Manufacture's Feature

Synergy is at our core, and we will continue to spread our wings.。

There are three business divisions within the two companies that comprise the Daiwa Kasei Group. The Trading Division exists within Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd., and the Research & Development and Manufacturing Divisions exist within Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd. (Laboratory). Speed is a critical requirement for research and development work but the organic relationships among our three divisions allows us to both to faster develop the products and technologies our customers are looking for and to quickly respond to the problems they face.

Synergy, for the Daiwa Kasei Group, produces three key strengths。

Originality
Rising to the challenge of doing things no one has done before—we develop creative technologies and original products with a desire for innovation.
Service Power
We ensure our customers are completely satisfied by providing full, integrated service that combines our trading and manufacturing functions.
Speed
We rapidly respond, whatever the customer’s product development requirements, whether by providing information, creating prototypes, or with other service.

Specialized Areas

“A three-in-one structure for satisfying our customers, based on our three pillars of creativity.

The Group comprises a trading division, Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd., and Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd. (Laboratory), which represents the group’s R&D and manufacturing divisions. Through collaboration between these three divisions across two companies, the Daiwa Kasei Group offers products, technologies, and services that exceed customers’ expectations. By sharing information across its companies, the Group is able to pursue the most cutting-edge technologies and take on the challenge of unprecedented development.

R&D Division [Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd. (Laboratory)]
Moving forward in research and development specific to the three fields connected to our core organic synthesis techniques: metal finishing, corrosion inhibition, and fine chemicals.

Manufacturing Division [Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd. (Laboratory)]
Developing a proprietary high-mix low-volume production system, using precision equipment and manufacturing technologies.

Trading Division [Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd.]
Constantly providing optimal solutions, using the strengths inherent in our manufacturing capabilities.

Specialized Technologies

Supporting our customers’ research through synthesis under contract

Global competition demands that companies pursue research and development aggressively. As experts in fine chemicals, we at the Daiwa Kasei Group put our organic synthesis and microanalysis technologies to use by offering laboratory-scale organic synthesis under contract, thus providing customers a more efficient avenue for R&D.

We synthesized various organic chemicals based on naphthaldehyde, and succeeded in creating a polymeric film base.

Naphthaldehyde compounds

Triazole compounds

Sulfonic acids compounds

R&D

The R&D Division at Daiwa Fine Chemicals Co., Ltd. (Laboratory), has opened up new and unique paths for the company, challenging us to do things that no one else has done before. We’ve focused on specific fields, identifying niche markets that few other companies are involved in, to dive deeper into our technologies and to develop unique products. We have also worked hard to create an environment that allows for the talents of each of our research personnel to shine.

Our R&D System

Creating a R&D system that understands the future

We have created an integrated research and development system that covers everything from the basic technology research that supports existing products to forward-looking technology research for applications in new areas and seed research to encourage areas with future growth potential.。

The Scope of Our R&D Work

Creating new added values where we excel

There are three groups centered on the core technologies for organic chemistry—the Plating Group, Corrosion Inhibitor Group, and Fine Chemicals Group—in addition to our Product Development Department. All are involved in advancing our foundational technologies, in diversifying our applicable technologies, and in developing products that create new values that would help open up new markets.

Plating Group

The Plating Group develops new plating solutions and plating processes in anticipation of industry needs. We remain a strong industry leader in non-cyanide silver plating and we aspire to develop products with great added value.
Corrosion Inhibitor Group
Fine Chemicals Group

Here we’re working to develop various high-performance corrosion-inhibiting materials in anticipation of customers’ future needs. The focus in recent years has shifted to developing corrosion inhibitors that are safe for the environment and people.
Product Development Department

This supremely talented group of technical specialists is charged with identifying growth markets, cooperating with other companies on product development, and acquiring new customers. Their numerous achievements include the development of a surface finishing chemical for lithium-ion batteries.。

Specialized Manufacturing Equipment

We have vacuum steam heating/cooling system which is a heat source with high accuracy of +/-1 degrees Celsius, and the uniform heating by steam enables highly accurate heating and instant and easy temperature control of the supplied heat source allows for small-lot production of a wide variety of products.

Qualification for Quality Control

“Quality Assurance Department” protects reliable quality」

We have established a consistent quality assurance system based on the international standard ISO9001. We work together with the R&D department to check the manufacturing process with the aim of consistently providing quality that our customers are familiar and satisfied with. We pay particular attention to the analysis of hazardous substances, and are working to strengthen our quality control system and improve measurement accuracy.

Qualification for Environmental Issues

We are fully equipped with various facilities such as activated sludge equipment, coagulation sedimentation towers, small dehydrators, activated carbon towers, etc., and we have taken sufficient measures to prevent pollution.

Other Features

In addition to synthesis, we are constantly working on to develop new products in the metal finishing sector, including corrosion inhibitors/finishing chemicals, with our well-equipped research facilities and excellent staff. In particular, we have concentrated on the development of environmentally friendly lead-free solder plating and non-cyanide precious metal plating, and received a Technology Award from The Surface Finishing Society of Japan for non-cyanide silver plating solution. In addition to chemicals, we process protamine and DNA extracted from salmon soft roe at our Kamaishi Factory.
