Message from the President / Core Values

Since our founding in 1905, we have pursued the limitless possibilities of glass through the development of specialty glass and the production of uniquely shaped lenses using proprietary manufacturing technologies.

The technologies and expertise we have cultivated over nearly 120 years have been applied across a wide range of fields, including medical, biochemical, aviation, aerospace, energy, semiconductor, entertainment, and sensing industries, contributing to safer, more secure, and more comfortable lives for society.

What has sustained this journey is our belief in “respecting and appreciating others, believing in oourselves, and always striving for greater heights.

We never forget our gratitude to everyone who supports us, and while taking pride in the technologies we have developed over the years, we continue to challenge ourselves in pursuit of even better solutions.

Today, we remain committed to our original philosophy of “solving our customers’ challenges through technology.”

By working closely with each customer, we continue to create new value as a company driven by research and development.

We also strive to generate value that contributes to a better future for our customers, society, and ourselves.

The world illuminated by light still holds limitless possibilities.

Moving forward, we will continue to take on new challenges without being bound by conventional thinking, developing innovative materials and products that go beyond existing standards. By combining specialty optical materials and lens manufacturing technologies with optical design, IT, and production engineering, we will continue to deliver optimal solutions to our customers.

Guided by our commitment to “contributing to society through glass technology,” we will continue to move forward together with the changing times.
