Message from the President

Since 1952, when we started to develop polyslider tape, we have created a variety of products using plastic molding technology and expanded our business into industrial parts, home appliances, automobiles, and medical devices.

Since our founding, we have always done our utmost to meet our customers' needs, maintaining high quality, implementing innovative technologies, reducing costs by rigorously enhancing productivity, and establishing a production system that adheres strictly to deadlines, and have consistently delivered safe and reliable products and customer satisfaction.

In particular, we have continuously improved our lancets for blood collection, one of our core products, to reduce pain for patients, while meeting both strict quality control and stable production capacity requirements. Our lancets are used by patients and in medical facilities around the world.

Asahi Polyslider will continue to take on the challenge of developing new technologies and products, aiming to be a trusted partner for all of our customers.
