At ROHTO Pharmaceutical, we are engaged in activities to promote ecology while cooperating with people who use our products and the communities in which we conduct our business activities.
“R-eco” symbol
Products that meet the labeling criteria established by ROHTO Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. are marked with the "R-eco."
We are working together with customers who want to purchase products that are as environmentally friendly as possible to reduce the environmental burden, so that the eco of products can be understood at a glance.
Every change in containers and packaging, even if small, has produced significant environmental contribution effects overall.
