PHILOSOPHY

MANAGEMENT PHILOSOPHY (Management policy) : “Symbiosis”

  “Symbiosis” means to prosper hand in hand with our business partners, employees, and local communities. We value the happiness of our employees, who are rich in individuality, and who can work with mutual respect. The base of our philosophy is “Sanpo-yoshi,” which means “Good for the other person, good for me, and good for everyone. All of our employees will practice our management philosophy, grow, and strive to achieve even greater heights as a company.


CORPORATE PHILOSOPHY (Significance of Existence): “Contribute to society through continuous automation of powder equipment that supports our daily lives”

 Up to the present, we have been providing new value to society by facing “powder” one by one in order to meet various needs for continuous automation. We will continue to contribute to society as a behind-the-scenes player in our customers' production lines.


FMS Quality Basic Policy

1. To provide quality that lives up to the trust of our customers, we will establish activity goals and programs and continuously improve our management system.

2. We will provide products and services that accurately meet your needs.

3. We will improve our overall management quality by having all employees participate in activities, improve their own skills, and apply them in practice.

Message from CEO

 Since our founding, we have consistently provided solutions in the feeding and mixing processes of powders and granules in various industries as a technology-oriented company. As a result, we managed to have contributed to the development of key industries in Japan and overseas with our technology for continuously feeding powders specialized in high precision feeding and uniform continuous mixing.

 We have developed our own unique technology for precision weighing of powders, which was said to be an extremely difficult technology to achieve worldwide, and we have continued on our path of originality by making possible the continuous automation of mixing, humidifying, kneading, dissolving, emulsifying, and other processes through our many inventions.
 Our technology and know-how have been highly evaluated as equipment that enables “quality improvement,” “cost reduction,” and “energy saving” in many industries such as chemical, ceramic, pharmaceutical, food, environmental, and civil engineering.

 We will continue to value our management philosophy of “Symbiosis” and respond to changes such as manpower shortage at production sites, quality control required in the globalized society, the arrival of AI and IoT society, and continue to grow stronger as a company that supports manufacturing through “continuous automation” of powder feeding and mixing processes.
