Corporate Philosophy

Nippon Talc Co., Ltd. was founded in 1934 as a specialized manufacturer of talc products. Since then, we have been focused on research and development with a unique manufacturing technology. We have grown over the years by making the most effective use of talc and creating continuously new products.
Nowadays, our talc products are widely used from day-to-day products to complex industrial applications.
