Business Details
This segment centers on the manufacture and sale of raw materials (yarn) and textiles, handling a diverse range of fiber materials including natural fibers, synthetic fibers, Fabric (Textiles), Work Glove Materials, and Dust Control Products. It collaborates with domestic and overseas fiber manufacturers and production regions, focusing on the supply of sustainable raw materials such as organic cotton and the development of high-value-added products. Amid continued challenging market conditions both domestically and overseas, the segment is working to maintain profitability through strengthened overseas sales and an expanded lineup of proposal products.
Recent Overview
Revenue and profit declined amid continued challenging market conditions both domestically and overseas, with sales down 3.4% and profit down 20.9%
In the Materials Business for FY2026 (ending March 2026), sales were ¥24,725 million (down 3.4% year on year) and segment profit was ¥589 million (down 20.9% year on year). While natural fibers saw steady sales of organic cotton both domestically and overseas, Work Glove Materials saw its mainstay products struggle due to intensifying competition and concerns over rising raw material prices, resulting in a decline in revenue. Dust Control Products also saw a decline in profit, as the segment was unable to offset the impact of continued production adjustments for existing mainstay products. Note that, due to an organizational change, the year-on-year comparison has been restated based on the post-change segment classification method.
Key Products
Growth Drivers
