Business
Central Glass Co., Ltd. and its affiliated companies are actively involved in the creation and distribution of glass and chemical solutions for a diverse global clientele, spanning Japan, North America, Europe, and various international regions. The organization operates through two core divisions: its expansive Glass Business and its specialized Chemicals Business. Within the Glass segment, the company manufactures a broad spectrum of products, including advanced architectural glass known for properties like sound insulation, lamination, enhanced security, tempering, fire resistance, superior transparency, and energy-efficient designs, alongside anti-fog mirror technology. It also provides sophisticated automotive glass, encompassing laminated, tempered, UV-filtering, privacy-enhancing, antenna-integrated, IR-blocking, water-repellent, and sound-dampening variants, in addition to panoramic roof glass and integrated module windows. The division further supplies precision flat glass utilized in information and electronics industries, as well as high-performance glass fiber and glass wool materials. The Chemicals segment delivers a wide range of offerings, such as fluorochemicals including next-generation refrigerants like HFO-1233zd(E), CELEFIN 1233Z (HFO-1233zd(Z)), and ZEM-SCREEN (HFO-1234ze(E)), alongside HFC-245fa. This business also produces hydrofluoric acid, polyaluminum chloride for water treatment, and a comprehensive suite of fine chemicals that feature aromatic and aliphatic compounds, chiral molecules, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and its derivatives, various monomers, fluorine resins, and specialized reagents. Moreover, the company extends its portfolio to agricultural products like Cera-coatR and NPK and NK compound fertilizers, alongside microbial control agents and crucial materials for lithium-ion batteries and power semiconductors. Established in 1936, the company was initially known as Ube Soda Industry Co., Ltd., later adopting the name Central Glass Co., Ltd. in 1963. Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Central Glass has recently undertaken strategic business restructuring, including the formation of Central Glass Products Co., Ltd. in April 2023 to consolidate its domestic architectural and automotive glass operations for renewed growth and profitability. The company also unveiled its VISION 2030, a medium-term management plan aiming for substantial operating profit and return on equity by focusing on expanding specialty products and strengthening essential offerings.
