Chemical products are indispensable to today's society. Looking around us, it is hard to find anything that is com­pletely unrelated to chemicals. The Chemicals Business of Miyako Kagaku sells various products, such as solvents, raw materials for resins, and resin additives in such fields as paint, ink, medicine, electronic materials, and:fine chemicals. In cooperation with our affiliated companies, we also proactively promote development of and contract­ed businesses for new materials as well as environ­ment-related businesses. We accomplish this by quickly sensing the trends of our time and social needs to support industrial development.
