Maruyama Manufacturing's New R&D Center

Introduction

Maruyama Manufacturing Co., Ltd., based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has announced the groundbreaking of a new research and development facility titled "R&D Center (tentative)". This initiative is aimed at accelerating collaborative innovation and is expected to commence operations by 2027.

Purpose of the R&D Center

The new center will centralize design departments that have previously operated separately based on product categories. By doing so, Maruyama intends to enhance collaboration with internal and external partners. The company has a rich history dating back to its founding in 1895, when it pioneered fire extinguisher production in Japan. Since then, Maruyama has leveraged its core technologies in pumping and engine innovations to expand its business in agricultural and industrial pumping machinery.

With the establishment of the R&D Center, Maruyama plans to focus on the development of growth-oriented products, environmentally friendly technologies, and efficient automated processes. The center aims to create a vibrant R&D environment where employees can thrive, while also promoting interdisciplinary research and collaborative projects with diverse technical partners.

Water Circulation Systems in R&D

A significant aspect of the R&D Center will be the implementation of water circulation and reuse systems. Given that extensive water resources will be required for research and development, this system not only aims to mitigate environmental impact but also considers the critical issue of securing water for domestic use during major disasters.

Future Perspectives

Maruyama aims to remain a company that actively contributes to solving societal challenges related to food, water, and the environment through its business activities. The new R&D Center will be pivotal in expanding technological possibilities and fostering a sustainable society.
