Material Issue 1Provide Value that Exceeds Customer Expectations and Contribute to Society





Basic Approach and Policy
Today, business corporations are required to solve social issues and improve their corporate value by creating new value for customers and society through business, in addition to continuing with their existing way of doing business.
The Toyo Ink Group has set the three keywords of Life, Communication and Sustainability as its direction for contributing to the enrichment of life and culture into the future in order to contribute to solving social issues through business development in 11 domains. We will also deepen, broaden, and enhance our technology platform, which will enable us to expand our business to a broader range of domains.
Further, we will ensure the provision of product information and quality management, and provide safety and reassurance to customers through various communication activities.

We have defined the technology platforms that will serve as the foundation for our business development in the 11 domains as a “framework of technological infrastructure to actively strengthen and acquire necessary technologies.” As for the Long-term corporate vision SIC27, we will acquire and build the following frameworks.
- New Fields of Science:A framework for acquiring new fields of science such as, biology, agriculture and data science, in addition to the chemical field.
- Application Technology:A framework for building technologies in the software field such as programming and systems design that are needed for our newly developed business models.
- Analysis and Processes:A technical framework for reflecting evidence-based information accurately in developing and proposals to customers.
