Toyota’s culture of shared environmental responsibility has enabled the company’s manufacturing facility to implement 1,700 energy-saving measures over the past five years—resulting in a CO2—emission reduction result of 120,000 tons—that’s roughly equivalent to planting 45,000 trees. As you can see, our philosophy of continuous improvement affects our actions as much as our products.
“Toyota is committed to environmental responsibility, and it’s a role we take very seriously. Beyond pushing the bounds of product innovation, one of Toyota’s goals is to support environmentally appropriate and socially beneficial initiatives contributing to a cleaner environment.”
Shankar Basu, Chairman and CEO of TMHU

3. TIEM is ISO14001 certified and requires their top 65 suppliers, who account for more than 75% of the materials purchased locally, to be ISO14001 certified or have an equivalent EMS (Environmental Management System).
4. TIEM is one of only 14 Indiana businesses inducted as a charter member of Indiana's new Environmental Stewardship program.
