Greeting
Our company began its business in 1894 as a silk reeling company, and for over 130 years, we adapted to the changes of times and continued to grow and evolve our business.
In 1958, we started the manufacturing and sales of automotive supplies as a primary supplier to automobile manufacturers, which became the foundation of our current business. After that, in addition to textile products, we also entered into the field of resin products and have contributed to the development of the automotive industry as a specialized manufacturer of genuine car accessories.
Since our foundation, we have valued the spirit of “harmony.” “Harmony” means an attitude of respecting each other and working together to create new value, i.e. “pursuit of betterness” We believe that the value of this spirit can only be shown in the cooperation of our employees and in relationships of trust with our partner companies. Based on our we will bring together their wisdom and strength core value “harmony” and continue to take on new challenges.
Our mission is to accurately grasp “changes of people, mobility and time” and provide products and services that support safe, comfortable, and environmentally friendly means of transportation for our customers. Through this initiative, we aim to spread the circle of smiles to our customers, local communities, and the world. The current era requires more flexible and rapid responses than ever before. In the midst of these changes, we value the spirit of “harmony” and will continue to work together with our business partners to create new value while leveraging each other’s strengths and challenge ourselves for a better future.
We would like to ask for your continued support and cooperation as a partner who shares the spirit of “harmony” and continues to grow together.
