Value Creation Enterprise

Unique products through the combination of traditional chemical synthesis
and cutting edge technology

Chemicals
We have created a large number of unique products in such diverse fields as chemical products, electronics chemicals developed from industrial chemicals, construction chemicals, environmental chemicals, and pharmaceutical intermediate products. Through the development
of original technologies, we shall continue to devote ourselves to creating useful produts serving the needs of future, ultramodern industries and environmental concerns in the future.

Agricultural Chemicals Pharmaceuticals
The development of safe, effective agrochemical with low environmental impact is crucial to world agriculture. At Nissan Chemical, we are continuing our research into creating new agrochemical for broad-scale use on the world's major crops. Our ability to produce new products has earned an excellent reputation, thanks to our TARGA, SIRIUS, and PERMIT herbicides, our SANMITE acaricide, and other products We have concentrated on developing new pharmaceuticals that meet the needs of the aging society. We have released the anti-hypertensive agent LANDEL and the anti-hyperlipidemic agent LIVALO. Presently we are conducting clinical tests for NM-702 (an anti-platelet agent) for launching them in domestic and overseas markets.


Creating added value through research and development
at our four bases in Japan
At Nissan Chemical, R&D is the driving force behind our growth. Through R&D, we develop unique and outstanding technology and produce value-added products with a multitude of completely new features. Within Japan, we maintain four R&D bases where, in addition to our ongoing and original research and development, we engage in joint research with both Japanese and overseas public research institutes, universities and companies, as well as actively sharing our technology. Outside of Japan, besides opening our agrochemicals field test sites in Indiana, USA(1994) and in France(1997), we are conducting product planning and experimental research at the global level through joint ventures in France and Spain.
