Corporate
Profile

[Company strength]
We use original synthesis and polymerization technologies to manufacture agents, particularly surface functional agents, based on fluorine compounds, such as water- and oil-repellent treatment agents and fingerprint adhesion prevention agents. Customers often have very precise needs and the performance hurdle in this niche market is high, so our policy is to develop products for highly specific applications. We offer an excellent product mix of small-quantity, multi-kind products which major companies cannot commercialize. In addition, we quickly and flexibly handle various specifications, specification changes, customization, OEM supply and the like, according to individual requests of customers. 

[Business description]
Development, manufacturing and sales of products including fluorine-based compounds, such as fluorine-based water- and oil- repellent treatment agents, antifouling coating agents, fingerprint adhesion prevention agents, dry lubrication coating agents, substrate moisture prevention agents, and stock solution for waterproofing sprays. We have supplied products to many OEM companies.

[Industry]
Manufacturing and sales of chemical products

[Strength of products/technologies]
Many fluorine-based compounds have unique reactivity and niche applications, and therefore special reaction methods, etc. which are not disclosed in scientific literature are necessary. We have accumulated knowledge and technologies as a specialist, and thus can manufacture original products. 



[Representative's message]
We synthesize fluorine resins for water- and oil-repellent treatment agents and the fluorine coating agent “Fluorosurf” based on our advanced technologies, and thus can flexibly handle various specification changes such as for controlling properties by changing the resin component composition, controlling thickness by changing the resin component concentration, and selecting the solvent to use. We provide specification selection and technical know-how based on information and technical capabilities which we have cultivated over the years, thereby helping to solve problems quickly. We have agents in the Asia region, including in Taiwan, China, Korea, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore, thus supplying to the entire region.

[Company structure for market development/overseas expansion]
We have two full-time staff in charge of sales engineering, who handle inquiries from customers in and out of the country, introduce sales agents and provide technical information services. With respect to sales, as we specialize in technology and manufacturing, our agency in each region handles direct sales. However, we have a person in charge in each region who has technical skills, proposes solutions to customers’ problem, and supplies technical information.

[Market share/Ranking]
We have a 30% share of the Japanese market for stock solutions for waterproofing sprays. 
The market share in other fields is unknown since there are no competitors.
