We offer cost-cutting proposal confidently, with our affiliated companies and water treatment chemical production factories both in Japan and overseas, wide range coved supply chain. We also propose cost-cutting strategies by increasing productivity and improving the yield rate with our own laboratory with analysis / R & D department.
(We offer a wide range of products, including paper strengthening agents, sizing agents to prevent paper from blurring with ink, and aluminum sulfate as fixing agents to retain those chemicals.)
In our corrugated board department, we handle not only adhesives and equipment, but also common products which are used in all corrugated board factories.
As professional, we are familiar with the paperboard producing process, various paper, different seasons, the bonding situation changes.
