Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Thermal Systems provides products, such as air-conditioners, centrifugal chillers and truck refrigeration units throughout the world. Prioritizing the safety and quality of these products, the company has established a QMS (quality management system) to meet the needs of customers and markets based on ISO9001 standards, in addition to individual third party certifications. Furthermore, education programs on safety and quality are provided to prevent product accidents.
Implementing of risk management placing highest priority on customer safety through safety designs and inspections based on design operation management principles
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Thermal Systems acquired ISO9001 certification in 1994, and strives to ensure the
safety of air-conditioning products through the laying down of design operation management principles for
designing and developing products based on a quality management system. A check sheet based on these standards is
used when developing products to carry out a variety of safety inspections to make sure products do not harm
people or assets through fires, explosions or toxic substances at any stage of their lifecycles, from development
to use and disposal.
In the event of products causing serious accidents after being launched onto the market, the company implements
immediate measures to ensure customer safety, and quickly takes steps to verify the facts, analyze and clarify the
causes, and take corrective measures, while also reporting incidents to government agencies and disclosing
information to users and the market.
Based on the product safety policy described above, users were offered free inspections and repairs of "BEAVER"
air-conditioners in January 2018. The lessons learned from this experience were shared internally, including
companies overseas, and we will strive to prevent a recurrence, while fostering a corporate culture of placing
highest priority on product safety.

- We will develop products that satisfy customers
- We will adhere to prescribed procedures in carrying out work to ensure the production of products that satisfy customers
- Products that satisfy customers refer to "products with performance, functions and reliability that satisfy customers, and ensure peace of mind during use."
