Dear KIMOTO fans,
We look forward to your continued support in 2017.

This summer, KIMOTO TECH, INC., our local subsidiary in the United States, will introduce a new compact coating machine for the first time in 30 years since the introduction of the coating machine in 1987.

The establishment of the North American factory was the long-held hope and dream of our founding president, and it was established with the intention that manufacturing in the United States, the world's largest consumer market, would lead to the development of new products that would be accepted worldwide.
After various events, we were unable to achieve our original goals for a long time, but with the determination of KIMOTO employees in the United States and around the world, we have finally introduced the third compact coating machine.

The background to the introduction of the third machine is to increase the speed of responding to new development themes received in the United States and to clarify the long-term management vision of local executives since the localization of management in 2010 (currently with zero Japanese executives).

Stay true to your original intentions.
In the 25th year since the death of our founding president, we are finally fulfilling the original intention for our expansion into the United States.

We ask for your continued support of KIMOTO this year as well.
