Kawasaki kiko co.,ltd.

Since our company's founding in 1905, we have been developing coarse tea processing equipment such as steamers and dryers mainly in the steeped tea field. Currently, we also provide facilities for general tea production, such as tea farm management machines including harvesters and pest control machines, and high-pressure steam sterilizers for foodstuff products. All of this is part of a continual total effort to "Aim for customer benefits through our product" as described in our company principles.

We will continue to explore each and all possibilities needed to respond to ever diversifying tea needs. We will further continue to provide equipment that enables people around the world to produce tea they can drink with a feeling of safety and peace of mind while also applying the principles of tea making created by predecessors along with our own advanced knowledge and technology. I believe that this is our mission.
