Learn about our domestic production sites that develop and produce products by utilizing our unique technologies created by the Textile Innovation Center (TIC), our center for research and development.
We leverage our advanced unique technologies in spinning, weaving, dyeing, and processing to continuously develop and produce high-performance, highly sensitive textile products with a base of cotton and other natural fibers.
We are also working to achieve smart factories by taking measures such as improving productivity and optimizing quality and environmental preservation.
TOKUSHIMA PLANT
The Kurabo Tokushima Plant, constructed in 1996, serves as the core plant for development and production in dyeing and processing for the Textile Business Division.
Utilizing the dyeing and processing technologies we have accumulated over the years as a base, we develop and produce high value-added products made with consideration for people, society, and the planet.
Our integrated production system and unique continuous dyeing facilities ensure stable quality control and quick response manufacturing.
With regard to environmental efforts, we have established a complete treatment system that also includes wastewater treatment and waste disposal facilities, and we are also committed to production practices that take the global environment into consideration by quickly addressing zero emissions and CO2 emissions reduction, as well as wastewater volume reduction.
Advanced Color Management Technology
The Tokushima Plant has created a range of quality control systems to ensure that we provide high-quality products.
One of these systems is “EYE-D”, a color management technology, that has realized accurate and high-quality color reproduction through our continuous evolution in the pursuit of colors.
Our computer color matching system (CCM) for calculating optimum dye formulations, automatic liquid blending equipment that precisely formulates the formulations, and a color measuring system that performs real-time color management on the production line work together to reduce dye waste, improve efficiency and accuracy in color mixing operations, and contribute to reductions in CO2 emissions and water consumption.
Green production activities
Under the Human Friendly concept, we are developing materials with high added value that are friendly to people, society, and the Earth, while also conducting green production activities.
