Wear it
Thinking about the future of the environment

Choosing BODYWILD means contributing to environmental regeneration. Not only does it care for the wearer's mind and body with its comfortable fit and excellent design, but simply wearing it also connects you to the environment. Gunze's BODYWILD line was one of the earliest adopters of environmentally conscious initiatives, such as eco-friendly packaging and the use of recycled materials, making it the perfect underwear for today's times. We'll introduce you to the relationship between BODYWILD and the creation of the global environment, as well as our future.

In the not-too-distant future,
What will happen to the Earth?

The Earth we live on today is facing a variety of environmental problems. Among these, many people are likely to be aware of the abnormal weather and climate change caused by global warming in their daily lives. An increasing number of companies and activities are promoting carbon neutrality, which aims to achieve a net zero difference between carbon dioxide emissions and absorption. As environmental problems become even more serious these days, it is becoming increasingly important to go one step further and become carbon negative, meaning that carbon dioxide absorption exceeds carbon dioxide emissions. This is one of the issues we must face if we are to live comfortably while protecting the global environment.

Contributing to the Earth through greening
Gunze Group

As a company that values the environment, Gunze has been contributing to local communities through greening for over 50 years. In the past five years, the Gunze Group has been involved in greening activities, planting a cumulative total of approximately 25 million plants, from flowers to trees. In order to link this long-standing contribution to local communities through greening to solving the issue of global warming, Gunze has now begun a new initiative to confirm and measure the long-term contribution of its greening business to absorbing greenhouse gases.

"BODY WILD" and
Carbon Negative Initiatives

greenhouse gas emissions

CO2 absorption

At Gunze Green,
This corresponds to CO2 absorption of approximately 4,843 t-CO2e per year.
We supply trees all over the country

This calculation proves that BODY WILD products are carbon negative, achieving virtually zero greenhouse gas emissions.

This was discovered through industry-academia collaborative research
Environmentally friendly "BODY WILD"

This data scientifically calculates the greenhouse gas reduction contribution made by Gunze Green's greening business and the greenhouse gas emissions generated by the production of Gunze's "BODY WILD" products. This data was generated using a highly reliable method called extended life cycle assessment, developed by the Kyushu University Urban Research Center through industry-academia collaborative research. Based on this reliable analysis, greenhouse gas emissions and reductions were accurately calculated, and "BODY WILD" was recognized as having achieved carbon negative status.

Obtained "CARE certification"
Recognized by a third-party organization
Environmental restoration efforts

Have you heard of the term "CARE Certification"? It is an ESG certification system that is currently attracting global attention. Created by the Institute of Metrology and Sustainability Science, it is the world's first initiative that makes it possible for anyone to see whether the environmental impact and human rights are being protected during the product manufacturing process.
The "CARE Certification" has two categories: "ENVIRONMENT" (environmental category) and "HUMAN RIGHT." Gunze believes that these are values that should be further spread throughout the world in the future, and has therefore obtained the "CARE ENVIRONMENT Carbon Negative Certification" (environmental category).

Choosing "BODY WILD"
Seriously thinking about the Earth and the future

In an age where the relationships between people, the environment, and society are becoming increasingly complex, Gunze's concept of "sustainability" is about being close to the Earth and its future on a large scale. Choosing environmentally friendly products is also an expression of a stance that is committed to addressing the very issues facing the planet. To remain a brand that everyone can relate to as "BODY WILD, which can protect the future by wearing it," we will continue to face social and global issues and move towards the future by giving shape to them.
