We are engaged in product development for the future of the industry, which supports the marine environment and protects ships simultaneously. Our main product, Marine paint, innovates a new type paint, one which suppresses elution of paint into the ocean and maximizes antifouling performance. Accordingly, it has already been adopted by a large number of Japanese government and merchant ships.
For the future, we have made it our goal to develop our business into a truly global brand.

Manufacturing concept for elution-suppressing ship bottom antifouling paint
・Through the development and dissemination of ship bottom paints that reduce the release of chemical substances compared to ordinary paints and minimize environmental impact and health hazards to shipbuilders, we intend to create a society where pollution of water sources and marine environments are prevented and ecosystems are safeguarded.
