Mobility Material Division
Material Group and Seat Supply Chain Management Group
We proactively address the challenges of the next generation society by developing eco-friendly materials and improving recycling technologies. We strive to enhance customer value in the areas of manufacturing, design, and digital, and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.
Building a global
supply chain
We are building a global supply chain for automotive interior materials. Leveraging the strengths of the Toyota Tsusho Group, we collaborate with partners around the world to support local material sourcing and sales. In an environment where carbon neutrality and business continuity planning are crucial in logistics, we contribute to solving our customers' challenges.
Proposing optimal value chains
To realize optimal operations ranging from proposal of materials and components to arraigning logistics and processing, we combine the knowledge of a textiles trading company with the expertise built up in the auto industry to support product and service development. We also aim to deliver new added value by accelerating carbon neutrality and digital transformation (DX) initiatives together with our partners.
Main products handled by the Material Group
and Seat Supply
Chain Management Group
Flooring materials
We supply materials for floors that require durability and stain resistance, providing a more comfortable interior space for automobiles.
Ceiling materials
We supply raw materials used in the ceiling materials of numerous Toyota Motor vehicles. We contribute to carbon neutrality through the use of recycled PET fibers in ceiling materials, which account for one of the largest surface areas of all auto parts.
Door trim
Our door trim materials using kenaf, an annual plant with excellent CO2 absorption performance, help to reduce CO2 emissions over the product life cycle by using plant-based materials to make component weights lighter.
Car seats
We provide components for seats that meet the performance and specifications requirements of a wide range of car models, supporting comfortable driving.
Consoles
We also provide materials for consoles. These materials are selected considering their use as storage spaces and armrests that help reduce fatigue during long-distance drives. We take into account that these areas are frequently touched by human hands when selecting the optimal materials.
Installment panels
We provide decorative synthetic leather for the instrument panel, which is the face of the car's interior. Our synthetic leather not only adds functionality but also offers a pleasant experience for passengers inside the vehicle.
Shift boots
We offer synthetic leather for shift boots. As these parts experience stress with every movement of the shift lever, we provide highly durable materials to ensure longevity.
