Pipeline Engineering and Construction

Leading Product Lineup and Pipe Manufacturing Technology in Japan to Meet Various Demands

FUSO's history in the pipeline business dates back to the postwar reconstruction period. By increasing the number of products we handle and refining our pipe manufacturing technology, we have adapted to needs that have changed over the decades. As a general water infrastructure company specializing in both pipelines and facilities, we connect safe and secure water to the community and use these to build a better future.

FUSO sells products from more than 700 manufacturers, mainly materials and equipment used in pipelines. These include ductile iron pipes, polyvinyl chloride pipes, and polyethylene pipes. Through our network of branches and sales offices, we have established a system that enables us to immediately deliver necessary water supply and sewage equipment and materials to sites in the event of an emergency or disaster.

FUSO Steel Pipe Plant

We manufacture steel pipes for all kinds of applications and facilities, including water supply, sewage, agriculture, industry, and electric power, at our own plants. With strict product inspections and high value competitiveness based on in-house standards as well as JIS, JWWA, and other standards, we are capable of meeting demand for large-scale plants both in Japan and overseas.

Developing Construction Methods and Promoting Their Use

Proposing the Pipeline DB (Design Build) Method
Proposing the Pipeline DB (Design Build) Method

Proposing single orders for engineering (design) and construction (building) of pipeline renewal projects that will significantly shorten the construction period.

Pipeline Rehabilitation and Promotion Projects
Pipeline Rehabilitation and Promotion Projects

We promote the use of the pipe-in-pipe concept, in which a new pipe is constructed on the inner surface of the existing pipeline, rather than the labor-intensive work of replacing a pipeline, in order to reduce costs and construction periods.

Resolving On-site Issues Together with Peer Companies

These days, more and more companies are struggling with the problem of finding young engineers to replace their retiring veterans. To address these succession issues, FUSO will provide support for engineer cultivation through on-site guidance and piping training, and will also develop a construction management system that utilizes IoT. We also propose comprehensive outsourcing orders to solve problems faced in the field.

Launch of FUSO Shikoku Distribution Center Operations in Takamatsu City

After the completion of the reconstruction of a distribution warehouse in the Goto area of Takamatsu City in Kagawa Prefecture, this warehouse launched operations as FUSO Shikoku Distribution Center in July 2024. To adapt to changes in the distribution environment, this will be the hub of our delivery system to be established in the Shikoku area. In addition to expanding our lineup of maintenance and repair products, we aim to ensure a stable supply and distribution of products even in the event of a major disaster.
