R.Planner Inc. (Headquarters: Higashi-ku, Nagoya City; President and Representative Director: Masanori Kozue, hereinafter 'the Company'), which develops a housing platform business centered on detached houses, received the 'Certification for CO2 Sequestration Volume of Akita Prefecture Timber Utilization Promotion' from the Governor of Akita Prefecture on January 28, 2026.
■ Overview
The Company is promoting initiatives to reduce environmental impact and achieve a sustainable society in housing construction. Through the active utilization of Akita Prefecture timber in the housing supplied by the Company, the CO2 (carbon dioxide) sequestration volume*1, corresponding to the amount used, has been evaluated, leading to the receipt of this certification.
*1: CO2 Sequestration Volume: The quantified amount of carbon absorbed and fixed by trees during their growth, which continues to be stored within buildings and wooden products during use, thereby suppressing emissions into the atmosphere.
■ Background and Objectives
Wood has the characteristic of absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere during its growth and fixing it as carbon within itself. Using wood in buildings such as houses leads to long-term storage of this carbon, fulfilling the role of an 'urban forest'.
■ Future Outlook
The Company will continue to address environmental challenges through its business activities and promote the use of domestic timber. While supplying housing that balances design, performance, and price, we will also focus on creating environmental value and aim to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.
