We are determined to take on any difficulty as a fresh market theme to tackle and quickly address it. Since this positive attitude is described as “open kick,” its abbreviation OK was integrated into our company name. With the dawn of the new century, we made a fresh start toward the new millennium with a renewed focus on active application of the information technology to our resin colorants and development of new materials for those colorants.
Tackling environmental problems and providing the services (wisdom) fine-tuned to local users with a light-footed mobility (responding capability), we do our best to meet customers’ demands by developing products and human resources that match the needs of the times. |
