A message from the president

Marusumi, initially founded as a japanese handmade paper company, is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Today we produce a variety of paper manufactured in the western manner including what is used for newspapers, and also for publishing, printing, information, wrapping and processing purposes.

As global concerns in environmental issues continue to rise, we are contributing to the actualization of a sustainable society by: thinning forests which is essential for its own preservation to promote carbon-neutrality, using wood from afforested trees that are grown to reproduce the forests which intake CO2, and utilizing recycled paper. Throughout our extensive history in paper production, we have always progressed our skills by thinking outside the box, alongside all of our customers. We promise to continue to provide papers which meet the needs of those who are in demand, and to propose exceptional papers.

While putting effort into new projects in the area of electric power business, sanitary goods, etc.; we are also enthusiastic about our joint research with universities and research organizations on advanced businesses such as CNF made of next generation materials, civil engineering materials made of recycled waste, and more. Along with the paper production business, we are building our corporate structure centered around eco-friendly biomass.

Our sincere corporate culture has grown alongside the support of all of our customers, clients and the people of the region; and we believe that it is important to promote open innovation to correspond to the age where new technologies are developing, and to build beneficial relationships with many companies and organizations – spreading the “harmony of people” that creates the future.

I wish to share our passion in working together to aim for a society full of smiles, and am hoping to receive all of your support. Thank you.

HOSHIKAWA Tomoyuki, President
