Message from the President

A company that supports the new society while keeping traditions alive
Since our founding in 1948 (Showa 23), we have been making various general-purpose and specialized woodworking machines as a wood machinery manufacturer. With the support of sales trading companies, we've become widely involved in Japan's housing industry and have worked hard to create products that are well-loved. Over time, we’ve expanded beyond woodworking machines into other sectors like semiconductors, automobiles, and environmental equipment. Using our long-accumulated experience, skills, and track record in manufacturing, we are now recognized as a company that produces industrial equipment people can trust and rely on. Moving forward, we will continue to uphold the tradition of making woodworking machines while contributing to society as a company that supports the new world through industrial machinery. Each of us will keep striving with a “Pride in Work” spirit. We aim to be a company that can contribute through products and services that satisfy our customers, and we will continue to put in our best efforts to achieve that.
