Leadership TeamConnecting A1,
Creating +1.Creative partnerships that offer information and extra value to our customers.
Kansai Felt Fabric started as a wholesale supplier of felts and has continually expanded its business while responding flexibly to the needs of its customers. We are developing four business areas comprising General Materials, Automotive Materials, Envirotec, and Floor Covering Materials. We supply products that make the world’s manufacturing, office, and living environments more comfortable.
Our strength lies in experience and a track record that’s proven over 85 years in business. Additionally, we were one of the first companies in the industry to develop our business overseas. In 1974, we signed an exclusive distributorship agreement with Roberts, a leading U.S. interior building materials manufacturer. And in 1982, we were appointed exclusive Japan agents for German company BWF, a major European felt manufacturer. Since then, Kansai Felt Fabric has allied each respective prominent manufacturer in the U.S. and Europe in an ongoing effort to provide our clients with state-of-the-art materials.
We also established offshore bases and a business network throughout Asia. This makes it possible for us to deliver services swiftly to the production sites of Japanese companies expanding into the region. Years of business engagement with foreign-affiliated companies has accelerated our globalization as a company. More of our employees are experiencing work and short-term study abroad, passing on knowledge to our human resources, and playing active roles as citizens of the world.
Our corporate mission, “Connecting A1, Creating +1,” guides us to serve as a better touchpoint, gathering and synthesizing diverse knowledge from across the globe and integrating it into our society. Through these endeavors, we aspire to enhance manufacturing’s appeal while continuing to be a presence that weaves “plus-one” value for all stakeholders.
Through our corporate mission and vision, we keep on striving to be the best that we can be, to earn trust and to be partners in mutual growth while carrying the legacy built by our predecessors forward into the future.
