In last decade, we have promoted M&A in Europe intensively eg.

Now we are actively expanding our business all over the Europe area, including North Africa.

In response to global movements towards environmental issues, in July 2018, Toray Group announced the Toray Group Sustainability Vision, declaring its long-term determination to provide innovative technologies and advanced materials that help global issues including climate change. In the vision, Toray Group declared its aim of “a net zero world, where greenhouse gas emissions are completely offset by absorption,” effectively cutting greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2050.

I sincerely hope that you will find our website useful, and that it will deepen your understanding of the Toray Group.
