COMPANY PROFILE

MESSAGE

Our company has upheld the management philosophy of "contributing to society by providing excellent products" and has consistently engaged in developing, manufacturing, and selling material-handling machinery, construction machinery, and various industrial machinery, leading to our growth until today. It would not be an exaggeration to say that our history has been a continuous process of technological development in response to the needs of each era. Our history is long and dates back to the 1920s, where we began with locomotives and then challenged ourselves to develop and commercialize various types of machinery, such as truck cranes, hydraulic excavators, rough terrain cranes, all-terrain cranes, and crawler carriers, through our pioneering spirit and unique technological innovations since our foundation.

Thanks to our years of unique development and refinement, we have received high praise from customers in Japan and around the world for our technology.

In recent years, as environmental considerations, including the issue of global warming, have been increasingly emphasized worldwide, we consider sustainability management as one of our key priorities. We actively pursue the development and commercialization of models aimed at carbon neutrality. We will continue to contribute to the development of society through our business and strive to achieve a sustainable society while fostering even greater empathy and trust from all our stakeholders and the world.
