A message from the CEO
We make the world
more interesting through calcium
The Company has developed a wide range of products using lime, starting with slaked lime for plaster, a traditional building material, through to ultra-pure calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide for medical and reagent use, special metal oxides and agrochemical ingredients.
In addition, with the aim of revitalising the agricultural sector, which it is deeply involved in through lime products, and its contributions to local communities, the company has developed an agricultural support system as well as launching a 'breeding business' to support the cultivation and sale of crops.
In 2010, a new tomato variety, Sweetear, was developed, and in 2016, Inoue Winery was established to brew grapes for wine within the group.
Since its foundation in 1884, Inoue Calcium Corporation has repeatedly taken on many challenges and has continued to grow to become the company it is today.
We believe that this is because we are rooted in the importance of three things: the potential of our products and services, the aspirations of each and every employee, and the hopes of the local community and the world at large.
Potential, aspiration and hope - these are all words that suggest the future. In other words, we believe that the future can only be carved out if we have potential, aspiration and hope.
And the history built and carved by our predecessors is like the foundation of the company.
That foundation is always there for us to look back on, and it is because of this solid base, for which we have enourmous gratitude, that we are able to look to the future.
The world will continue to change at an accelerating pace in the future.
We too will face a phase in the near future when we will be forced to make major changes.
In order to be a company that "Can look forward to", we strive to continue to take on various challenges so that we remain a company that can contribute to the world, even during such difficult times.
We sincerely hope that you will continue to support us in the future.
Inoue Calcium Corporation
