Celebrating the 70th anniversary of the company's founding
We are delighted to announce that Takatori Co., Ltd. will celebrate its 70th anniversary in October 2025. This significant milestone has been made possible entirely through the long-standing support and goodwill of our customers, shareholders, partner companies, and local communities, to all of whom we extend our sincerest gratitude.
Since the 60th term, we have been advancing our “Manufacturing Foundation Renewal Plan,” which has now reached an important stage. The First Creation Era, beginning from our founding, was centered on the “Manufacturing Spirit” that has always been the foundation of our company. However, as times changed, we sensed that this guiding spirit was beginning to fade. Consequently, we designated the ten years starting from the 60th term as the Second Creation Era, dedicating ourselves to revitalizing the “Manufacturing Spirit” and strengthening the company’s foundation.
These ten years have been a period of challenges and reforms, aimed at enhancing corporate value and rebuilding the resilience of our company, with the mission of contributing to society through manufacturing. Initially, we had hoped to achieve a fully established system by the 70th term. Yet, upon reflection, we recognize that the “Manufacturing Spirit” cannot be completed through a single effort, it is a mission to be pursued continuously in every era.
Now, as we enter the 70th term, we are determined to deepen this challenge further and evolve into a true global enterprise. The world is currently entering a new industrial paradigm, known as Industry 5.0. Beyond the previous era focused on AI, robotics, efficiency, and automation, the future emphasizes human-centered value creation, sustainability, and resilient industrial structures.
Takatori will continue to strengthen its existing businesses in semiconductors, next-generation material processing, displays, and functional textiles, while actively entering new fields such as medical, healthcare, and clean energy, contributing to society through manufacturing that directly addresses social challenges. In particular, our initiatives in next-generation technologies, such as SiC power semiconductors and all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries, represent both our social responsibility and a pillar for future growth.
Guided by our corporate philosophy of “Creativity and Innovation,” we will continue to challenge with a strong spirit, without end. TEAM TAKATORI pledges to remain united and continue being a company needed by the world, even in these rapidly changing times.
◆Throughout all businesses, we will do our best to support our customers' business by placing the highest priority on creating environmentally friendly products and focusing on safety.
We are determined to carry on the tradition of “Monozukuri Spirit” as well as further improve the technologies and continue to invest in our human resources.
As we celebrate our 70th anniversary, we would like to strengthen our corporate operation to become a more reliable company for our clients and society.
- To be a company trusted and loved by society!
- We strictly observe laws and contribute to society.
- We are devoted to research and development. We are always looking towards the future and to offer solutions in niche markets and to become a company trusted and loved by society.
~We are "Takatori creating things that do not exist in the world."~
