Message from the Chairman

In 1995, I ended my 16-year career at the National Police Agency in order to succeed my father as a president of Okamoto Glass Co., Ltd. Since then, I began to learn ABCs of specialty glass industry, and have developed management gropingly. With support of employees and concerned parties, we achieved remarkable growth to the ‘Only-one company’ as typified by 3 top share of the world market: Multi-lens with approx. 75%, reflecting mirror with 64.9%, which are respectively for the use of projectors, and dental mirror with approx. 72%. Chemistry between glass with nearly same composition of geosphere and light is outclassing in ‘transmission’ and ‘refraction’. Glass is ultimate eco material born from and return to the earth without 3R (Recycle, Reuse, and Reduce), which is precisely 21st material.
