■ Business Attitude
Harmony created between customers and ourselves
We will offer products and services to our customers and strive for their limitless satisfaction.

■ Corporate Culture
We nourish corporate culture filled with energy and communication
While recognizing that our employees are assets to the company, we will strive to fill our workplace with energy and communication. We will regard the company as a place where people can grow and find a sense of accomplishment.

■ Contribution to society
Successful results will be actively returned to society
We will work to create an affluent society through business activities, becoming a meaningful organization for our customers, shareholders, and local communities.

■ Development Principles
Unique but standardization-oriented ideas
We will offer high-quality products at reasonable prices, manufactured using unique and standardization-oriented ideas.

■ Resource Conservation
Our philosophy is to use limited resources repeatedly and effectively
We aim to effectively use the Earth''s limited resources, and strongly consider environmental conservation when manufacturing our products.

■ Code of Conduct
1. Careful Deliberation and Resolute Action
We work in a fast-paced environment of ever-changing times. To halt progress signifies taking a step backwards. Evolution is always required of us. In order to evolve, we must cultivate on a daily basis our ability to think and to rapidly convert ideas into action.

2. Pursuit of Speed
We consider good management to be defined by the promptness of leading-edge proposals and speed of execution. We believe business operations are optimal when rough-and-ready. In this respect we prioritize speed in all pursuits.

3. Perseverance
Once we commit to a task we must have the will and tenacity to follow through until the end. As we take on more difficult projects and see them through to completion, it becomes important to persevere through this cycle.

4. Customer Benefits
We will make every effort to deliver benefits promised to customers (energy and cost reduction, quality assurance) and fulfill the specified goals for the goods and services we supply. We consider work that does not yield customer benefits as meaningless, and we only undertake projects based on mutual understanding.

5. O.A.S Theory
We advocate the O.A.S (Organic Automation System) theory. The concept is to assemble products like building blocks, through standardized units. This enables the assembly of highly-reliable, economical devices in a short period of time.

■ Mission
Our Goals are to innovate production systems and lifestyles, to constantly create surprises, and to contribute to the world.

■ Continually evolve with aluminum
Since its founding, SUS has tackled aluminum as a material and repeatedly challenged and revolutionized its use. Aluminum is a new material that is light, rust-resistant, and non-magnetic. It is environmentally friendly and sustainable, and enables efficient reuse and recycling. We have focused on these attractive features of aluminum since our inception, and continued to engage in research to develop and manufacture products that can help promote the evolution of society. As a result, SUS has won the largest share of the global market for aluminum extrusion frames. However, we will never be complacent with this accomplishment. We will continue to expand and evolve our operations focusing on aluminum.

■ Foresee the future and change society
Labor shortage is an inevitable challenge facing humankind as a result of falling birthrates and aging populations around the world. Employers have sought rapid deployment of laborsaving, automation, and networking initiatives, in not only the manufacturing industry but also other industries, such as logistics, medical care, welfare, and services. Simultaneously, there has been an increase in demand for and interest in aluminum, a lightweight and maintenance-free material. We have anticipated the acceleration of the Internet of Things (IoT) and arrival of the era of artificial intelligence (AI) to meet the growing demand with steady supply. Meanwhile, we look toward the future to develop and create new solutions for generations to come.

■ The global standard aimed by SUS
We are committed to the global standard that all employees engage in a company''s operations with love and pride for the company''s products and services, as well as for themselves and their colleagues. Independent of corporate interests, SUS will create standards to serve as an index for the aluminum extrusion frame industry and build a platform to accelerate industry growth. This is our duty as a leader in the industry. From the start, we believe that this is the shortest route to the realization of a sustainable society. We, at SUS, continue to operate as one unit as we expand from Shizuoka to take on the world.
