Research and Development

"Working on the theme of symbiosis between people and the environment, the Technical Centers contribute to the development of an increasingly diverse and complex industrial society where we are engaged in creative research and development, including the development of new technologies and enhancement of fundamental technologies.
In particular, we develop new creative value by working on the development of a wide range of product technologies while adding a number of related technologies to the fundamental technologies we have accumulated so far. The Technical Centers, as a source of diverse technologies, play a central role in supporting Yushiro's well-established technology, including overseas support and technical follow-up to customers."

Facilities Facilities

The Technical Centers, with a total floor area of more than 10,000 m2, are well-equipped facilities that are truly worthy of being called Yushiro's "Technology Hall of Fame". As centers of technology, people, and information, the Technical Centers provide an environment that allows our researchers to maximize their creativity.

Main Research Building

Main Research Building

The Main Research Building is equipped with advanced experimental and research equipment, including nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometers and inductively coupled plasma emission spectrophotometers, where a wide range of research is conducted, from fundamental research, such as flask-scale sample analysis and functional verification, to actual product verification. It plays a central role in the development of next-generation products.

Test Building

Test Building

The test building was built with the concept of "a highly functional space that provides a comfortable working environment as well as a spacious room to accommodate a variety of research themes", and is equipped with large machine tools for testing. Experiments assuming the actual usage environment of Yushiro products are repeated there, and valuable data is accumulated every day.

Amenity Facilities

Amenity Facilities

The all-glass lobby of the test building is an amenity space that welcomes visitors with a relaxing atmosphere. The lobby of the main research building is also spacious and reminiscent of a museum. There is also a lounge for employees to relax and a library as well.
