Mr. Yoichi Ikeji
President NHK SPRING (THAILAND) CO.,LTD.

We established the Company in Thailand in 1963 as a subsidiary of NHK Spring Co., Ltd., Japan, the world's leading spring manufacturer. Upon its establishment, the Company started by manufacturing automotive suspension springs, and later expanded to automotive seats and interiors, precision springs and components, as well as HDD suspension and mechanical components. We are proud that we are currently operate 6 factories in Thailand and employ approximately 5,100 employees.

One of our strengths is that we have a wide range of products, developed through top-level R&D and manufactured using high-class production technology. We have received various technical support from the NHK Group, but on the other hand, we have been working to ensure that such technology can be applied independently in Thailand. For example, as we have the equipment necessary for development here at Thai NHK, we are able to carry out most of the design, testing and prototyping necessary for the development of automobile seating without relying on Japan.

Our Company attaches great importance to the relationship of trust we have with our employees, which we have developed over many years, and we pay great attention to the employees education and welfare. As an example, our Company recently set up the Training Centre (Training Village) at Banpho Factory, organizing courses in various subjects at this facility as well as sending employees for training in Japan. Our Company really focuses on our Human Resources because one of our stated philosophies has long been "People are the heart of the business", and this has remained unchanged in our organization's philosophy since its establishment.

We promote sustainability activities based on the NHK Group's management policy of valuing people and contributing to society. We focus particularly on environmental issues and engage in activities that contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society, such as by installing solar panels at all six of our factories. NHK SPRING (Thailand) has and will continue to commit itself to the further development of Thai society.
