In 2015, Kyoto Creative Park, completed in the Keihanna Science City in Kidugawawa-shi, Kyoto, is the base for Asahi Printing to carry out research and development to create new products and technologies. In addition to the East Building where medical packaging is manufactured, we started operation at the West Building where packaging for OTC medicine and cosmetic is manufactured. Therefore, we realized comprehensive packaging manufacturing both for medicine and cosmetic, and we will fulfill our supply responsibilities on top of Business Continuity Plan.

At Kyoto Creative Park, we conduct research and development on new products that offer new added value to customers, as well as technologies and production methods to realize these products. It also serves as a "pilot plant" to feed back the technologies and production methods that have been put into practical use here to other plants.

Kyoto Creative Park also serves as a manufacturing base for medical and cosmetic packages, enabling faster supply to western Japan area. In addition, we have adopted state-of-the-art production lines, production management systems and security systems to create a higher quality manufacturing environment.

In times of disasters, medicines are required to be supplied ever promptly and reliably and the packaging is also a part of them. With our several production bases such as plants in Toyama region and Kyoto Creative Park, and group companies, Asahi Printing Group has assured that we may minimize the disruption even in the disastrous situation and provide a prompt and reliable supply.
