The establishment of Teijin Frontier India will strengthen Teijin Frontier Group’s ongoing global business expansion in strategic fields including the environment, mobility and high-performance textiles, three sectors where India is expected to be a key player in terms of both supply and consumption.
Going forward, Teijin Frontier plans to continue strengthening its global value chain for producing yarns, fabrics and finished products. Teijin is a technology-driven global group offering advanced solutions in the fields of environmental value; safety, security and disaster mitigation; and demographic change and increased health consciousness.
Originally established as Japan’s first rayon manufacturer in 1918, Teijin has evolved into a unique enterprise encompassing three core business domains: high-performance materials, healthcare including pharmaceuticals and home healthcare equipment and IT including B2B solutions and B2C online services for digital entertainment.
