Asahi Kasei Group is a comprehensive chemical manufacturer founded in 1922.

Taking "to realize a better life for people, it is necessary to provide an abundance of the best living materials at low prices" as its entrepreneurial mission, Asahi Kasei was the first in Japan to successfully synthesize ammonia using hydrogen from water electrolysis through the Casale method, and has expanded from synthetic chemicals and chemical fiber businesses Get started. Since then, Asahi Kasei has adapted to Japan's economic development and social and environmental changes, actively promoted business diversification, adjusted its business structure in a timely manner, and has grown to this day. Today, we conduct business in three major segments: the "Materials" field consisting of textiles, chemicals, and electronic materials businesses; the "Housing" field consisting of housing and building materials businesses; and the "Health" field consisting of medicines, medical care, and first aid businesses.

The Asahi Kasei Group's various products, technologies and services can create new social value for the realization of a clean environment and energy society and a healthy, comfortable and secure longevity society. By leveraging the diversity of businesses and human resources accumulated through the Group's diversification process, we will actively promote innovation on a global scale and continue to "imagine tomorrow and build the future."
