – 1.5 years from start
to finish.
Q5. Can suppliers self-declare compliance to ISO 14001 / Responsible Care 14001 or is 3rd party certification required?
A. To maintain the credibility, objectivity and consistency of certification, Toyota is requiring third-party certification
from production suppliers. Non-production suppliers are required to have an EMS in place; they may choose to self-
declare compliance to ISO 14001 or RC 14001 but are not required to self-declare or acquire third-party certification.

Carbon
Toyota views climate change as a global priority management issue. To combat climate change, Toyota set a goal to
reduce life cycle CO₂ emissions to zero as part of the Environmental Challenge 2050. Toyota evaluates greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions across the entire vehicle life cycle. At our facilities and in our logistics operations, we set targets through
FY2021 to reduce GHG emissions and increase our use of renewable energy. To support our goal of helping to create a net
positive impact for carbon, we request that our suppliers take an active approach to reducing GHG emissions and
increasing renewable energy use from their own activities. We also request that suppliers seek to reduce GHG emissions
across the entire life cycle of their products by reducing raw material use, increasing the use of recycled materials, and
designing and developing products that limit or eliminate GHG emissions at end-of-life.
Reduction of CO2 Emissions from Supplier Facilities
Toyota undertakes active measures to reduce CO2 emissions from electricity and natural gas consumption. In accordance,
suppliers are also requested to implement CO2 reduction measures in their facilities.
In order to make steady improvements, suppliers are requested to maintain data on renewable and non-renewable
electricity consumption, natural gas consumption and CO2 emissions from these sources

Materials
Toyota recognizes the world must transition to a recycling-based society to avoid large-scale exploitation and depletion of
natural resources and environmental pollution from increasing amounts of waste. To address the global challenge to
establish a recycling-based society, Toyota Motor North America set targets through FY2021 to enhance chemical
management, reduce the use of packaging material 1 percent per year, increase the amount of waste
reduced/reused/recycled, and certify five major facilities as Zero Waste Businesses according to the *U.S. Zero Waste
Business Council definition. To help us establish a recycling-based society, we request that our suppliers undertake similar
activities. We also request that suppliers consider *end-of-life vehicle issues as well as sustainable materials – those that
are made of recycled, recyclable or renewable content – in the development of parts, components and accessories.
Chemical Management
In recent years, an increasing number of chemical substance regulations have been implemented globally. The trend in
chemical substance regulation is changing from hazard management, which focuses only on the toxicity of individual
substances, to risk management, which takes into consideration the degree of impact on people, plants and animals. For
this reason, it is necessary to enhance chemical management. Regulations in Japan, Europe and North America, including
REACH and TSCA, require companies to collect information on the chemical content of their product and manage their
supply chains.
As an employer, OSHA regulations dictate that we must maintain SDSs on all incoming shipments of hazardous chemicals
and ensure that the SDSs are accessible to employees who may come into contact with the chemicals. TMNA has an on-
line SDS management program for this purpose, but we must rely on suppliers to generate and submit accurate SDSs so
that our system is up-to-date and in compliance.
Toyota suppliers must comply with applicable regulations, Toyota standards and quality manuals, and report chemical
usage as summarized in this section.

