Proactive development of strategic products In the mature chlor-alkali business, too, we can distinguish ourselves from rival manufacturers through unique strengths. We have production bases for each of Japan’s three major economic centers: Tsurumi Soda serves the Kanto (Tokyo) area, the Tokushima Plant on Shikoku covers the Kansai (Osaka) area, while the Nagoya Plant serves Chubu, Japan’s third-largest urban conglomeration. These bases will raise our profile as a reliable electrolysis-industry supplier of chlor-alkali products that supports the industrial bases of all regions of Japan. In addition, we will leverage other proprietary strengths: our gas-dispersion electrolysis technologies for energy-saving processes, our leadership in production capacity in Japan for synthetic hydrochloric acid, and our special-grade water purification chemicals such as sodium hypochlorite. Meanwhile, responding to concerns over treatment of ballast water from oceangoing vessels following a global toughening of restrictions in this area, Toagosei has partnered with JFE Engineering Corporation to develop ballast water treatment agents and systems. We plan to begin supplying proprietary treatment agents to global markets. Strengthening the fundamentals of the industrial gas business We aim to become the most profitable industrial gas supplier in the Chubu (Nagoya) region, by creating a more efficient business model and stepping up marketing. Looking ahead, we are also considering further upgrading our state-of-the-art industrial gas production facilities.
