The company KENTATSU DENKI LTD is a direct descendant of a well-known company called TANIGUCHI DENKI. It was formed on the basis of TANIGUCHI SANGYO, which became practically a legend. The company appeared in the world before last century. All this time, the basis of KENTATSU's work was the development and manufacture of precision mechanics products. Then it was established the production of heavy engineering products. At the same time, for about fifty years, products intended for military use predominated in total production. Not surprisingly, a well-known company became only in the late 20th century. Then KENTATSU began to enter the markets of household and medical equipment.
The main principle of the company's activity is "reasonable sufficiency". He was nominated by President Ichiro Hayashi more than sixty years ago. All products must be designed in such a way as to be as user-relevant as possible. In addition, the "imposition" of any secondary capabilities and functions was not welcomed.
The company under the name TANIGUCHI SANGYO was registered in 1887. Everything began with the modernization and repair of various telegraph equipment, but soon work begins with various electrical equipment.
At the very beginning of the 20th century, the company makes typewriters, which became the first in Japan. In parallel, since 1902, TANIGUCHI SANGYO has been carrying out numerous orders for the Navy.
Teydzo Taniguchi in 1905 was the first in the world to introduce a unique principle of selective assembly of mechanisms. More than two decades later, Ichiro Hayashi, who had the nickname Kentatsu, is the head of the company instead of him. And in a year the company gets a new name - KENTATSU DENKI.
Hayashi (Kentatsu) is developing life support systems for German submarines. In this sphere, the company becomes the leader in Japan.
Since 1941, in parallel with military production, KENTATSU DENKI has begun to produce refrigeration units for the food industry.
In the eighties, a significant expansion of production and modernization begins. And already in 1990 the newest unique technology of manufacturing of compressors is introduced. Patents for using revolutionary advances in the manufacture of compressors are bought by about twenty world-class companies.
And only since 1996 the corporation KENTATSU DENKI develops the development and manufacture of civilian products. Enterprises in large volumes supply units and components for popular manufacturers of consumer electronics and air conditioning equipment in Japan.
In 2002, the company becomes the holder of a certificate of compliance with the ISO 9001 standard. Such an achievement is the result of a well thought-out policy based on respect for the environment.
In 2003, the company's management made an important decision: it is time to enter the domestic Japanese market under its own name. It was in this year the first time the name KENTATSU you could see the settings for laparoscopy (medical equipment). Then the brand name appears on household and industrial air conditioning systems.
The next few years the world distribution network is developing widely. Subsidiary companies appear in Germany, Australia and the United States.
High quality and reasonable price make KENTATSU products popular and popular. At the same time, the company actively works in countries with completely different natural conditions.
All production and development are guided by the specific climate of specific countries. KENTATSU air conditioners are not only technically perfect and convenient to use, but also feature a versatile design that can harmoniously fit into almost any interior.
