Since our company’s founding in 1905, we have been developing coarse tea processing equipment such as steamers and dryers mainly in the steeped tea field. Currently, we also provide facilities for general tea production, such as tea farm management machines including harvesters and pest control machines, and high-pressure steam sterilizers for foodstuff products. All of this is part of a continual total effort to “Aim for customer benefits through our product” as described in our company principles. In recent years, interest in tea including green tea has grown worldwide. Everyone around the world has again begun to realize how wonderful it is not only as a thirst quenching and as a functional beverage having health benefits, which of course are highly rated but also as an enjoyable and tasty beverage, which are the original basic qualities of green tea. The varieties, degree of fermentation, processing method, and serving methods and the number of potential combinations of these that are part of the individuality of tea still have many hidden possibilities and give it extremely great appeal as a product of taste and leisure. We will continue to explore each and all possibilities needed to respond to ever diversifying tea needs. We will further continue to provide equipment that enables people around the world to produce tea they can drink with a feeling of safety and peace of mind while also applying the principles of tea making created by predecessors along with our own advanced knowledge and technology. I believe that this is our mission.
