Business
Industrial Materials Department
Leveraging our supply chain to drive evolution in various industries.
We have been handling chemical products since 1949, shortly after the end of World War II, providing a variety of industrial materials to meet the needs of our customers. In addition to the procurement and trade of goods, we support customers in a wide range of business areas, both upstream and downstream, by investing in equipment and building supply chains in Japan and overseas.
Building of industry-specific
supply chains.
We provide total coordination of the flow of products, from the procurement of raw materials to manufacturing, delivery, sales, and consumption, utilizing systems catering to specific industries and fields. With our long track record and networks built through numerous projects, we will help bring evolution to manufacturing and business in Japan.
Collaborations with partners as a means for creating broader, more rapid connections
We undertake our business activities from a broad perspective by collaborating with a wide range of business partners and industries, as well as with Daimaru Kogyo's automotive and electronics departments, bridging diverse fields in a speedy manner. We will expand our possibilities through connecting points and creating new ties.
Helping improve development and production capabilities through capital investment
As a trading company that supports manufacturing, we do not simply establish logistic and product distribution channels. By investing in manufacturing machinery and metal molds, we reduce our customers’ burden of initial costs and laterally support the development of new products.
A wide product lineup,
including metals, resins,
and chemicals.
We handle a wide variety of products, from metal materials including iron, copper, and aluminum to products such as heat exchangers; resin raw materials and resin products such as resin sheets, functional films, containers, and plastic bottles; inorganic chemicals such as cleaning agents, soda ash (sodium carbonate), caustic soda (sodium hydroxide), silicate soda, and silica; and industrial chemicals such as bromine-based cleaning agents.
We also develop original products such as hot-melt and anti-viral PE films.
A global network that enables
overseas procurement.
Utilizing our foreign Group companies mainly in China, and ASEAN countries, we procure product materials from all over the world and export domestic materials to various regions. If necessary, we can adapt to the characteristics of the materials and finished products by importing locally molded products and processing and assembling them in Japan. In order to ensure peace of mind in our customers’ overseas business dealings, we conduct thorough quality control, including logistics and delivery scheduling.
Rigorous logistics, delivery scheduling, and quality control
Reliability of quality is essential for overseas transactions. We have established a stable production system by having staff from local companies go to production plants to help maintain the factory environment and communicate with workers. In addition to strict quality control based on our own standards, we also conduct thorough voluntary inspections in case of any problems.
Numerous agency agreements
with domestic and foreign
companies as proof of trust.
We have concluded agency agreements with domestic and overseas sales agents and manufacturers. We have the trust of JFR group, a proven track record spanning many years, the ability to set things in motion swiftly and with precision, the ability to cater to a wide range of industries and business sectors, and the global power of a worldwide network. All these strengths enable us to engage in business activities that reflect the trust of our customers.
