impress our customers with our character, reliability, and open-hearted nature.
Since its establishment in 1952, Busyu Kogyo has been manufacturing sheet metal parts and heat exchanger pipes for the automotive market.
As part of the current transition from an age of mass production to one of high-mix, low-volume production, we produce production plans based on production equipment designs suited for each age, so our approach to manufacturing can support a variety of products. As a company of craftspeople that respects the autonomy of our employees, we have established a structure in which each individual is responsible for everything from production management to manufacturing and inspection. We aim to continue innovating within this framework.
In August 2016, we opened an office in Silicon Valley, one of the world’s centers of advanced technology and global business. We will take up the challenge of even greater advancement in quality and technology, in new areas such as AI and the Internet of Things.
As we approach the 70th anniversary of our founding, our “Attack V70” activities are underway, and our employees are more dedicated than ever to impressing our customers with our quality, low costs, fast turnaround, and product development capabilities. Going forward, we will continue to aim for global outreach that is rooted in Japan.

To fulfill our civic and corporate responsibilities,
we engage in various work-related social activities based on our “Attack V” initiatives.
Busyu Kogyo aims to pursue its business activities in an environmentally sustainable manner, and encourages all of its employees to use their creativity and ingenuity to develop sustainability initiatives. Our philosophy, as a member of the local community, is to emphasize positive social relations while serving the community through manufacturing.
As we engage in metal pipe machining and sheet metal processing, and as we develop, produce and sell products, we prioritize protection of the environment and promote economic development through the following activities.
- Recognizing the environmental impact associated with our activities, products, and services, we will continue, as much as possible, to prioritize environmental sustainability, to set environmental goals and objectives, and to prevent pollution. We seek to continually improve our methods of promoting the three environmental Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle).
- All employees undergo environmental awareness training and learn the principles of environmental sustainability. We also ask our partner companies for their understanding and cooperation in these efforts.
- We strive to build healthy relationships with the local community by actively participating in local environmental sustainability initiatives.
- We work to preserve the environment by complying with relevant laws, regulations, ordinances and other requirements, and to the extent possible, by developing our own voluntary technical and economic standards and rules.
- As a production plant, we will continue to work to reduce productivity loss and failure, cut paperwork, and take other efficiency measures.
- This environmental policy is released to everyone who works at our company or on its behalf, as well as to the general public.
