UNITIKA TRADING CO., LTD.

Unitika Trading Co., Ltd. (Head office: Chuo-ku, Osaka; President: Katsuhide Kyunai) started an initiative to strengthen industry-academia collaboration with the Nara National University Organization in July this year. We will materialize ideas and promote the development of new materials and new businesses.
Our company mainly develops, produces, and sells textile-related technologies and materials. In addition to responding to the needs of user companies, we would like to increase the number of new perspectives and ideas regarding our technologies and materials. We hope that by holding lectures and workshops with students and related parties, we will be able to gain new ideas and perspectives. We will reflect this in our business development.
