ABOUT KYOKUTO

Kyokuto Kaihatsu has constructed well equipped production bases throughout Japan and established production systems that are closely tied to customers and communities in order to efficiently produce a broad spectrum of products and to promptly and attentively respond to the diverse needs of the customers.

They also manufacture various hydraulic equipment and machine parts; as they develop new products, it has been a great advantage to have the production technology and know-how of manufacturing functional parts, which are the heart of products.

Getting ideas from requirements of customers, markets, and times, we check up our R&D concepts from various perspectives such as design, sales, production, and services, to refine them into a development theme. Once the theme is decided, we proceed to the design to materialize the theme and the production of prototypes. To develop high quality products, we use computers to perform structural analysis and conduct many rounds of various tests on the prototypes.

“High Quality,” “High Technologies,” and “High Reliability” are keywords of Kyokuto Kaihatsu’s plan to developing products for international markets. The company plans on becoming a truly global company by offering special purpose vehicles not only from our production bases in Japan but also from overseas bases to meet the needs of various countries in the world.
