Environmental sustainability is at the core of our business approach. We generate value by integrating sustainability into the way we design high-quality products and services. Our most significant impact lies in the areas of climate, waste, water, and nature.
Refrigerant Recovery
Daikin Malaysia actively recovers refrigerants through its affiliates, DMSS and AMSS, during servicing and maintenance of air conditioning units. These recovered refrigerants are then sent to a licensed facility for processing and purification to meet the ARI-700 standards (purity >99.5%). Old air conditioning units are also recycled at licensed facilities, ensuring e-waste is properly managed. This initiative is part of Daikin's commitment to sustainability and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

Use of Renewable Energy
Heeding the call of the Malaysian government to encourage the uptake of solar power in Malaysia, Daikin Malaysia is among the pioneers to adopt solar solutions on their rooftops during the Net Metering Scheme (NEM), showcasing our dedication to a greener future.
