the Decades
Attachment Plug
In 1918, Konosuke Matsushita
rented a two-story home,
establishing Matsushita Electric
Devices Manufacturing Works
on the first floor. In his larger
workshop, Konosuke was able to
expand production to include the
innovative attachment plug and
a two-way socket – earning the
company a reputation for high
quality at low prices.
90 Years

3-Tube Radio
Radio broadcasting was
rapidly catching on in Japanese
households, but the radio sets
the nation was tuning in on were
prone to problems. Konosuke
Matsushita himself was irritated
to have a programme he was
enjoying cut short, and so set
out to design a radio that
“wouldn’t break down”.
Monochrome TV 17K-531
Gearing up for the open
experiment held in Kyoto
before the full-blown start
of Japanese TV broadcasting
in 1953, a group of engineers
joined forces to complete
the development of the first
National TV set, the 17K-531,
in only two months.

Toot-a-Loop Radio R-72
In the early 1970s, the Apollo
11 had just landed on the moon,
signalling the start of the new
space age, Volkswagen Beetles
ruled the roads and roller skates
were a must-have. The Toot-a-
Loop fashion radio, with its objet
d‘art theme, unusual design and
fun colours, embodied the
sense of fun and youthfulness
of prevailing pop culture.
Record Player SL-10
A hi-fi audio craze gripped
Japan from the late 1960s
through to the mid-1980s,
as music lovers sought high-
fidelity sound that was true
to the recording studio. The
remarkable SL-10 employed a
linear tracking system, where
the needle traces the grooves
at the same angle as the
blade that cut the record
in the first place.
03
THE FOUNDER
A frail, sickly bicycle apprentice who survived
unspeakable childhood tragedy, Konosuke
Matsushita lacked formal education, wealth,
charisma, con nections and even a special talent.
Yet, early hardships produced hidden strengths
which opened Konosuke Matsushita‘s mind to the
collective wisdom of others. The author reveals how
a lifelong thirst for learning fuelled the passion that
led this humble, shy 5-foot-5-inch humanitarian
idealist to pioneer management practices and
advance his philosophy that the mission of a
manufacturer is to relieve poverty and create
wealth, not only for shareholders, but for society. KONOSUKE MATSUSHITA

Blu-ray Player DMP-BD10
The concept of a black box was
of something that looks very
simple from the outside, but
which is extremely functional and
intelligent on the inside. In order
to realise this in a form that most
people could easily recognise
and understand, the design team
agreed that the first step would
be to develop a design that
evoked “simplicity in both
form and materials”.

ENERGY EFFICIENT PRODUCTS
Additionally, Panasonic aims to deliver greener products. This
entails not only using sustainable materials or building recyclability
into the product design – but also ensuring that the products
effi ciently conserve energy. Panasonic aims to increase the number
of products with top-level, energy-effi cient performance whilst
phasing out products with low energy effi ciency.
PANASONIC ECO IDEAS DECLARATION
In addition to adding major environmental metrics to the GP3
business plan, Mr Fumio Ohtsubo, President of Matsushita Electric
Industrial, recently announced the Panasonic Eco Ideas declaration
comprising three pledges:
1. We will produce energy efficient products
2. We will reduce CO2emissions across all our manufacturing sites
3. We will encourage the rollout of environmental activities worldwide
So what do these pledges mean in practice?
004_005_editorial_eco.indd 1 22/9/08 09:20:49

