Business Details

This is KFC's founding business, built on two pillars: sales of construction materials such as Post-installed Anchors and completed construction work such as Seismic Retrofitting Work and Safety Facility Construction. It serves both public sector and private clients, differentiating itself through high value-added technologies such as its proprietary Shear Reinforcement RMA Method. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), sales to external customers were ¥8,140 million, making it a core segment accounting for approximately 31.9% of total group sales.

Recent Overview

Sales flat as railway-related seismic demand leveled off, while profit declined significantly

In the Fastener Business for FY2026 (ending March 2026), sales to external customers were ¥8,140 million (down 0.3% year on year), remaining nearly flat. For the mainstay Post-installed Anchor products, demand for railway-related seismic materials leveled off, keeping sales at the same level as the previous period. On the other hand, while order amounts for the proprietary Shear Reinforcement RMA Method and for repair/reinforcement work at private facilities increased, segment profit decreased 18.9% to ¥572 million from ¥705 million in the previous period, marking a notable decline in profitability.

Key Products

product
Post-installed Anchor

This is the flagship product of the Fastener Business. It is sold widely for railway-related seismic materials as well as public infrastructure such as bridges and tunnels. In FY2026 (ending March 2026), demand for railway-related seismic materials leveled off, and sales remained at the same level as the previous period.

service
Seismic Retrofitting Work (Shear Reinforcement RMA Method, etc.)

This is seismic retrofitting work utilizing the company's proprietary Shear Reinforcement RMA Method. Order amounts for repair and reinforcement work for private facilities continued an increasing trend in FY2026 (ending March 2026) as well, although reflection in sales may be subject to timing lags.

product
Safety Facility Construction / Falling Object Prevention Products

This is a group of safety facility-related products, including falling object prevention products for road tunnel facilities as well as rivets and fabricated metal fittings. Stable demand is expected, mainly from public works.

Growth Drivers

  • Expansion of orders for seismic retrofitting work at private facilities (Shear Reinforcement RMA Method)
  • Steady trend in government construction investment centered on public works
  • Strengthening of technology-proposal-based sales using proprietary construction methods
  • Continued demand related to aging infrastructure such as bridges and tunnels
  • Sales of falling object prevention products and other safety facility-related products for road tunnel facilities

Risks

  • A ceiling on sales of mainstay products due to the leveling-off of demand for railway-related seismic materials
  • Increased costs and declining profit margins due to rising prices of construction materials and labor costs
  • Risk of profit timing lags due to early commencement of additional contract portions on large-scale construction projects
  • Impact on construction progress due to chronic shortage of construction engineers and skilled workers
  • Declining trend in seismic-related construction work ordered by public agencies
