UL Solutions to Help Companies in Japan Meet New Climate Disclosure Standards in Collaboration with Fujitsu
NORTHBROOK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--UL Solutions (NYSE: ULS), a global leader in applied safety science, is now collaborating with Fujitsu, a leading Japanese multinational company that provides IT services, solutions and technology, to assist Japanese companies in navigating and adhering to Japan's newly developed climate reporting standards. This alliance combines UL Solutions' ULTRUS software portfolio, a unified digital platform designed to streamline regulatory, supply chain and sustainability management, with Fujitsu's deep local market expertise and established client network. Specifically, Fujitsu will leverage UL Solutions' UL 360 environmental, social and governance (ESG) data management software, an offering in the ULTRUS platform, to help its customers meet the evolving sustainability disclosure standards. These new standards, developed by the Sustainability Standards Board of Japan (SSBJ), are aligned with the International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation's International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). 'For long-term business success for companies in Japan, strong ESG reporting is no longer a side issue but a core need for companies,' said Hidehiko Yamajo, regional vice president, Japan, UL Solutions. 'Our new partnership with Fujitsu is a strategic move to help companies navigate these complex ESG reporting demands and complement our existing ESG data management software. These tools simplify these challenges, allowing businesses to manage their data easily, meet new reporting requirements and ultimately create real business value.' The SSBJ's new standards, promoting companies to report sustainability and climate-related information, are now available for voluntary application and proposed for mandatory application in 2027, mirroring the global trend towards increased ESG reporting accountability. These standards build upon previous initiatives, including requirements by the Tokyo Stock Exchange and Japan's Financial Services Agency, a government agency and an integrated financial regulator responsible for overseeing the banking, securities and exchange, and insurance sectors to ensure the stability of Japan's financial system, which have progressively strengthened sustainability disclosure expectations for Japanese listed companies. 'Fujitsu is thrilled to join with UL Solutions for ESG and sustainability reporting in Japan,' said Hidenori Ito, senior vice president, head of Cross-Industry Solutions Business Unit of Fujitsu. 'Fujitsu is consolidating all internal and external data, strengthening disclosure and regulatory compliance, and promoting rapid management decision-making through financial and non-financial analysis to realize ESG management. As part of FujitsuUvance, a business model based on social issues, we will integrate Fujitsu's technologies, such as AI and blockchain technology, based on our knowledge and know-how cultivated through collaboration with UL Solutions and our own practices. We will support the realization of data-driven sustainability management and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society by maximizing corporate value.' In addition to its software solutions, UL Solutions offers a comprehensive suite of enterprise sustainability services, including environmental product declarations and zero-waste-to-landfill claim validations. The ULTRUS software platform, which includes Sustainable Supply Chain & environmental, health, and safety (EHS) services, was recognized as a leader by Verdantix in their Green Quadrant: ESG and Sustainability Reporting Software 2023 and 2025 reports and Green Quadrant: EHS Software 2025 report, as a unified platform, highlighting its effectiveness in helping companies navigate complex ESG reporting regulations and global compliance challenges.

UL Solutions Expands Software Platform for Business Growth and Sustainable Practices with the Latest ULTRUS ™ Software Releases
NORTHBROOK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--UL Solutions Inc. (NYSE: ULS), a global leader in applied safety science, today announced several new ULTRUS software releases that further help companies ensure their compliance and make important progress in sustainability. The ULTRUS software platform by UL Solutions includes offerings designed to help customers worldwide manage complex regulations, heighten product safety, operationalize sustainable practices and improve speed to market. The releases address per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as forever chemicals; Scope 3, Category 1 emissions; wind farm planning, including a mapping feature with artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities for wind energy professionals; and other challenges. 'UL Solutions is staying ahead of the evolving needs of our customers with our powerful new ULTRUS software releases,' said John Genovesi, executive vice president and president of Software and Advisory at UL Solutions. 'These new capabilities are providing our customers with expertise to help manage evolving regulatory requirements, deliver transparency across complex global supply chains and take action on sustainability. ULTRUS software further complements our testing, inspection and certification services.' Many top retailers rely on UL Solutions' WERCSmart ®, an essential part of ULTRUS software, to help manage the safe handling, storage, transport and disposal of products while mitigating risks of noncompliance. UL Solutions recently enhanced WERCSmart ® to help retailers identify PFAS in the products put on retail shelves and collect product documentation from manufacturers to enhance product safety and help protect the environment. PFAS are common substances used to make products resistant to stains or water, but they can linger in the environment and pose hazards to humans and animals. UL Solutions launched its new Purchased Goods and Services module on the ULTRUS software platform. This module, part of the UL 360 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and Sustainability platform, simplifies Scope 3, Category 1 emissions data management and reporting. Scope 3, Category 1 emissions include goods and services that organizations purchase from their suppliers. Managing this type of data is complex for organizations that work with global suppliers and large datasets that may be fragmented or in inconsistent formats. The new module helps organizations set targets, streamline reporting, and drive meaningful sustainability and financial resilience in a changing global economy. UL Solutions also introduced new capabilities to its UL 360 ESG and Sustainability software's ESG Disclosures module to enable data management for International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) disclosures. ULTRUS software users can pull data from the UL 360 platform directly into the module to manage ISSB requirements, providing a data source and audit trail for disclosed values. Legislation based on the ISSB standards is in force or under consideration in many jurisdictions, including Australia, Brazil, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the U.K. Windnavigator software, part of the ULTRUS software platform, has a new AI feature to help wind energy professionals. This tool, called Windnavigator Resource Data and Maps, offers high-quality maps and data, making it easier for developers to find suitable wind farm sites and plan the initial project steps, leading to informed decisions about renewable energy options. UL Solutions also introduced AI capabilities for automated learning content generation to its LearnShare™ software, which enables training and development professionals — including human resources and environmental, health and safety professionals — to quickly and easily create learning quizzes and transcriptions faster via large language models. Last year, UL Solutions launched its ULTRUS software platform, uniting its flagship software to help customers meet regulatory, supply chain and sustainability challenges.
