Company PR
For more than 180 years since our founding, Toda Kogyo has developed at pace with the industrialization of red oxides, iron oxides, and ferrite in Japan. With the material synthesis technologies that we have developed over this long history, we have established a position for ourselves as a material development manufacturer supporting the foundation of the modern digital network society. Our goal is to utilize our materials to create a new Toda Kogyo which provides solutions in support of IT, the environment, and energy. Towards this goal, we are progressively applying our technologies and experience to develop new materials, and raising the level of our product processing, shifting from materials to applications, in order to provide business solutions. We are determined that we will be a company with true value in the 21st century.
