Since its foundation in 1928, Nihon Parkerizing has remained committed to its corporate philosophy: promoting the effective use of Earth's limited resources, creating value through the surface modification of various materials, and contributing to environmental preservation and the development of a prosperous society. In response to the evolving demands of our customers over the years, we have continually refined and enhanced our technologies.

With our 100th anniversary in 2028 and the future beyond that in mind, we are working together as a group to achieve Vision 2030: "Creating new value through surface modification technology to contribute to a sustainable society." As surface modification specialists, we aim to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society and the growth of our group by helping to solve social issues in various fields, including chemicals, toll processing, engineering, and medical devices.

The fifth midterm management plan, which began in April 2025, has set "Challenges for Change" and "Promotion of Regional Management" as its themes. The plan will promote the following three priority items: 

(1)    Sowing and harvesting seeds for the realization of Vision 2030
(2)    Human resource development
(3)    Business reform

Specifically, we will promote open innovation, starting with our recently opened Parker Innovation Center. We will also further refine and differentiate our core technologies, strengthening our research and development activities aimed at realizing a decarbonized society. These activities include those related to electric vehicles (EVs) and hydrogen energy. Additionally, we will promote regional management to strengthen Group cooperation in Japan and overseas. We will also expand our overseas operations and develop products and services tailored to the demands of each region. Furthermore, we will spin off our medical device business to focus on developing new businesses. One such business is the development of Class IV, a highly controlled medical device utilizing our technology.

We believe that earning the trust of our customers and society by resolving social issues is the most essential factor in achieving sustainable growth. As a leading company in surface modification, we are committed to meeting the expectations of all our stakeholders, including shareholders, customers, suppliers, consumers, and local communities.

We are grateful for your ongoing support and guidance and look forward to your continued involvement in the future.
