Message from the CEO
Since our founding in 1997, we have been committed to titanium.
We believe that titanium is ideal for accessories that are worn every day because it is as light as possible, durable, and safe for people with metal allergies to use.
From Sanjo, a town of manufacturing, we would like to help enrich your lives through titanium.
And we aim to be a company that can bring happiness to everyone.
