GREETING

C-ENG Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer with its main office and manufacturing base in Gamagori City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan.
Aichi Prefecture is one of the famous manufacturing regions in Japan, and our city, Gamagoori-city, has especially flourished in the textile and rope industries.
My grandfather and father also manufactured machines for making fishing nets and contributed to the rope industry.
C-ENG Co.,Ltd was founded in 1999 in response to the problem of fishing nets being dumped into the ocean, causing an ocean plastic problem.
Our company’s motto is "coexistence with nature." We are constantly working to research and develop materials that are safe, recyclable, eco-friendly, and that will satisfy our customers.
We hold patents for our products and machinery in 19 countries, and our products are manufactured not only in Japan but also in eight countries around the world, with more than 2,000 tons of materials being supplied all over the world each year.
C-ENG’s corporate philosophy is to "enrich the world with compassion and commitment to the joy of our customers."
Our company values the consideration for our customers, affiliated companies, suppliers and employees, and work to improve our company's technology and enrich the lives of people around the world in order to realize this philosophy.
