The old paradigm that science and technology existed for the convenience and prosperity of mankind has to be replaced with the new paradigm that is: "Mankind has to learn to exist without disrupting the environment, and science and technology will be used to attain this new goal."
Nemoto & Co. Ltd, since its founding 65 years ago, has developed and will continue to develop technologically unique products in the fields of Safety, Security and Health for the benefit of the society.
One of Nemoto's remarkable inventions has been the super bright and long afterglow phosphorescent pigment, LumiNova®. This invention that has been awarded various prizes in Japan, such as Nikkei Best Product Award in 1994, New Business Grand Prize in 1995, Ohkohchi Memorial Technological Prize in 1996, etc., has shattered all existing standards of glow-in-the-dark pigments that have been trenched for more than 100 years. The invention of this "revolutionary" product and application fields that it has created, has forced the industries using phosphorescent pigments to upgrade their existing standards many fold.
Throughout its existence, Nemoto has expanded its product range and fields from chemicals to electronics to life sciences. Therefore our future goal is again to continue developing not only new products but also new technologies that meet the needs of the world, and we will thus grow as a high technology oriented company on the theme of "CHEMICALS FOR THE BENEFITS OF THE EARTH AND MANKIND."
