Company information
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.
To become an indispensable company for laboratories around the world.

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.
