Company Profile
Message from President & CEO
Our company was founded in 1980 as a specialized producer of Microsyringes. Now we manufacture and sell not only Microsyringes, but also other products for the aspiration and discharge of liquids and gases, from pipes to nozzles. Since its founding, our company's philosophy has been to serve and contribute to society. Our products act as a pipeline between the company and our customers, and to society as a whole. In that sense, we believe that supplying our customers with high quality products and good service are the best way to ensure an open, strong pipeline. Ito Coporation's products are used in a wide variety of fields from analytical chemistry to medicine, pharmaceuticals, food products, the enviroment, semiconductors, dyes and more. We feel confident in our own small way that we are making a contribution to society. We are keenly aware of our responsibility to provide both products that meet the needs of the times and timely service. Although the company is still small, our high ideals and collective youthful force give us the drive to handle advanced technology. We have a very dynamic corporate culture. We obtained ISO 9001 certification in 1994. Our goal is to devote further efforts to providing a stable supply of high quality products and to apply intensive effort to the development of new products. There could be no greater reward, if we can promote trust and progress together with our customers. We want to thank you for your continued support in the future. |
