For laboratories around the world,
To become an indispensable company.

This also includes medicines and vaccines to overcome intractable diseases.
New crop varieties that can withstand climate change are also being developed.
Bioenergy that reduces environmental impact is also an option.
Everything originates from the "lab."
We started with the development of pharmaceutical containers and later inherited the culture medium manufacturing business from a pharmaceutical company.
The company continues to evolve into one that supports "labs" all over the world.
We have one mission.
To eliminate problems for everyone involved in research, testing, and inspection.
This includes not only those on the front lines, but also those involved in management and administration, and even those responsible for transportation.
Listen to those voices, look closely, and uncover the issues.
Think through everything you can do to solve the problem.
Responding quickly to urgent situations on the ground with the quality standards of pharmaceuticals.
Due to changes in people and society, "problems" have become more sophisticated and complex.
If the laboratory stops functioning, the possibilities of science come to a halt.
That's why we want to be flexible.
Drawing on the knowledge, experience, and skills that have been accumulated,
We continue to challenge ourselves in new areas of contribution. We share one vision for the future.

Values

DISCOVERY(discovery)

Visible "problems" are half-solved. Listen carefully to customer feedback and internal opinions, keep a close eye on the situation on the ground, and discover "problems" that haven't yet been noticed. That's what will lead to true "help."

SOLUTION(countermeasure)

Whenever we encounter a problem, let's make full use of our knowledge, experience, and equipment to thoroughly consider what we can do and what is needed. The answer lies beyond a never-give-up attitude.

SPEED(speed)

For customers facing difficulties on-site, speed is paramount. While you're meticulously preparing, the situation might change. Take action when you're 60% ready. Aim for 100% while you're moving.

EVOLUTION(evolution)

Our customers' problems are diverse. If our knowledge and experience can be utilized, we will take on the challenge of solving them, without being constrained by our current business. This flexible attitude will lead to both our customers' growth and our own evolution.

3 Message from the Representative

Through inheritance and evolution,
"Peace of mind" for labs around the world
Delivering value

Our history began in 1967 with the founding of MS Industries Co., Ltd. as an injection molding factory. Since then, we have keenly grasped the changing times, and have built trust with our customers by repeatedly passing on technology and continuously innovating. And now, our journey has gone beyond the realm of mere manufacturing, and we have expanded our business domain into the medical and life science fields, where even higher levels of quality control are required. What we have consistently upheld since our founding is "integrity to quality." This is not simply about providing products that conform to standards, but about eliminating the anxieties of all stakeholders involved in the laboratory, from researchers, material suppliers, and those in logistics to people all over the world who await the research results, and delivering "peace of mind" and "satisfaction." When there is a problem, we do not turn a blind eye to the facts, and we walk alongside our customers toward a fundamental solution. We believe that this integrity is our strength and the reason why we have been chosen to this day. Solving small troubles and inconveniences hidden in the workplace directly leads to raising the efficiency of society as a whole. LABOLOGY's mission is to support the evolution of global infrastructure so that a richer and healthier future can be delivered to society sooner than ever before. We promise to deliver "the world's highest level of safety" to everyone. Please let us know about any small concerns you have with our products, or any little things that bother you in your daily life. We will take each and every one of these concerns and elevate them to an even higher level of safety. We will continue to evolve honestly and steadily towards a future where everyone involved can be confident that "simply being involved with LABOLOGY is contributing to society."
