Through our original manufacturing power,
We will provide products of value, and keep growing
TDK was founded in 1935 to commercialize ferrite, a magnetic material invented in Japan that was to revolutionize the electronic sector. For more than 70 years since then, we have developed four core technologies, namely Materials Technology with ferrite as the backbone, Process Technology to optimize the characteristics of materials, Evaluation and Simulation Technology to accelerate our development and design activities, and Production Technology to hone our manufacturing power. These technologies have given birth to a wide range of electronic products and key devices, such as magnetic heads for hard disk drives, multilayer ceramic chip capacitors, inductors, and a variety of sensors and noise-suppressing components, as well as power supplies and other power electronics products. All of these have significantly contributed to the growth of a society in which electronics plays a vital role.
Progress in the electronics industry has the potential to serve important concerns of today's world, such as energy conservation, safety, quality of life, and ubiquitous information access. At TDK, we believe that technological advances must be placed in a wider context. We therefore intend to focus our business resources on growth areas, including information devices, broadband networks, and car electronics. By further refining and deepening our core technologies, we believe that we will be able to develop truly creative products and technologies that meet the essential needs of our time.
The TDK motto of "contribute to culture and industry through creativity" is now as vibrant as ever. The spirit of craftsmanship, of creating products that have true value - this is what our manufacturing power is all about. As a company that has the needs of its customers at heart, we believe that we must be ready to swiftly adapt to market changes. Using our resources and potential of manufacturing to turn dreams into reality - this will continue to be our aim in the future.
