Since then, we have expanded our business to manufacturing and wholesale of various printings, name plates and other plates, and wholesale of a broad range of products related to seals and stamps, in order to respond to various customers’ needs. We now operate as a generalist in manufacturing and wholesale of products related to seals and stamps. We thank you for your support and trust.
Our motto being “Quality Products and Quality Services” since the establishment, we have strived to develop our staff to provide quality products with customers in mind and to introduce the newest equipment and software to respond quickly to customers’ various demands.
As a new challenge, we established new brands such as “Minnano Hankokoubou” with which we make stamps from creators’ illustration to materialize their creation, and “&UCHInoCO” with which you can order one and only products for your pets. We offer these new services and products in order to make customers’ life richer through interaction on online services such as social media which is more adapted to this new era, in addition to real stores.
We continue our efforts to make our customers, suppliers, and staff members smile like our logo mark with our products and services.Thank you for your continuous support.

Corporate Philosophy

Important Items

The history of seals dates back to about 5,000 years ago, when they were used as a tool for certification in Mesopotamia. A record says they were introduced to China going east on the Silk Road around 1400 B.C. Then they were brought into Japan from ancient China and Japan’s culture of seals started. A gold seal engraved “Kan-no Wa-no Na-no Kokuou” was discovered in 1784 in Shikano-shima, Kasuya-gun, Chikuzen (now Fukuoka Prefecture), which is considered the first seal introduced in Japan. For a period starting in medieval ages, use of seals established under Ritsuryo (ancient laws and ordinances) systems declined, while signature called “Kaou” became popular among citizens. Since Edo period, seals are generally used until now. In 1877, seal impression registration system was established by Dajokan Fukoku (proclamation of Grand Council of State) and use of registered seals was legally officialised, making seals an indispensable part of our life. Seals are required in various scenes of our life, from important events such as birth registration, marriage registration, the sale of a car, and real estate transaction to daily agreements. Seals are our long-time partners to in various scenes of our life. We will make your “important item” with our whole heart and deliver to you with smiles.

Three Promises

We, a generalist in manufacturing and wholesale of seals and stamps, dearly inherited traditional techniques, while proactively introducing the newest systems in order to make our production more efficient. We made great progress in creation of block copies, which had been originally considered difficult to achieve, to significantly reduce lead time and achieve lower cost. Meanwhile, we maintain manual operations in the finishing process because they are critical to ensure the quality, and deliver only the products which passed multiple testing processes. Also, we make “Three Promises” which can be achieved thanks to years of experience and proactive and constant introduction of the latest technologies.
