Company / Philosophy
Corporate Philosophy
Here is what we aim to be as a company.
Since our founding in 1975, Kataken Seiko has been dedicated to making precision dies and molds. To build highly accurate dies and molds, our founder introduced the concept of standardizing die and mold structures, contributing to the development of standards for dies and molds in Japan. More than half a century later, that spirit remains unchanged. With technology that covers dies and molds, production and equipment in an integrated way, Kataken Seiko continues to support its customers' manufacturing.

Our Founding Spirit
Our Founding Spirit
Kataken Seiko's origins lie in the die and mold technology that our founder, Kazuo Hamada, studied in the United States. His conviction that building highly accurate dies and molds requires standardized die and mold structures made a major contribution to the development of JIS standards for dies and molds in Japan after his return. Since then, the dies, molds and production systems developed by Kataken Seiko have achieved results described as "the world's smallest" and "the world's fastest."
