Introducing our manufacturing sites.

With the aim of maintaining not only quality but also a safe environment and productivity at our production sites, we are engaged in 5S activities and other workplace improvement activities on a daily basis. Some of these activities are introduced below.

5S Activities

What is “5S”?

The generic name for the five words beginning with the S’s of “seiri,” “seiton,” “seiso,” “seiketsu,” and “shitsuke,” these refer primarily to actions that should be taken to improve and maintain the workplace environment in the manufacturing industry.

整理/Seiri

Separate what is necessary from what is unnecessary and put away what is unnecessary.

整頓/Seiton

Establish the correct placement of items so that they are available when needed.

清掃/Seisou

Constantly clean and make it easy to detect abnormalities.

清潔/Seiketsu

To create a system in which the 3Ss (Seiri, Seiton, and Seisou) can be repeated and maintained.

躾/Shitsukee

Decide on the correct way to place them and create the habit of following through with your decision.

The 5S activities are implemented to improve the productivity of the entire work site by improving quality and work efficiency, reducing defective losses, and ensuring the safety of the work environment.

Below are some of the 5S activities we have implemented.