1. CHEMICALS AND MATERIALS USED IN PRODUCT
Parts & Components, Raw Materials, Service/Accessory Parts, Packaging
Toyota business partners are required to eliminate or reduce certain chemical substances at design, development and
mass production stages for parts and materials and their packaging, and mark plastic and rubber products for the purpose
of recycling.
Engineering Standard TSZ0001G, “Control Method for Substances of Environmental Concern,” defines
substances that are prohibited or restricted for use within parts and materials delivered to Toyota, or that
require declaration of their use. TSZ0001G is updated periodically to align with global regulations and the Global
Automotive Declarable Substance List (GADSL). The latest TSZ0001G can be viewed after secure login to
www.ToyotaSupplier.com.
Toyota suppliers are required to proactively report part and material composition via the International Material
Data System (IMDS). Rules and timing for reporting new products and engineering changes are provided within
the TMNA IMDS Manual. Toyota may also periodically request IMDS information for specific parts or materials,
with a fixed due date.
Suppliers should follow the requirements outlined in the Quality Assurance Policy for Substance of Concern
Compliance for Parts, Raw Materials and Fasteners (QAPSOCC) along with the Supplier Quality Assurance
Manual (SQAM). Toyota-approved test methods for identifying substances of concern are specified in quality-
related documents QSF 122, 122-1, 122-2 and 122-3. QAPSOCC and the QSF are available via
www.ToyotaSupplier.com.
In cooperation with Toyota, applicable suppliers must also identify and/or develop alternative chemicals for parts
or materials containing restricted or prohibited chemicals. Additionally, suppliers are requested to conduct
periodic audits to ensure thorough management of materials and chemicals. Toyota may carry out its own
supplier audits as needed to verify the overall condition of the chemical management system.
Toyota requires plastic and rubber parts marking for recycling as required by regional regulation. Part marking
applies to plastics parts greater than 100 g and rubber parts greater than 200 g. Specific marking requirements
are provided within Toyota Standard TSZ6005G.
Environmental Data Sheets (EDSs) and Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) are required for all chemicals in service parts
and accessories. These documents are used to verify compliance with regulations and conformance to Toyota
internal standards.
Toyota exports domestically sourced service parts and accessories abroad. Chemicals found in these parts could
be subject to TSCA Section 12(b) depending on their chemical makeup. Toyota requires that suppliers provide a
TSCA export certificate for all domestically sourced parts that contain chemicals. This certificate should be
completed by the manufacturer or importer with the most knowledge of the chemical (in some cases, the
chemicals used by a direct supplier to Toyota are sourced from a third party).

2. MATERIALS USED AT TOYOTA FACILITIES
In addition to management of chemicals within Toyota products, business partners are required to eliminate or reduce
certain chemical substances used in raw materials, indirect materials and packaging used within Toyota facilities.
Materials delivered or brought in to Toyota must not contain prohibited substances specified in TMR SAS0126n,
“Banned Substances in Raw Materials and Indirect Materials” (see www.ToyotaSupplier.com). Examples of
relevant materials include raw and indirect materials as well as oil contained in equipment, agrochemicals and
other chemicals.
The Toyota “Environmental Data Sheet” (EDS) is used to collect chemical-specific information about the materials
used at Toyota facilities. This information is used to comply with federal, state and local environmental
regulations.
When shipping materials to a Toyota facility in the U.S., applicable suppliers must submit a Safety Data Sheet
(SDS) that complies with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS)
requirements as implemented under the U.S. OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200). When
shipping materials to a Toyota facility in Canada, applicable suppliers must submit a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) that
complies with the requirements of Health Canada’s WHMIS 2015 (Hazardous Products Act/Regulation).

FAQs: Biodiversity
Q1. What is biodiversity?
A. Biological diversity – or biodiversity – is the term given to the variety of life on Earth and the natural patterns it forms.
This diversity is often understood in terms of the wide variety and interdependence of plants, animals and
microorganisms that inhabit the planet. So far, about 1.75 million species have been identified. Scientists’ estimates on
the number of species range between 3 and 100 million.
Biodiversity also includes genetic differences within each species, for example, between varieties of crops and breeds of
livestock. Chromosomes, genes and DNA – the building blocks of life – determine the uniqueness of each individual and
each species.
Another aspect of biodiversity is the variety of ecosystems such as those that occur in deserts, forests, wetlands,
mountains, lakes, rivers and agricultural landscapes. In each ecosystem, living creatures, including humans, form a
community, interacting with one another and with the air, water and soil around them.
Q2. Why is biodiversity important?
A. The combination of life forms and their interactions with each other and with the rest of the environment has made
Earth a uniquely habitable place for humans. Biodiversity provides a large number of goods and services that sustain our
lives. For example:
Biodiversity is essential to global food security and nutrition and also serves as a safety net to poor households
during times of crisis.
Increased diversity of genes within species, e.g. as represented by livestock breeds or strains of plants, reduces
risk from diseases and increases the potential to adapt to changing climates.
More than 70,000 plant species are used in traditional and modern medicine.
The value of global ecosystem services is estimated at $16-$64 trillion.
Q3. What are some of the biodiversity concerns in North America?
A. Endangered and threatened species: In the U.S., there are 497 endangered and 202 threatened animal species and
732 endangered and 166 threatened plant species.1
Habitat loss: Of the 36 internationally recognized biodiversity hotspots (where 30 percent or less of the original natural
vegetation still exists), five are in North and Central America: California Floristic Province, Caribbean Islands, Madrean
Pine-Oak Woodlands2, Mesoamerica and the North American Coastal Plain.
Declining pollinator populations: In the U.S., 30 percent of crop production depends on pollinators. Of this, honey bees
are responsible for almost 80 percent of all crop pollination. The monetary value of honey bees as commercial pollinators
is estimated at about $15 billion annually.3
Declines in the diversity of flowering plants, loss and degradation of habitat, introduction of non-native species, toxicity
and widespread use of pesticides, air pollution and climate change all play a role in the decline of pollinator populations.
For example, the monarch butterfly population has declined 90 percent over the past two decades.
Q4. What is the Wildlife Habitat Council?
1 U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service’s Environmental Conservation Online System, accessed July 19, 2016 2 The Madrean Pine-Oak Woodlands are subtropical woodlands found in the mountains of Mexico and the southwestern U.S. 3 The estimated value of honey bee pollination in Canada is about $2 billion.

