The SHIMA SEIKI Group strives to help solve social issues by conducting efforts to support SDGs through creative craftsmanship.
What are SDGs?
SDGs is an abbreviation for "Sustainable Development Goals," which are international goals adopted at the United Nations Summit in September 2015. SDGs are goals to be achieved within 15 years starting in 2016 to 2030, consisting of 17 goals and 169 targets to realize a sustainable, diverse, and inclusive society.
Smart & Speedy "manufacturing," which utilizes SDS-ONE APEX series to create realistic high-definition virtual samples and the WHOLEGARMENT computerized flat knitting machines to create seamless products, is an industrial revolution in the textile industry and the most sustainable production method.

Recognizing global environmental issues as a long-term important issue, we will promote product manufacturing that considers environmental conservation while maintaining a balance between "management" and "the environment."

Response to a recycling-based society
Environmental Initiatives
We aim to provide products and services that anticipate needs, and bring innovation not only in the fashion industry but also in various industries.
Technological innovation, quality, and safety
We believe that the basic concept of creative craftsmanship is "people," contributing to the realization of a society where stakeholders including employees, can be active, as well as creating a workable environment for employees and sustainable human resources development.
Human resources/education
As a corporate citizen of society, we will proactively engage in activities such as social contribution activities while developing business activities that are useful for society.
In order to practice management that emphasizes stakeholders, we will endeavor to enhance corporate governance and build a sound and highly transparent structure and organization.
