Corporate Profile (PDF 4.8MB) Corporate profile 1 Message from the President We will promote ESG management as a unified group and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society. “Drawing on more than a century of expertise in the development and fabrication of advanced materials, we will contribute to the realization of a sustainable society through continuous technological innovation.” This is the Corporate Philosophy of the Furukawa Electric Group. From our founding in 1884 through to the present day, the conveying, connecting, and storage of energy, information, and heat have been the pillars of our business, and through the four core technologies of metals, polymers, photonics, and high- frequency, we are developing a wide range of products around the world in fields of infrastructure such as telecommunications and energy, as well as in the fields of automotive components and electronics. The DNA of the Furukawa Electric Group comes from the words of our founder, Ichibei Furukawa: “value employees, value customers, value new technology, and contribute to society”. These ideas are linked to the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) adopted by the United Nations, and I believe that it is ESG management itself, which gives care and consideration for the environment, society, and governance. Our daily operations are guided by the “three valuables” spoken of by Ichibei Furukawa. Last year, we experienced a grave and unprecedented situation in which economic activity stagnated around the world due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic. For us, fiscal 2021 will be “the year of building a powerful company”, during which we will further enhance our ability to respond to changes and prepare to achieve the targets of the next medium-term management plan, which will start in fiscal 2022. Furthermore, by providing Furukawa Electric Group technologies, products, and services in an open, agile, and innovative manner, we aim to protect the health of people and the social infrastructure they live in, to support growth, and to realize a truly affluent and sustainable society. Through these activities, we will meet the expectations of our stakeholders. President Corporate Profile Company name: Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd.

  • Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey
    06-ORD 70H-002AA 7 Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey - 2005 Survey - September 2006 Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) Preface The survey on “Japanese manufacturing affiliates in Europe and Turkey” has been conducted 22 times since the first survey in 1983*. The latest survey, carried out from January 2006 to February 2006 targeting 16 countries in Western Europe, 8 countries in Central and Eastern Europe, and Turkey, focused on business trends and future prospects in each country, procurement of materials, production, sales, and management problems, effects of EU environmental regulations, etc. The survey revealed that as of the end of 2005 there were a total of 1,008 Japanese manufacturing affiliates operating in the surveyed region --- 818 in Western Europe, 174 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 16 in Turkey. Of this total, 291 affiliates --- 284 in Western Europe, 6 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 1 in Turkey --- also operate R & D or design centers. Also, the number of Japanese affiliates who operate only R & D or design centers in the surveyed region (no manufacturing operations) totaled 129 affiliates --- 125 in Western Europe and 4 in Central and Eastern Europe. In this survey we put emphasis on the effects of EU environmental regulations on Japanese manufacturing affiliates. We would like to express our great appreciation to the affiliates concerned for their kind cooperation, which have enabled us over the years to constantly improve the survey and report on the results. We hope that the affiliates and those who are interested in business development in Europe and/or Turkey will find this report useful.

    Thoughts on the New Year .....1 MMC Activities...................2 Study, Research and Dissemination Activities ..3 Project Update ...................4 Column............................5 Overseas Trends.................6 Member’s Profiles ..............8 Thoughts on the New Year As we greet the year 2009, I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year, and to share some thoughts at the beginning of this new year. The past year was a turbulent one for the Japanese economy. Increases in the price of crude oil and rare materials, which had been a concern for the past few years, continued apace. This put pressure on company operations and people’s daily lives, and highlighted the all too well known fragility of the industrial infrastructure and lifeline of Japan, a country with a dearth of energy resources and raw materials. Then financial instability on a worldwide scale occurred, caused by the long-feared collapse of subprime loans in the United States. The resulting turbulence seems unlikely to be resolved easily. Viewing these trends, what I feel anew is the peril posed by an economy that is not tethered to reality. As an industry, Japan must have creative products with an appeal unrivaled by those of other countries, constituting an economic foundation that is based on actual circumstances. Tamotsu Nomakuchi The Micromachine Center (MMC) conducts a variety of activities aimed at establishing key Director, technologies relating to micromachines, MEMS and other micro/nano fields and providing support for Micromachine Center the continued growth of the MEMS industry, as well as strengthening the international competitiveness of Japan’s domestic industry and contributing to the creation of the abundant society of the future.