05
REDUCING CO²BY 300,000 TONNES BY 2010
By 2011, i.e. over the next three years, Panasonic aims to eliminate 300,000
tonnes of CO2 emissions from its 294 manufacturing plants around the globe.
In 2011, Panasonic plans to further reduce emissions to the level of that in
2001, effectively rolling back its CO2 emission amount to that of ten years
previously. To achieve this goal, Panasonic has established a system where
23 environmental key performance indicators (such as CO2 emissions) are
collected each month from all 294 manufacturing sites worldwide and are
monitored. Additionally, and just as important, the reduction of CO2 is not
only limited to manufacturing activities, but also includes: product planning,
procurement, sales, logistics and recycling.
CONTINUOUSLY SEEKING TO DEVELOP “GREEN PRODUCTS”
Our goal is to help build a sustainable society by accelerating the spread
of products with higher environmental performance. Since starting the
development of our Green Products Plan in 1997, we have worked hard
to minimise the input of energy and resources, as well as the output of
waste and emissions throughout the products’ life cycles. We constantly
increase the proportion of Green Products across our entire product range.
Our product development is based on criteria such as universal design,
which means easy-to-use design for everyone and the minimisation of
environmental impact.
ECO IDEAS FOR EVERYBODY EVERYWHERE
Panasonic is encouraging the rollout of environmental activities
worldwide by taking the initiative in promoting ecological movements on
local and global levels, collecting the insight of not only of its employees,
but also of people around the world.

Panasonic and Toyota in F1
Since the inception of Toyota’s Formula 1 team, Panasonic Toyota Racing, in 2001, Panasonic has been
much more than just the title sponsor. By working together closely with the team Panasonic has also been
able to contribute technically to the teams success in one of the most competitive sports in the world.
To begin with, Formula 1 cars do not just have a turn key
ignition like normal road cars – instead a laptop is needed,
and it’s a Panasonic unique magnesium-encased Toughbook-
series of laptops which perform this task for Panasonic Toyota
Racing. A Toughbook is attached to the car, the engine is
initially turned over without a spark such that it generates all
the pressures in the various systems, and the Toughbook is
used to analyse that all is functioning correctly
PCs
The Panasonic Toyota Racing garage and motorhomes
are the most technologically advanced in the Paddock and
contain numerous LCD and Plasma TVs. Panasonic Viera
LCDs, due to their bright backlights, are used in the pit
garage to display the telemetry information collected from
the car during races – vital information which needs to be
shared with all engineers. Unusual for an LCD, Viera LCDs
boast ultra-wide 178 degree viewing angles, meaning that
there is no problem for the all the pit crew to crowd around
and see it. Furthermore, the motorhome is fi lled with luxury
large-screen Viera Plasma TVs – ideal for watching the races
unfold in beautiful, high defi nition quality – and equally good
for showing fi lms to help the mechanics wind-down after a
hard day’s work!

Overall, through its technical contributions to the team, Panasonic is much more than
just a logo on the car – and looks forward to expanding the areas it can contribute towards
the teams success.

of-the-range High Defi nition camcorders

When Panasonic began to develop its design vision for VIERA in 2008,
its main aspiration was to produce designs that are suitable for a wide
range of users and to devise a premium design series that underlines the
unique identity that makes Panasonic products instantly recognisable.
VIERA Design
Viera Full-HD Wide Plasma TVs on Pages 32-36

The focus of the fl at screen TV market, especially
within the premium class segment, has shifted
towards a slim, lightweight design utilising high-
end materials. Taking this trend into account, a key
factor of importance in the 2008 Panasonic VIERA
design approach is to integrate European style
and taste into this year‘s range of VIERA TVs. The
approach to the design process can be described
as “Innovative Design”. The basic concept
central to innovative design includes continuous
innovation, values for the future and a keen
sensitivity to harmony and balance in the home.
In comparison to its predecessor, the 2008
design has been enhanced and yet has retained
its consistency, from the smaller-sized LCD
TVs right through to the largest Plasma TVs.
The result of our endeavours towards a unique
design concept is to use one sheet of glass
making the screen completely fl at, thus giving it
the impression of it literally “fl oating”. This is a
major step for Panasonic: developing a unique
concept in one year while maintaining the design
and the renowned Panasonic construction quality.
Historically, the Panasonic brand has been
addressing a more mature consumer base than
other brands; therefore to meet the needs of these
consumers, we have maintained a progressive,
sensitive and timeless design rather than turning
to an avant-garde, trendy design. With that said,
we have been regenerating the brand to address
the needs of a younger consumer base as well.
VIERA‘s simple, straight line and organically-
balanced shape makes for an overall attractive
design that stands out from the crowd.
