Globally, Toyota has indicated a strong and diverse
commitment to the pursuit of harmonious growth through its technically
advanced and environment-friendly products. There have been
relentless efforts in the crucial fields of mobility, city transportation,
resources, society and environment, through research & development.
Protecting the environment has always been a priority at TKM,
starting with the eco-friendly engines that are manufactured
for the Toyota vehicles, to the advanced technology that is
used for purification or recycling of waste water at the plant.
Apart from this, the plant at Bidadi, Karnataka, is surrounded
by a green belt, meets high environmental standards and has
achieved the ISO 14001 certification in its very first year
of operations.

Quality is ensured in every vehicle that rolls
out of Toyota Kirloskar Motor, through in-built audits at every
process of the system. The company's operational excellence
is based on the improvement tools and methods developed by Toyota
under the Toyota Production System (TPS), greatly emphasizing
superlative quality and minimal waste.
In line with Toyota's growing comfort with its India operations,
the company set up Toyota Kirloskar Auto Parts (TKAP), which
commenced production of transmissions in May 2004, for its global
requirements. Another initiative is the Toyota Techno Park India
(TTPI), a non-profit industrial infrastructure company aimed
at boosting local industries and related job opportunities.
Setting benchmarks for the automobile industry, the manufacturing
facility consists of 4 divisions (shops) – Press, Weld,
Paint and Assembly. |
