Manufacture's Feature
Nissei Chemical Industry was established in 1960, as a member of the Asahi Chemical (Asahi Kasei) Group, with the task of producing, as first in the world, dying improver (sodium Methallyl sulfonate) for acrylic fibers. Since then, the company has supplied demand on both the Japanese and world markets as a general manufacturer of sulfonate monomers.Through good business relations with many companies including Asahi Kasei, we have focused on the development and production of various types of materials and intermediates in diverse fields, in order to meet a wide range of needs.
In anticipation of the 21st century, the company changed the name to ASAHI KASEI FINECHEM CO., LTD. and is now posed to take a new step forward.
We will be positively involved with new businesses together with Asahi Kasei Corporation and at the same time, will pursue refinement of products such as specialty chemicals and intermediates making the best of our mobility as an expert of organic chemical synthesis.
We will do our best to improve experimental synthesis and production technologies and to develop functional materials that satisfy user requirements. At the same time we enforce through quality control that places the customer first. As an expert in specialty chemicals, we will take the initiative in implementing changes of the world.
We have been concentrating our efforts on development of the various types pf
products in the field of fibers, electronic components and pharmaceuticals,
contributing to the fruitful life of people. Our specialty fields are
sulfonations using various sulfonating materials such as sulfulic anhydride,
fuming sulfuric acid, sodium sulfite and other sulfonating agents, oxidation,
reduction, polymerization and esterification. We always challenge to with
flexible ideas for advancing fine chemical technology. 
The Development-Production Center turns to a great repertoire of achievements and the latest advanced technology to meet various needs from polymers to meet various needs from polymers to pharmaceuticals.
The Nobeoka Plant is outfitted with the latest equipment and facilities.
Expansion is targeting the pharmaceutical field through advanced synthesis.
