Tokyo Technology Laboratory
In 2018, we established the Tokyo Technology Laboratory as a hub for quickly responding to customer requests and difficulties. For example, if a customer is considering adhesives or coating materials, but is unsure of how to proceed, the lab can provide access to facilities and provide technical guidance. This includes various forms of technical work, such as application, adhesion, strength testing, and observation, conducted in the presence of Toagosei engineers.
Features
- Evaluates adhesives and coating materials in a convenient location in Tokyo next to the Toagosei head office.
- Provides services ranging from simple compounds to strength measurement and fracture surface observation.
- Fully equipped with a yellow room, enabling the handling of UV-curable materials.
