Kitagawa Furniture Works, the predecessor, began operations in 1918. At the time of foundation they manufactured wooden pulleys, but as business progressed, in 1936, they moved from wood to metal works.In 1941, Kitagawa Iron Works was established.
Since then, they have manufactured chucks, winches, and other industrial machinery leading to the present products, and have solidified a foundation as a manufacturing company always moving along with the times. Today, they operate their business not only in Japan, but also in the United States, Europe, China, and Southeast Asia, centering on the three industries of “Metal Raw Materials”, “Machine Tools” and “Industrial Machinery”. Without forgetting the philosophy of “treasuring the region you are in”, they are walking towards the world, and towards the future.
