Aramid We produce two types of aramid fibers, one which possesses excellent high strength, heat resistance, and dimensional stability, and another type that has outstanding flame resistance. These fibers have been adopted in automotive components, civil engineering materials, and protective clothing such as firefighting uniforms. Carbon Fibers Carbon fibers are the raw material of composites. They are only a quarter of the weight of steel but are ten times stronger. These fibers have unique characteristics such as fatigue resistance, rust-prevention, and chemical resistance. Films We have earned trust in fields where advanced technology is sought such as automobiles and electronic components, thanks to our PET and PC films as well as PEN films, where we led the world in their development. Resin and Plastic Processing Our polycarbonate (PC) resins with outstanding transparency and impact resistance, and resin products made using processing technology are used in a wide range of fields such as automotive components and office machinery. Fibers and Products Converting Together with diverse product development, we are undertaking initiatives to create new markets in the fields of apparel as well as industrial materials with an integrated supply system covering research and development up to the final product. 5 TEIJIN Corporate Profile 6
