Choshu Industry

Our expertise in these areas is incorporated into development in the residential field. Having started out as a manufacturer of residential equipment and systems, we have acquired leading-edge technology through corporate tie-ups.

This expertise has provided the basis for our expansion into the fields of FA and mechatronics. It has also been utilized in the ongoing development of the residential equipment and systems, resulting in unique products and solutions. This demonstrates our curiosity toward ...
