CSR (Environmental and Social) Activities
For Developing Quality Products
At Tamron, we continue to work on improving our quality management systems in order to make quality products that satisfy our customers. As a result, Tamron is now capable of performing reliability tests at the same level at home and abroad.
   
Quality Management
Tamron’s head office in Omiya, three factories in Aomori, and Tamron Optical (Foshan) in China have all obtained ISO9001-2000 certifications. All employees are always working to improve our quality assurance systems so that we manufacture high quality products in accordance with the quality assurance objectives of the Tamron Group, supplying products that satisfy our customers.
   
Customer Creed
We at Tamron have been using questionnaires and implementing customer satisfaction studies with users and business customers, feeding the information obtained to all employees. We are effectively using a cycle for quality improvement and reflecting the opinions received into the improvement of existing products and development of new models in order to supply customers with products offering high reliability and enhancing customer satisfaction.

Enhancement of Reliability
Tamron strives to supply customers with products offering long service life. Products are designed with this objective in mind and tested before delivery to customers.

Working toward this goal, Tamron installed additional test instruments at Tamron Optical (Foshan) in 2005 and 2006 to establish a structure capable of performing reliability tests at the factory in China at the same level as in Japan. Major tests include validating performance assurance at use environment temperatures, drop impact tests, vibration tests, repeated operation endurance tests, and thermal shock resistance tests.

For Further Improvement
Tamron is always at the forefront of developing lenses that are convenient and easy to use. As a pioneer in high-power zoom lenses, Tamron developed high-power zoom lenses that combine the functions of two zoom lenses into one compact package. For example, in 2007, Tamron launched the AF 18-250mmm F/3.5-6.3 Di II (Model A18) with a focal length range expanding 50mm more at the telephoto end than the conventional AF 18-200mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di II (A14).
