Kimura Shoji Group (Sales office: 19, Higashi Toriu-cho, Imabari, Ehime) has begun full-scale operation at its newly-established plant in Dalian, China, in order to strengthen production capacity for special finishing auxiliaries, including textile finishing agents, to meet the growing amount of textile finishing carried out in China.

on occasion of new plant establishment

Kimura Shoji Group has announced a new name for the group company, changing from Dalian Yuken Chemical to Airi Chemical, taking advantage of the occasion of the completion of its new plant, which has already started full-scale operation, located at 1A-30 Dalian Free Trade Zone.

Airi Chemical will shift to the manufacturing of synthetic fiber finishing auxiliaries from the conventional business of distributing finishing auxiliaries for cotton in China. In addition, it intends to increase the proportion of local clients, instead of the conventional focus on Japan-based manufacturers.
