Yokohama Rubber has once again been named in the FTSE4Good Index Series, marking 21 consecutive years of inclusion in the global ESG benchmark. The company has also retained positions in the FTSE Blossom Japan Index and the FTSE Blossom Japan Sector Relative Index for the ninth and fourth years respectively.
The FTSE4Good Index Series, developed by FTSE Russell, is widely used by institutional investors to assess companies’ environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance. Yokohama’s continued presence in the index reflects its sustained alignment with these criteria.
The company’s inclusion in the FTSE Blossom Japan Index and its sector-relative counterpart also supports its ESG credentials within Japan. Both indexes are used by the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) of Japan to guide ESG-focused asset allocation, further underlining the strategic importance of these recognitions.
Operating under the sustainability slogan “Caring for the Future”, Yokohama Rubber continues to pursue environmental and social objectives through its tyre and rubber business activities. The company emphasises the creation of shared value, aiming to address broader societal challenges alongside business performance.
With institutional investors applying more ESG filters, sustained recognition reflects both strategic direction and reporting transparency, a trend shaping sustainability standards across the global tyre sector.
