Compound Lab for resin processing
Pioneering Future Resin Materials That Combine Environmental Sustainability with Advanced Functionality
At the Compound Lab, we are dedicated to unlocking the full potential of resin materials through cutting-edge research and development. By combining resins with various fillers to optimize properties such as strength and heat resistance, we create high-performance materials tailored to meet our customers' diverse needs. Our swift and flexible development framework enables us to deliver solutions suited for a wide range of applications.
A key focus area for us is the development of materials that minimize environmental impact and prioritize sustainability. By actively leveraging eco-friendly materials like recycled carbon, cellulose fibers, and bio-based resins, we are advancing the creation of sustainable products. These technologies not only support our vision of sustainability but also capitalize on the synergies with Moriroku's resin processing business, offering a wide scope that ranges from in-house supply to external market expansion.

Chemical Lab for the chemical sector
A Next-Generation Chemical Innovation Center Revitalizing Unused Resources
The chemical Lab is a research and development facility dedicated to creating new materials and functionalities in the field of chemical products. By leveraging our strengths in procurement and sales—cultivated through years of experience as a trading company—we aim to deliver solutions that closely align with our customers’ needs.
Currently, we are proposing agricultural materials developed at the laboratory level to agricultural material manufacturers and pilot farms, and are advancing demonstration evaluations to validate their effectiveness.

One of our key focus areas is the development of biostimulant (BS) products utilizing non-edible waste materials. As a “third category” distinct from pesticides and fertilizers, biostimulants are gaining attention as next-generation agricultural inputs that stimulate plant immune functions and enhance resistance to environmental stress.
In addition, we have begun developing functional cosmetic ingredients derived from unused natural resources. With applications spanning both the agricultural and cosmetics markets, we are leveraging our unique procurement capabilities as a trading company to create sustainable, high-value chemical products.
