INNOVATION STORY

Since its founding, at a time when imported machinery was the mainstream, EBARA contributed to the industrial development of Japan by actively supplying Japanese-made products to the world.

Having survived the Great Kanto Earthquake and World War Two, the company took on the challenge of developing not only pumps, but also new products such as fans and chillers in order to build the infrastructure that would be essential for Japan's modernization.

EBARA's current technological base is supported by its historic achievements.

EBARA worked hard to improve its technical capabilities and improve its production systems for pumps and fans.
It would play a key role in Japan's postwar reconstruction and infrastructure development during the nation’s period of rapid economic growth.
To make up for the technological delays caused by the war, the company aggressively adopted new technologies and eagerly developed its own products.

The Japanese economy was facing inflation and recession due to both the strong yen and the oil crisis.
Despite this, increased public investment in social infrastructure due to counter-recessionary measures provided a tailwind for EBARA's performance.
However, the subsequent sharp rise in the yen following the Plaza Accord dampened EBARA's appetite for exporting.
We began to tackle the next growth areas such as precision machinery, electronics, and the environment.

In recent years, we have concentrated on growth areas, building a foundation for future development by developing and strengthening our global network, constructing the Futtsu Plant as our mother plant (completed in 2010), and expanding the Precision Machinery Company's plant.
We are also focusing on the development of new products and services that contribute to solving social issues by advancing fluid technology. Looking to the future, EBARA aims to be an industrial machinery manufacturer that meets the needs of the world, repeatedly reforming and challenging ourselves in response to societal change.
