Through creating new and useful technologies and products, Sumitomo Chemical
continues to work toward improving living standards and alleviating the problems
of our society.
The origins of Sumitomo Chemical can be traced back to 1913, when the company
used sulfur dioxide emissions from the Besshi Copper Mine in the Shikoku region
of Japan to produce calcium superphosphate fertilizers, thereby reducing pollution
from the mine. In addition to helping preserve the environment by preventing
the emission of pollutants, the company was thereby also able to contribute
toward increasing the harvest of agricultural products. Sumitomo Chemical
thus found its start with the solving of environmental problems and the goal
of improving living standards.
Although Sumitomo Chemical has diversified its operations over the years to
keep abreast of the changing times, the company maintains the basic policy
that its operations must not only profit itself but must also benefit society
at large.
Today, the Sumitomo Chemical Group includes some 100 companies operating around
the world in six business sectors: basic chemicals, petrochemicals and plastics,
fine chemicals, IT-related chemicals, agricultural chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.
Sumitomo Chemical will continue to strive towards meeting the high expectations
of our business partners, shareholders, investors, regional communities, and
all other stakeholders. As a chemical company, we hope to capitalize on our
research and development capabilities, technological prowess, and ability
to supply quality products to yield benefits for people, society, and the
world.
