To be a bridge between the global environment and people - that is AMBIC's dream.
President's Message
Since our foundation in 1917, we have been producing felts for almost a whole century and nonwoven fabrics for nearly half a century under the name of Japan Felt Industrial Co., Ltd. Through supply of these products, we have been contributing to improvement of people's living and development of industries as a foremost all-round manufacturer in this field in Japan. In addition, we have readily responded to globalization and been expanding our production bases and sales areas overseas.
Our name, AMBIC, originated from a Latin word "AMBITUS" (meaning Environment) and an English word "TECHNOLOGY", signifies our commitment to protection of the environment and determination to be further globalized as a technology-oriented company in the 21st Century. Our logotype symbolizes the imager of a bridge between the environment and people as well as our expectation for the future.
Furthermore, we will positively promote collaboration with companies (both in the same and other industries), governments and academics over the world and incorporate their distinguished materials, products, innovative technologies and advanced manufacturing equipment into our core technology and develop unique composite products to meet various needs of our customers. With the theme of "Be gentle with people and the earth", we at AMBIC will continue to devote ourselves to development and supply of such products that will help protect the global environment. All of us are making utmost efforts to serve our customers with products and services of high quality and reasonable prices in a wider range of fields. Your continued patronage and support will be highly appreciated.
