Furuto
Industrial Company. Ltd. was established in 1940 at Yokohama,
Japan as the first company in Japan to produce rubber-coated
raincoats.
We were also a pioneer to launch a new product such as vinyl
chloride compounds while Japan experienced the drastic change in
society and rapid after WWII.
Since then, we have produced many types of products fully
utilizing our principle skills of Mixing & Compounding.
We have developed of marketed many new products. We are proud that
we have contributed to our society through our production.
In 1988, we relocated the entire production plant to Iwaki,
Fukushima Pref. Japan. This is a versatile and futuristic plant to
cope with global structural changes.
