Global Strategies ～Think Global, Act Local～
Our Global Network Enabling Business Development Deeply Rooted in Local Communities

We aim to become a company that delivers unique technologies and products all over the world, in order to save human lives and resolve social issues. To do so, we promote activities deeply rooted in local communities worldwide. We advance transculturation from a global perspective. There is no border in chemistry, and when we do a business in foreign land, we focus on conducting local-based business (glocal business) by overcoming cultural differences. Our goal is to become a company with a global presence by offering valuable solutions to the world market in a timely manner. Think Global, Act Local.

We establish a headquarter in each region in order to make speedy business development that makes much closer connection with a local community.
Each of 4 “Solution Units” draws up a global strategy for products and services it handles that incorporates both domestic and overseas subsidiaries, and develop business activities based on such strategy.
We have approximately 50 overseas subsidiaries, as well as 2 research institutes in 22 countries of overseas. Consolidated number of employees is approximately 11,000, and among them, 3,000 are working in overseas sites.
