Message from the President
Our company took over the facilities, technology and human resources of Usuki Tekkoku Co., Ltd. in 1988, and was founded with the support of local political and business leaders and Kawatetsu & Steel Industries (now JFE Steel Corporation).
Since then, the vessels have built high value-added vessels such as chemical tankers, passenger ferry boats, car carriers, and frozen carriers. In the steel division, we worked on bridges, water gates and so on. Recently, due to the active chemical cargo movement, demand for chemical tankers is large, and we are continuously constructing chemical tankers.
Since our establishment, we have been focusing on research and development of ship-type, especially hybrid ship-type developed with funds of Ship and Ocean Foundation has achieved great results by adopting it to high-speed ferries. In addition, as for chemical tankers, the vessels with “usuki” have been evaluated by many ship owners as having less fuel costs.
I will continue to work on technical research, and I hope to deliver ships and steel products that will satisfy our customers.
Thank you for your continued guidance and support.

【 Chemical Tankers 】
Chemical tankers are dedicated tankers for carrying large quantities of special liquid chemical products. Special anti-corrosion measures have been taken to prevent the cargo metals from being corroded by cargo chemicals. This system is also used for high-value-added liquid chemical products in a wide variety and in small quantities.