A. The Wildlife Habitat Council (WHC) promotes and certifies habitat conservation and management on corporate lands
through partnerships and education. To WHC, every act of conservation matters. Whether it’s a small pollinator garden or
a complex wetlands restoration, each and every conservation action contributes to the collective positive outcome for the
environment.
WHC’s certification program, Conservation Certification, is built on best practices of global recognition programs, reflects
contemporary conservation efforts and aligns WHC’s collective works with the future of biodiversity, not only in the U.S.,
but across the globe. Conservation Certification helps companies demonstrate a long-term commitment to managing
quality habitat for wildlife, conservation education and community outreach initiatives.

Glossary
Accessories – Toyota parts that are equipped at Toyota dealers, ports or in-line (for example, floor mats, spoilers, body
side molding, navigation systems, etc.).
Biodiversity – Biological diversity – or biodiversity – is the term given to the variety of life on Earth and the natural
patterns it forms. This diversity is often understood in terms of the wide variety and interdependence of plants, animals
and microorganisms that inhabit the planet. So far, about 1.75 million species have been identified. Scientists’ estimates
on the number of species range between 3 and 100 million.
Biodiversity also includes genetic differences within each species, for example, between varieties of crops and breeds of
livestock. Chromosomes, genes and DNA – the building blocks of life – determine the uniqueness of each individual and
each species.
Another aspect of biodiversity is the variety of ecosystems such as those that occur in deserts, forests, wetlands,
mountains, lakes, rivers and agricultural landscapes. In each ecosystem, living creatures, including humans, form a
community, interacting with one another and with the air, water and soil around them.
Direct Supplier – A supplier who provides parts, components or raw materials that go directly on a Toyota vehicle or unit.
EDS (Environmental Data Sheet) – A Toyota document that requests suppliers to provide the full disclosure of ingredient
information prior to shipping materials to a Toyota plant or facility (see www.ToyotaSupplier.com).
ELV (End-of-Life Vehicle) – The European Commission enacted the End of Life Vehicle Directive to address pollution
resulting from vehicles that have reached the end of their useful life, also known as End of Life Vehicle (ELV). The
legislation identifies requirements for the EU Member States to set legislation to encourage reuse, recycling or other
forms of recovery of ELVs and their components.
EMS (Environmental Management System) – A set of processes and practices that help an organization reduce its
environmental impacts and increase its operating efficiency.
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) – GHGs are gases that trap heat in the atmosphere. The most commonly recognized GHGs are the
six gases listed in the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement that established internationally binding emission
reduction targets: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons
(PFCs) and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6).
Indirect Materials – Materials used within a Toyota facility as part of the manufacturing process, facility operations or
maintenance that are not/do not become part of the vehicle (e.g., construction, equipment, landscaping, cleaning fluids).
Indirect Supplier – A supplier who provides goods, services or raw materials that are used in Toyota facilities producing
Toyota vehicles and/or units (for example: construction, equipment, machinery and cleaning suppliers).
ISO 14001 – International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001 is an international standard for establishing and
implementing an environmental management system (EMS).
Logistics – A supplier who manages freight movement.
NAMC – North American Manufacturing Center
Parts, Accessories & Components Supplier – A supplier who provides parts, accessories and components (including
service parts and accessories) that go directly on Toyota vehicles and/or units.
Raw Materials – Materials used by Toyota to make parts, or that are otherwise used on or in a Toyota vehicle (e.g., steel,
resin, paint, adhesives, engine oil). Toyota requires suppliers to manage and report raw materials based on their use both
on a Toyota vehicle (product requirement) and within a Toyota facility.
