In its chemicals business, Shoei Pharmaceutical procures oleochemicals including fatty acids, fatty amines, fatty alcohols, and glycerin as raw materials for surfactants, and sells these to intermediate product manufacturers. The final products are used in soaps, detergents, shampoos, cosmetics, and similar consumer goods.

In its consumer products business, Shoei Pharmaceutical develops household detergents and industrial cleaning agents under the theme of "safety and reliability," and sells them through OEM arrangements. Leveraging its expertise in the chemicals business, the company efficiently sources optimal raw materials and outsources production.

In its civil engineering and construction materials business, Shoei Pharmaceutical handles materials and additives used for ground improvement and concrete repair. Particularly in the sale of environmental remediation agents, the company holds patent rights and maintains competitive advantages. Through these strengths, it collaborates with general contractors in developing new construction methods.

Shoei Pharmaceutical pursues sustainable growth through a "concentration strategy" focused on deepening market penetration across its three business divisions: chemicals, consumer products, and civil engineering materials. The company concentrates management resources particularly in the chemicals sector, centered on oleochemicals, to achieve efficient market expansion.
