In order to solve environmental problems such as global warming, and to realize a recycling-oriented society, the company has created various technologies in the environmental and energy fields such as waste treatment and water treatment, with “environment” and “energy” as the main themes, and is developing a plant engineering business.

2. HISTORY

The company is an enterprise established in 1938/6 by founder Taguma Tsuneyoshi, who was honored in 1930 as Japan's top ten inventors in the Meiji and Taisho periods for the purpose of manufacturing and selling boilers. After that, it inherited the philosophy of “steam tank hokoku (contributing to society through boilers),” which is the founding spirit, developed a business with combustion technology as the core, and was listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (hereafter, Tokyo Stock Exchange) and Osaka Stock Exchange in 1949. It also expanded into environmental equipment divisions such as garbage incineration treatment plants and water treatment plants in 1958, and Japan's first continuous garbage incineration plant was delivered to Osaka in 1963. A remote monitoring/operation support base “Solution Lab” was established in 2019, and they are also focusing on after-sales service. In 2022/4, due to the review of the market segment of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, it transitioned from the first section of the market to the prime market.
