Factory tour of Nirayama elementary school

December 25, 2017

On December 11, 2017, as a contribution to the local community, we held a factory tour for 107 3rd graders of Nirayama elementary school.
Students came to our factory, as part of their classes learning about "work at a factory", and they were amazed at our factory and machine movements that they have never seen before. They listened to our employee's explanation and took notes with enthusiasm.
We hope that this factory tour will make students interested in manufacturing and they will become great engineers who support not only Shizuoka Prefecture but also the world in the future.

2017 GLOBAL USUI FAMILY FESTIVAL

December 12, 2017

On November 25, 2017, at Axis Katsuragi Nagaoka Hall, USUI Co., Ltd. held the GLOBAL USUI FAMILY FESTIVAL 2017 for its employees and their families. With the theme of“Global USUI - Connecting to the Future, Creating Connections,” the objective of the festival was to deepen the participants' understanding of the company as it expands globally by experiencing the appeal of USUI for themselves.
Blessed by fine weather, the festival attracted almost 1,000 participants, who listened to improvement case study presentations from three overseas and two domestic bases. The audience listened enthusiastically to the presentations, apparently comparing the content about overseas production bases to their own workplaces.
The stage show in the afternoon included performers such as impersonators and bands. Various booths set up around the venue included a craft corner, a dress-up corner with ethnic costumes from around the world, and a display corner presenting the cultures of the different countries in which USUI has bases. There was also a massive raffle and a range of other events. With so much on offer, the employees and their families all found something they could enjoy.
