Fields which must be promoted as a comprehensive company of water

In order for FUSO to achieve social contribution further as a "comprehensive company of water," it is essential to create a strong technological foundation. Therefore, we establish the "FUSO Technology Strategy" and extract the issues concerning water infrastructures in the future. The important fields for the technology strategy are summarized and analyzed. As a result, "Management," "Energy," and "Resilience" are extracted as the fields in which technology development, maintenance and improvements must be promoted. The goal of our company is to pursue the happiness of all people related to FUSO, in order to improve the company so that it is required by society, including contributions to related technology, such as the water infrastructure in Japan, and expansion of the international waterworks business within our vision.

Three fields to promote technology development, maintenance and improvement of specialist techniques

  • ManagementThe management of water supply/wastewater assets is an extremely important issue in consideration of the low birthrate and longevity, decrease in the population, and reduction of the water demand, etc. FUSO promotes development, maintenance and improvement of the technology which contributes to the efficient and rational management of water infrastructures.
  • EnergySince the Great East Japan Earthquake, utilization of renewable energy, such as sunlight, wind power, and hydropower, etc. has been demanded. We will produce such renewable energies in order to promote the development, maintenance and improvement of power storage technology.
  • ResilienceClimate change due to global warming has already started. We will promote development, maintenance, and improvement of technology which improves the resilience of water infrastructures in disaster prevention and disaster reduction for water shortages, torrential downpours, floods and earthquakes.
Specialist techniques for a Competitive Advantage

Maintenance and improvement of "Specialist techniques," development and practical use by the innovation of technology and human resource development which contributes to "Management," "Energy," and "Resilience." This is called the "FUSO-MERITS."

Two wheels of FUSO's technology

The FUSO technology strategy consists of two wheels including the "maintenance and improvement of Specialist techniques for a Competitive Advantage" and "technology development which conforms to the market needs." The "Specialist technique" refers to the on-site capability that has been cultivating since the establishment of FUSO. Our goal is to develop technology for a competitive advantage with these two fields, including the design and construction technology of water treatment facilities, and design and manufacturing accumulated in the steel pipe plant. "Technology development" refers to the development of technology required for the water infrastructure market in the future, based on the technology developed in the water treatment laboratory, etc. The mutual interaction of these two wheels will make FUSO's technology progress drastically.

Structure of FUSO's Technology Strategy

In order for the two wheels of FUSO's technology to function, we positioned the "maintenance and improvement of specialist techniques" and "technology development" as the strategy, and organized a structure with levels of tactics and tools below the strategies. We will promote sustainable development of technology by promoting and expanding the 2 strategies, 4 tactics, and 16 tools.
