Gifu Dyeing Co., Ltd. is a textile processing company specializing in fabric dyeing and finishing services. Leveraging dyeing technologies developed over many years, the company provides high-quality dyeing and finishing services for various fiber products. In recent years, the company has diversified its business portfolio by entering the biomass power generation sector, aiming to build a stable revenue base.

In its dyeing and finishing operations, the company has established long-term business relationships with major fiber manufacturers, including subcontracting dyeing services from Toray Industries, Inc. Its subsidiary, Gif Packing Co., Ltd., handles finishing, product storage, and packaging of processed goods, creating an integrated service system from dyeing through final product delivery. This vertical integration enables the company to respond comprehensively to diverse customer needs.

The company operates two business segments: dyeing and finishing operations, and power generation operations. In the power generation segment, Gifu Biomass Power Co., Ltd. operates biomass power generation using wood biomass, while Biomass Energy Tokai Co., Ltd. handles fuel manufacturing and sales. Through entry into this renewable energy business, the company is transitioning from traditional textile processing and building a diversified business portfolio oriented toward sustainable growth.

Gifu Dyeing has established its Third Medium-Term Management Plan, with fiscal year 115 as the final year, under the company-wide policy of becoming an "Only One company"—a sustainability-focused, value-creating enterprise capable of generating sustainable profits. The company has prioritized establishing a continuous black-ink operational structure and aims to build a management foundation that secures stable orders and generates profits. As a key performance indicator, the company recognizes consolidated operating profit margin on sales as critical and is committed to improving enterprise value through its enhancement.

The company's priority investment areas focus on product development and differentiation strategies centered on sustainability. In its core dyeing and finishing business, the company is accelerating development of the environmentally conscious product "ecomoⓇ" to strengthen non-price competitiveness. In the textile sales business, it has obtained RCS certification; in the wood veneer dyeing and processing business, it is strengthening development of next-generation vehicle components. Each business segment is working to enhance its proprietary technological capabilities.

For new market development, the company is actively promoting export expansion to Europe and North America, leveraging favorable yen depreciation. While advancing timely product development in its areas of strength, the company is accurately monitoring market conditions to improve competitiveness in overseas markets. Simultaneously, it is deepening relationships with existing customers while focusing on new market development to diversify its revenue base.

Regarding technological innovation, the company is deploying a company-wide 3S and energy-saving project, promoting cost-reduction activities including defect loss reduction, process improvement, and production lead-time shortening through all-employee participation. In its power generation business, the company plans to work with Biomass Energy Tokai Corporation to focus on post-FIT and new fuel development, maintaining profitability through cost reduction. Through these technological innovations, the company aims to realize an "Only One and Number One company."
