The identity of the

Toyota Boshoku group

The identity of the Toyota Boshoku group has been cultivated over more than a century. We have consistently focused on HITOZUKURI (human resources development) and MONOZUKURI (manufacturing and craftsmanship) from the customer's perspective, based on the concept that "human resources development is at the heart of manufacturing." Furthermore, we carry out human-centered advanced R&D, since our products come into direct physical contact with people.
