Thank you for reading Market News.
In this issue, we would like to introduce you to ASKA Company's original products and services, “AS Family”.
As a plastic molding manufacturer, we develop and produce a wide variety of plastic products.
We have been providing products with specifications based on customer needs.
Since 2020, we have been offering our original products “AS Spout Series.” They are related to spout pouch containers, and they are also environmentally friendly containers.
We have also developed services such as seminars and equipment based on the ideas we have cultivated through manufacturing, and maintenance services using oxidation-reduction cleaning oven furnaces for dies and molds, which are important for product manufacturing.
We have named these products and services “AS Family” and created a logo with the hope of further penetration.
Aska's original products and services are collectively referred to as the “AS Family,” and in terms of products, the AS Series is represented as a group of plastic products.
Thoughts on the AS Family Logo
Regarding the logo shape, the overall form is inspired by the AS series product shape.
We want to contribute to a recycling-oriented society!
With this in mind, we used arrows to represent the social cycle, and expressed our wish that the growth rate of the recycling-oriented society will steadily increase.
Map of Business Areas where ASKA COMPANY Contributes
Here is the “Overall picture of the business fields to which ASKA COMPANY contributes” as expressed in our company brochure, which was updated in October 2024.
In the previous “Overview of Business Fields Contributed by ASKA COMPANY,” there were three categories: Plastics, Equipment Systems, and Cleaning, but now that our seminars are available to many customers, we have added seminars to the list, making it a four-category representation.
We have also added the logo of the ASKA Company's original products and services, the “AS Family,” and hope that it will make it easier to understand the ASKA Company.
Social Implementation of Materials for a Recycling-Oriented Society
Plastics are categorized into two types of products: contract-developed products developed in response to customer requests and the AS Series, our original “AS Family” products, which are easy to understand.
In addition, we have often introduced products using biomass materials and other materials that support a recycling-oriented society on our blog, but we have added our efforts toward a recycling-oriented society to our business field map as “Social Implementation of Materials for a Recycling-Oriented Society”.
This has led to the “operation of ISCC Plus certification” and the development and marketing of products using biomass resin.
"Material recycling” aims to realize commercialization of products instead of waste.
About Seminars
Our manufacturing concept is “collaborative activities between people and machines."
The meaning of this concept is that not only collaboration between people and machines, but also the connection between people and people is important in manufacturing.
It means that we aim for optimal manufacturing with high productivity through collaboration between people and machines.
In our seminars, we provide examples of IoT utilization and DX that are connected to our manufacturing concept to many people, regardless of industry.
It is true that Aska Company still has many things to improve, but we would be happy if we could think and discuss about the importance of “collaborative activities between people and machines” together with you.
Mark expressing cooperative activities between people and machines
Our fiscal year ends in October.
October 2024 marks the beginning of our 58th fiscal year, a new term.
Our long-term management goal until the previous fiscal year was “Contribution to productivity improvement in the plastics industry,” but from this fiscal year it has been updated to “Contribution to productivity improvement in various industries,” with the hope of contributing to productivity improvement not only in the plastics industry but also in various other industries.
