Origin of the company name, and the corporate logo
Origin of the company name
The company name “Earth” embodies our desire to offer unparalleled Japanese products to the world. Since the company’s foundation, we have attached this name to the company and its products, as we undertake business activities from a global perspective.
Corporate logo
The corporate logo has the company’s name, Earth, as its motif, using the color blue to express safe and comfortable “Life,” and a red segment with a flare to express the Earth Group’s corporate spirit of “Act,” characterized by action with passion and sincerity. The “A” in EARTH was designed as an upward facing arrow, to express the Earth Group’s stance of constantly taking on the challenge of being the best in the world.
“Act For Life” is a simple expression of the company’s corporate philosophy, conveying the Earth Group’s promise to customers that by providing products and services, it will act to contribute to safety and comfort in the lives of people everywhere.
The Japanese version of slogan is a familiar, easy-to-understand expression of this promise to customers that we will “Act For Life,” and could be translated as “Making the Earth a home that feels good.” “Feels good” refers to living in both safety and comfort.
