Toppan - Meeting the Challenges of the 21st Century
More than some 500 years after Johannes Gutenberg's invention of the printing press, the printing industry is poised to make another major impact on our social culture. Knowledge and skills accumulated by the printing industry have given rise to a host of key state-of-the-art technologies. These include network-compatible security technologies developed to prevent counterfeiting of securities products, microprocessing- and nano- technologies crucial for fabricating semiconductor components used in prepress processes, and digital image processing technologies for reproducing colors and images. Such knowledge and skills are expected to play a central role in shaping our culture in the 21st century.

Since its establishment in 1900, Toppan has built up advanced printing technologies and know-how while deepening ties between information, lifestyles, and culture. We have aggressively provided technologies, products, and services that always keep us at the forefront of the industry. Our numerous successes include leading-edge digital image processing technologies, the top share in the world market for color filters, and the largest scale digital contents distribution service in Japan. We take heed of fusing information transmission with communication and maximizing business potentials of our business segments. For this reason, we will continue to seize new challenges in both products and services.

The Company innovated and developed its core operations centered on printing to establish five new business fields geared for the 21st century. Toppan is pursuing even greater advancement worthy of its reputation as a leading company in the information communications industry. Also, we further promote our "customer first" policy. Building sound partnerships with our customers, we provide high-value-added products, systems, and services, for which we utilize our vibrant knowledge and technology and emphasize our comprehensive quality assurance policy to supply "works" instead of products. Here, we will draw on our strengths in planning, marketing, technology, and research and development.

As a major supporter of information and culture, Toppan will earn the trust of customers in our quest to foster interactive and prosperous lifestyles.
