We all need to stay warm at home in the winter.
With everyone spending more time indoors now, we often must put on the heating even if only one person is in the home.
Oil prices are surging and the prices for kerosene, gas and electricity are also expected to rise, which will lead to increased home heating costs.
That makes now the perfect time to try Mizuno’s heat-generating Breath Thermo fiber technology.

As a result of changing lifestyles and heightened health consciousness in recent years, sports that are easy to pick up have attracted greater attention. Lack of exercise is said to increase people’s risk of developing lifestyle diseases and also to lead to reduced physical fitness and everyday functionality (e.g. declining physical capacity of bones and muscles, etc.).

Mizuno has been holding Nordic Walking classes, a fun and easy walking program that anyone, including seniors, can take part in with peace of mind.

Although Australia imports 110 million pairs of shoes annually, which 25 million pairs are sports shoes, it is estimated that only around 1% of them gets recycled.

In an effort to reduce waste and help conserve the environment, Mizuno Australia, along with the other sporting brands, has partnered with the Australian Sporting Goods Association’s (ASGA) recycling program called ASGA “Tread Lightly”.

We aim to be carbon neutral by 2050, which means reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the Mizuno Group’s corporate activities to effectively zero. We are also striving to reduce the environmental impact of our manufacturing processes.

In recent years, fewer and fewer locations are available where children can play freely. While parks may be available, many forbid playing with balls, meaning children are faced with restrictions on many forms of play they used to enjoy. Accordingly, this means children have fewer opportunities for exercise.
A lack of exercise and athletic ability when young can have major impact on their health as adults. To provide all children with opportunities to move and exercise, we have developed “Mizuno Ninja School”, athletic play program for children.

We design and sell company uniforms that combine safety and comfort, leveraging the knowhow from developing sporting goods. To enable wearers to move with ease and work more comfortably, Mizuno work apparel is equipped with functions such as Dynamotion Fit, a signature technology that maximizes movability, Dry Aeroflow, a material with superior sweat-wicking ability, and Breath Thermo, a material that absorbs body moisture and uses it to generate heat.

Mizuno’s corporate philosophy is to contribute to society through the advancement of sporting goods and the promotion of sports. Based on this, we sponsor and support a variety of sporting tournaments and events with the aim of bringing the joy and wonder of sports to a wide range of people.

We have signed the United Nations (UN) Global Compact, a global framework for realizing sustainable growth.

The UN Global Compact was proposed by then UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 1999. It calls on participating companies and organizations from around the world to implement the Ten Principles aimed at protecting human rights, eliminating unfair labor practices, tackling environmental issues, and stopping corruption.

We are working with Imasen Engineering Corporation (Gifu, Japan), a welfare equipment manufacturer, to develop a plate spring for sports prostheses. Plate springs for sports prostheses need to be fitted in various ways depending on the type and degree of disability and performance of the athlete who wears them.

Since our founding in 1906, one of our most important values has always been fair play.
