2025 Business Plan / Pillars of activity

Equipped with human-machine interface functions for communication between people and vehicles, creating a more secure and comfortable interior space.

Sensor functions that support autonomous driving integrated in lightweight plastic body

Knowledge cultivated in the fields of high polymers and LEDs and experience gained as a world leader in the development of blue LEDs are used to create practical and innovative new technology that will contribute to safety, comfort, well-being and the environment.

Toyoda Gosei is pursuing a focused strategy of expanding its airbag business to meet growing demand with stricter safety regulations worldwide; increasing its business in the rapidly growing Indian and Chinese markets; selecting and concentrat-ing management resources; seeking thorough efficiency; and pursuing the advantages of scale.

Automated and labor-saving processes are being put in place that use information technology (IoT, AI) and other leading technology, and personnel who can analyze and effectively use big data in conjunction with universities and other companies are being trained.

To deal with autonomous driving, electrification and other changes in automobiles, we are refining our core technical strengths in rubber and plastics, working collaboratively with customers and specialty manufacturers, and developing new products with a sense of urgency.

■ e-Rubber

■ Next-generation concept model

Next-generation rubber that functions with electricity and mechanical force.

Next-generation type of power semiconductors (electronic compo-nents that convert/control power). Using the gallium nitride (GaN) crystal growth technology cultivated in the development and production of LEDs, we are developing products that contribute to more efficient and smaller electronic devices.

Unprecedented light, soft “artificial muscle” (actuators) and sensors have been developed with the combination of Toyoda Gosei’s technical strengths in rubber and the materials patents of Advanced Softmaterials, Inc., a startup out of Tokyo Univer-sity.

New Car Assessment Programs (NCAP) are currently in place in western countries and Japan and are being introduced in many southeast Asia countries, India, China and elsewhere. These regulations are becoming stricter each year, and demand for airbags is predicted to continue growing. Toyoda Gosei is committed to meeting this demand.

The number of automobiles produced in India is rapidly increas-ing. In 2017 automobile impact safety performance tests became mandatory, and in 2020 India will make its domestic exhaust gas regulations stricter. Thus, we may expect growing demand for safety and environmental products.

Compact and energy-saving equipment will be used to reduce CO2

emissions during production. This leading-edge eco-plant is fitting as a plant producing a key component of fuel cell vehicles (FCVs), which have been called the ultimate eco cars.

Development of people who can analyze various types of mass data obtained from sensing technology in production processes. Processes are being put in place with sensing that can reduce and predict loss.

■ GaN power semiconductors

■ Growing airbag market ■ Active investment in India
