Consequences of the Tohoku Earthquake

We would like to express our deepest condolences to those affected by the earthquake in the Tohoku region.
Satake is doing all it can to help our customers and all those affected recover and rebuild.

We have confirmed that all Satake employees are safe, and Satake Corporation is operating normally. However, as a result of the earthquake's effects on logistics in Japan, some customers may experience shipment delays or other inconveniences. Operations at our factories overseas have not been affected.

Satake will work to solve these problems as soon as possible.
