President's Message

In 1959, our former president, Tokio Itoh, established a film-printing factory for lightweight packaging materials in Osaka. Subsequent years saw our move to our present location,
with gravure printing for the building materials industry becoming our mainstay.


Carrying on in the creative spirit of our founder, we have taken as our motto the words
sincerity, service and trust, earning a stable reputation in the field of gravure printing
throughout the world.

gStriving to create a harmony between people and nature,
while maintaining
pride in our creative spirit as a manufacturer"
