The Material Journey

01
Textile

Nagoya, mid-20th century

Where it began

Our story begins on the looms of a textile mill, where precision and material discipline were first woven into the company.

02
Polymer

Established 1965

Automotive heartland rising

As Aichi became the center of Japan's automotive industry, we moved from fiber to resin — engineering plastics built for exacting tolerances.

03
Mobility

Automotive components

Today

Our PEEK and PPS super engineering plastics ride inside vehicles from some of the world's most trusted manufacturers, built lighter as electrification accelerates.

What's next

Looking ahead

With six decades of materials expertise, we're now applying the same precision to durable components for robotics.

COMPANY HISTORY

Six Decades of Material Discipline

What began as a textile mill in Nagoya grew, alongside the rise of Aichi Prefecture as Japan's automotive heartland, into Nissin Kogyo — established in 1965 and now a manufacturer trusted for its engineering plastics and precision automotive components. That same material discipline now shapes the plastics and lightweight parts inside vehicles built by some of the industry's most recognized names.
