Hioki Singapore Contributes to Reforestation Efforts at Khao Yai National Park in Thailand

Singapore

On October 1, 2014, Hioki Singapore, with the help of 30 local students and teachers from Subtai School in Thailand, planted 191 new trees in Baan Subtai, Khao Yai National Park, as part of Hioki’s Green Point Campaign.

As a core activity in carrying out its corporate philosophy, summarized in the slogan “Contribution to Society”, Hioki E.E. Corporation sponsors the “Hometown Afforestation” program, in which annual tree plantings have been conducted, mainly at nearby elementary and junior high schools and public facilities.

Taking this one step further, in 2008 Hioki launched the Green Point Campaign, whereby the company plants trees in the community on behalf its customers based on their purchases of Hioki products that are developed specifically to benefit environmental conservation, such as energy loggers, temperature meters, and power meters that help customers qualify their products according to various energy saving standards.

The program was extended to Hioki’s international subsidiaries in 2013, and the results for Hioki Singapore culminated in a tree-planting event in cooperation with the Plant a Tree Foundation (PATT), a non-profit organization operating throughout the Southeast Asia region that initiates, develops and manages large-scale reforestation projects countering deforestation and climate change.
