Message from President
President Mikio Kobayashi
Japan Kanigen Co., Ltd. has been getting warm support and trust from everyone for over half a century ever since it was established in 1955 as the first company to process and manufacture electroless plating in Japan.
The company name Kanigen was adopted by combining the first syllable from the words C(K)atalytic, Nickel and Generation.
The name Kanigen plating is still used today as the synonym for electroless plating and it is possible to plate various types of material and components with various forms. Furthermore the "high performance plating" has superior qualities in thickness uniformity, corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance.
Electroless plating intends to extend the life of the material itself and further improve the material’s characteristics. By doing so it aims to optimize the use of limited resources. We take pride in our electroless plating technology, which has been carrying out the role of being the core technology that has supported the development of industrials and economies since its establishment.
In 2002 the company joined the Nihon Parkerizing Group, which is the country’s biggest in the field of surface treatment.
By pushing forward to combine our superior surface treatment technology with a commitment to research and development, a contribution towards further progress and enhancement of the plating technology can be made. In addition to this, the company objectives to reconstruct the global environment and the social overhead capital are pursued.
We are grateful for the support we currently receive from everyone and we look forward to its continuation in the future.
