Message from the President
Machines and devices are used to solve numerous problems and challenges that occur all around the world. These have played major roles in a variety of situations in the modern history: they have served to make people’s lives more convenient and affluent, to liberate people from heavy labor, to protect people from disasters or help them restore and reconstruct disaster-stricken areas, and to protect the precious planet we live on. I believe their roles will only continue to become increasingly important going forward.
Since our founding in 1965, TAGAMI EX has manufactured products and components related to machines and devices. Our business has grown, little by little, with the support of each of our many customers and suppliers. Starting from our origins producing and repairing thin sheet metal products, TAGAMI EX has gradually expanded our operations into other fields of manufacturing, such as thick plate welding, machining, designing, and assembly, and we have been involved in a wide variety of fields, including machine tools, sheet metal and forging machinery, construction machinery, and environmental machinery.
Our mission is to contribute to developing infrastructure around the world and conserving the environment through the development, manufacture, sales, and servicing of these machines and devices. To do so, we work hard each and every day to develop new technologies and methods to continue to be highly regarded by our customers.
We are motivated by the motto “MUKYOKU” -- The Enduring Quest for Creativity and Improvement -- as we focus our professional spirit on producing each and every one of our products before sending it out into the world.
We will never give up on our efforts to create a great future.
