- Shikoku Chemicals Corporation focuses on the development, production, and distribution of an extensive portfolio of chemical goods and construction materials across Japan and various international markets. Its operations encompass a broad range of offerings designed to support diverse industries. Within its chemicals division, the company manufactures foundational inorganic chemicals such as carbon disulfide, sodium sulfate, and insoluble sulfur, which is a key component for radial tires, where it holds a significant global market share. Organic chemical products include chlorinated isocyanurates, initially mass-produced in Japan by Shikoku in 1964, which serve as disinfectants for applications in swimming pools and septic systems, alongside other chemicals vital for water hygiene. The company's advanced and specialty chemicals segment delivers high-performance solutions, including surface treatment chemicals for printed wiring boards (PWBs), such as its "Glicoat" organic solderability preservative, which holds the world's leading market position. This segment also produces various resin modifiers and curing agents, like imidazole and adduct types, and cross-linkers, which enhance properties for materials used in advanced applications such as semiconductors and high-performance adhesives. Additionally, the firm is involved in industrial chemicals, specialized pharmaceuticals, and agricultural chemicals. For the construction sector, Shikoku Chemicals offers a comprehensive range of housing materials. These include interior and exterior finishes and paving materials for various architectural needs. Their exterior product line features gates, fences, carports—including the innovative accordion gate structure developed by the company—decks, and terraces. The company further contributes to retail environments through the design, production, and installation of shutters and other shop fixtures. Beyond these core areas, Shikoku Chemicals is engaged in a variety of other services. These diverse activities span environmental solutions, providing water treatment for sewage and septic tanks, waste collection, and environmental measurement and water quality testing services. Its involvement extends to information technology, with software development and computer system management. Furthermore, the company operates restaurant franchises, engages in the sale of consumer goods, offers insurance agency services, handles packaging and transportation, and undertakes housing renovation and solar power generation projects. Guided by a philosophy of continuous creativity, the organization has recently focused on leveraging its robust chemicals segment, which has shown strong financial performance with record revenue and profit in recent periods. The company was established in 1947 and maintains its headquarters in Marugame, Japan.
