Corporate Data

The forerunner of the next generation.
Tracing a path of enterprise, innovation, and challenge.
Our company was founded shortly after the war, shortly before Japan entered its period of high economic growth. We were convinced of the importance of resource recycling and environmental
business at a time when the terms "circular society" and "sustainable society" were not yet well-known.
We grew quickly through aggressive business development that was ahead of the times, and expanded our fields of activity around the nation and into the world. As a group of leading
companies driving the achievement of the circular economy, the ENVIPRO Group will continue to tackle our future-oriented mission of "contribute to create a sustainable society".
