As a trading company responding flexibly to change for more than 130 years.
We will continue to provide
better values for a prosperous society.

Maruzen Chemicals Co., Ltd. was founded in 1895 as a chemical trading company, and over the past 130 years, we have responded to a wide range of social needs and customer requests. In the turbulent transition of the Meiji, Taisho, Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa periods of Japan, we have provided products that have been useful to everyone and supported people’s daily lives in response to the demands of rapidly advancing science and technology and a changing society. We have grown today into a multi-functional trading company that can contribute to domestic and international markets in various business areas, with a focus on chemicals.

Based on the broad network, know-how, and expertise we have built up through our business development, we create new value as an infrastructure for commerce by connecting various things worldwide and contributing to the world’s happiness. This is the mission of Maruzen Chemicals. We are proud that we have expanded and developed our business over the past century and that we continue to fulfill our mission because of the penetration of our corporate motto: “We uphold integrity grounded in sound management.” Maruzen Chemicals places great importance on facing changes in the world and customer needs and acting sincerely to realize truly useful products.

Although the shape of business changes with the times, the company attitude that drives business and people who support the activities remains constant. We live in a society where things are changing rapidly, and the future is uncertain and difficult to predict.
That is why we are convinced that we must make the wisdom and technology of our predecessors and the trust they have built into the form demanded by the times, with sincerity and steadfastness, our unwavering axis.
We will continue serving you by pursuing the affluence required by society’s next generation and the happiness of people’s lives.

We look forward to your continued guidance and encouragement.

President Daisuke Yanagihara
