• Message from the President

  • Katsuhiko Hara, President of Seiwa Industrial Corporation

  • Our company has, since its founding, focused its attention on the potential of stainless steel, and has manufactured a variety of welded products using stainless materials.
    Now, the societal environment around us is changing at a bewildering pace, and the social responsibility and functionality required of our products is growing and becoming more complex every day. Our company has established welding technique as its core competency, and consistently striven to better our welding process. It is my hope that, through application and use of our many years of experience and the latest materials and manufacturing techniques, we can provide not simply welded goods but goods with a real, new added value.
    I desire for our company to be the kind of company that turns today's problems into tomorrow's possibilities, the kind of company whose growth and improvement is truly visible to all around.
    In the society in which we live, no one can live on their own. We are all affected by many people, and even unintentionally influence those around us. Our company will strive to treasure its bonds with all of you, make every effort to continue creating products that serve the good of society, and work to share the joy we have received.
    I hope we can look forward to your continued support and encouragement in the years to come.

    Katsuhiko Hara, President of Seiwa Industrial Corporation
