The company in the business for 40 odd years with the Japanese craftsmen
Rigidly committed to "Made in Japan" and manufacturing with full-hearted spirit.

What a resource-poor country Japan can be proud of is "high technology" as a national strength.
However, foreign companies have been actively acquiring the Japanese companies with high technology in recent years, and we feel the national strength has been declining by the outflow of human resources and technologies to outside of the country. In addition, when we consider the present circumstance as increasing of price gap with foreign products more and more, it seems small and tiny manufacturers must survive with their own independent efforts.

In such transformation period, Obitsu Plastic Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has been rigidly committed to "Made in Japan" by changing its main business from manufacturing/export to domestic manufacturing/distribution for toys during the past 40 odd years or approximately half a century since the company establishment.

A metal mold of slash molding as our main molding method can be manufactured by approximately 1/6～1/8 cheaper than a metal mold of injection molding, and it also can be manufactured in short period of time. We aim for a theme as "We manufacture a toy with high degree of perfection by slash molding" by utilizing its advantage and character.

While major toy manufacturers have been continuously shifting the production to overseas and their subcontracting manufacturers lose their jobs or change/close their business, our company continues manufacturing the products domestically for protecting the domestic manufacturers and craftsmen's life.
In the slash molding industry, the production technology of "Obitsu" has been highly evaluated to lead the industry with the products such as crafted soft vinyl toys that can be manufactured only in Japan, small quantity production of original character products for individual brand or figure models, and "Obitsu Kewpie" as a longtime seller product.

Among those products, the development, manufacturing, and distribution of "Obitsu Body" as a doll with freely movable joints expanded the user's interests for figures and dolls. "Obitsu Body" with various patents eliminates copy products from overseas and creates jobs for craftsmen. It has already acquired the intellectual property right in the US, EU countries, China, and South Korea and our customers in the world recognize and enjoy the products through Internet.

In addition, we structured a new business model for survival of the Japanese soft vinyl industry at this time.

While the dilapidated molding furnaces, built by bricks 40-50 years ago with using propane gas as heat source, have been abolished or the number of the molding furnaces has been declining every year, we succeeded the design/development of the first large molding rotary furnace with using electric power in the industry that contributes CO2 reduction and energy saving to earth-friendly environment. This large molding rotary furnace can mass-manufacture the products for lower price such as for unprecedented figure dolls, outer skin for robots as widely attracting attentions at present, and large display products to replace FRP.

We will succeed the production technology of slash molding to future as a pride of local industry in Katsushika/Tokyo, believe in succession of the analog technology as a road to survival for small and tiny domestic manufacturing industry, and design/develop secure・safe・high quality new products with craftsmen of slash molding.

You can count on Obitsu Plastic Manufacturing Co., Ltd. that rigidly commits to "Made in Japan" from now on.

Obitsu Plastic Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a craftsmanship company.

Rigidly committing to “Made in Japan” since the establishment is to improve the technical strength by fostering craftsmen with succeeding the technology as a competitive edge against a low cost production overseas.

There is no employee with a title of “sales” in our company because all of our employees hold a technology as craftsmen and many customers visit our company to seek for Obitsu’s technology without executing sales activity.

We transform a quality to a product with higher dimension for responding to various customer needs by executing from product design to molding, painting/assembling, and inspection in our domestic factory.
