TOYO holds first PS in 4 years

April 26, 2023

TOYO (Kariya City, Aichi, President: Iichiro Haga), a Japanese machines and tools trading company, held a private show “TOYO Green Campaign 2023” on March 23 and 24 at the Kariya City Industrial Promotion Center in Kariya City, Aichi (=photo). About 80 companies exhibited and about 2,200 people visited the two-day event, which was the company’s first private show in four years since 2019, due to COVID-19.

One of the highlights of the show was, as the title suggests, environmentally friendly products. “The entire manufacturing industry is increasingly aware of the need to address this issue, and there is a high level of interest in the environment,” said President Haga. There was also a full range of automation exhibits, with major robot manufacturers making many proposals for automating assembly processes.

President Haga described the private show as an opportunity to hear directly from the front lines about their needs. “The automotive industry, which is our main customer base, is undergoing a major, once-in-a-century transformation. Things will be different from the past, and different things will be needed. This is both an opportunity and a chance to prove our capabilities”, said President Haga.
