Raw materials for paints and inks, and sales of paints and ink products

How do we respond to accelerating changes in the external environment and requests for environmental measures?

Resins, pigments, additives, solvents, monomers, etc., that make up coatings and ink are affected by various factors such as withdrawal of manufacturers, product integration, and price hikes, while there are growing demands for the development of environmentally friendly products and the use of biomass materials. While we strive to sell raw materials with an eye toward alternative products, we also keep an eye on new materials and are always ready to introduce raw materials to meet the needs of our customers.

Environmental response

Good for the environment, good for people, good for the future, a new earth-friendly “three-way” policy

Plant-derived raw materials, biomass, de-petroleum, de-carbonization, environment and earth-friendly, etc. As people are calling for symbiosis between raw materials and the environment with the future of the earth in mind, we are also dealing with a variety of raw materials. We strive to contribute to our customers’ development of new products based on the theme of various possibilities, such as imported rice oil fatty acids, various vegetable oils, alternative materials to plastics, “green chemical” products with less environmental impact and recycling of waste materials, and being friendly to the earth and human beings.

Bringing Japan’s unique and superior technologies of coating

Ink and raw material manufacturers to overseas markets!

The Coating Chemicals Dept. promotes sales of products developed independently by coating, ink and raw material manufacturers that are our customers, develops their technologies and selects overseas partners, and provides other support. Recently, we have focused on infrastructure development and environmentally friendly products, which are in great demand, and we have been expanding excellent Japanese original technology overseas through presentations at government offices and overseas business matching conferences, as well as negotiations with overseas local governments.

Unique Products

From unique raw materials such as next-generation photocatalysts and limonite. We create something from nothing!

We are constantly working to create something from nothing through collaboration with our customers by acquiring various raw materials such as new photocatalysts, limonite (loess), which had limited applications, and various plant-derived raw materials that meet the demand for biomass materials. As a trading company, we work with our customers to create products that have never been produced before. This is the real pleasure of “Beyond Chemical.” Would you like to take the first step toward a product you haven’t seen yet with us?

Resin and paint manufacturer restructuring

Challenges for the future with a view to business withdrawal and restructuring within the industry

Business withdrawal within the industry and industry restructuring have been increasing recently. There are various backgrounds, including profitability issues, declining demand, and aging facilities. The Coating Chemicals Dept. strives every day to ensure that both manufacturers and users can continue their businesses with peace of mind by preparing for the coming future in a variety of ways. These include matching service for contract chemical manufacturing, such as outsourcing of manufacturers’ products, introduction of products that meet customer needs, and inventory sales for overseas products.
