About Our Research and Development

Tribology is an area of research that is indispensable to the energy and resource conservation demanded in today’s highly developed society.

We carry out research into the applications of tribology and advance development of DRILUBE® products to correspond to environmental restrictions. Utilizing a variety of analyzing tools, including an electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer, we constantly strive for development of new functions of DRILUBE® products.
