Essential Elements

To create a corporate culture in which sustainable growth is achieved regardless of replacement of personnel or changes in organizational forms, and to ensure that such a culture permeates across the JSR Group, we established our Essential Elements in April 2011 as values to be shared among all staff within the Group to enable them to act with responsibility and confidence.
The Essential Elements consists of the Corporate Mission, the Management Policies, and the Course of Action.

Corporate Mission

Our value is not limited to "materials" but includes the components that capitalize on the strengths of the materials themselves.
We will research, create and introduce high quality, highly functional chemistries, materials and technologies to the markets we serve.
Value will be created throughout all corporate activities across the JSR Group including manufacturing, sales, research and development, procurement, logistics, planning and administration.
We deliver exceptional materials that enhance people's lives while refusing to compromise on our social and environmental responsibilities.

Management Policies—JSR's Fundamental Pillars of Management

As society evolves, so does the demand for specialized materials and advanced products. JSR continuously evolves to anticipate and respond to changing marketing needs and, in doing so, achieves dynamic growth.

As society evolves, so will our organization. JSR will build on its existing positive corporate culture to create an organization and management style with the vitality to keep evolving.

JSR will position itself to increase our overall corporate value by creating businesses through materials with focuses on customer satisfaction and the fulfillment of employees.

Employees should strive for organizational transparency through direct conversations as the best means of sharing value and achieving common goals, especially in the face of growth and diversification.
