Our Group’s business is the manufacture and sale of synthetic leather products. Ultrafabrics Inc., a U.S.-based company, gathers various needs from customers across a wide range of industries from office furniture to automobiles and aircraft. Daiichi Kasei Co., Ltd. in Japan commercializes and produces products using Japanese technology. We deliver more than 1,000 products to customers around the world under our flagship brands, including ULTRALEATHER® and BRISA®.

 

Although these products have been generally referred to as “synthetic leather,” we do not develop and manufacture products with the aim of making our products similar to genuine leather. Our customers demand feel, design and functionality that cannot be matched by genuine leather, and our Group’s products introduce new materials that are created in line with these needs. Nowadays, our products have gained recognition from the perspective of sustainability due to their animal-free, lightweight, and durable properties.

 

Three years have passed since our transformation into a holding company structure by forming a group with Ultrafabrics Inc., and we formulated a Mission Statement for the Ultrafabrics Group. While respecting the founding philosophies and slogans of each subsidiary, the Group’s Philosophy has been established to raise a common understanding for all employees of the Ultrafabrics Group and emphasize the significance of the Group’s existence and norms to be observed, aiming to unite all of us to move forward in the same direction.

 

The main phrase “Comfort is Pride - Comfortable and conscious in every way- ” is not limited to the texture and feel of our products, but also conveys the message that we should take pride in demonstrating a sense of comfort and kindness all people involved with our Group, from suppliers to end users, shareholders, and local residents, as well as the global environment. Each of our employees is tasked with promoting our business with the aim of being a company that contributes not only to the development of our Group, but also to the sustainability of society as a whole.
