Today the environments in which people and companies find themselves are rapidly changing due to the trend towards globalization and rising social uncertainties. We believe it is becoming increasingly important to establish a strong footing from which the NOF Group, while working closely with society, can achieve sustainable growth while appropriately responding to these changes so that it may work towards creating new value through steadfast innovation.In order to realize the corporate philosophy, "The NOF Group is dedicated to contributing to mankind and society through the creation of new value from the biosphere to outer space.", we are carving out a new age of value as we develop our multifaceted businesses centering on our eight business segments by: fixing our gaze on the changing market and evolving technology, maintaining strong foresight, and being the innovators.As a member of society, we will earnestly push forward our endeavors to fulfill our corporate social responsibility (CSR) such as protecting the natural environment and ensuring health and safety while placing the utmost importance on compliance. For the benefit of all our stakeholders, we will strive to maintain our positions as an advancing company and a trusted company, which enhances our corporate value.To mark the 70th anniversary of its founding, the Company changed its Japanese trading name to Nichiyu Kabushikigaisha, but its English name will remain NOF CORPORATION. Looking forward, the NOF Group will continue its efforts to expand its business beyond its existing framework and enter a broader range of fields.With a new name and reinforced vision, we ask all stakeholders for their understanding and support for our future business endeavors.
