Craftz Co., Ltd.
Founded in 1933, Craftz Co., Ltd. has established itself as a globally recognized flexible packaging converter. The Craftz Group, including its domestic and international subsidiaries, operates six factories - four in Tochigi, Niigata, Nagano and Saitama prefectures in Japan and two in Bangkok, Thailand. The company specializes in providing flexible packaging for a variety of consumer products, including food, confectionery, pet food, pharmaceuticals, and more, serving markets in both Japan and Thailand. Flexible packaging is characterized by the use of materials such as polyethylene and polypropylene, which allow for versatile shaping. The film-based nature of this packaging offers advantages such as light weight, elasticity and ease of processing, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. In the context of ESG considerations, the shift to flexible packaging is a significant trend. Amid the global drive to reduce the use of plastics, flexible packaging is emerging as an important substitute for molded products and rigid packaging, helping to reduce their use. In addition, its superior gas barrier properties are essential for maintaining food quality and safety. Its role in reducing food loss and transportation costs adds to its importance, with continued strong demand expected in the future.

The Company Group operates in three main areas of business (water purifier business, water sprinkler business, and dies & molds business), and has factories in Japan and Vietnam, in addition to sales offices in Japan and Australia. In the water purifier business, the Company Group pioneered the faucet integrated water purifier with the launch of the “Mizu-Kobo” in 1999, which has one of the highest adoption rates in new condominiums in Japan, and has contributed to make Takagi Co., Ltd. one of the best-known companies in the water purifier industry. In the water sprinkler business, it also pioneered the market with the launch in 1980 of the “Nozzle Five”, a sprinkler nozzle with five different ways of spraying water. As a result, it has established the No.1 position in the domestic market by offering a wide range of customer-oriented products. Its dies and molds business has important functions mainly for in-house use, contributing to the speedy and flexible manufacturing of the Takagi Group’s products. From an ESG perspective, the use of water purifying cartridges is expected to reduce negative impacts on the environment. The Takagi Group believes its products contribute to a sustainable society by reducing the use of disposable plastic containers and bottled water, thereby also decreasing the logistics associated with these products
