We are a group of medical device specialists led by TKB Corporation. “TKB” is the acronym of Tokyo Kikai Boeki Co.,Ltd., the original company in our group which was founded in 1955 and later renamed Tokibo Co., Ltd.
Chairman's Message
Inheriting the founder’s enduring determination to“ save as many lives as possible”, we, TKB Group Companies, are passionate in pursuing our mission in the field of medical devices which definitely influence how people will live. We not only import and sell state-of-art medical devices that meet international standards worldwide but also develop and manufacture our own products in two countries outside Japan. People tend to think that humans live only with free will. However, upholding the word “Vitality” as the corporate philosophy, TKB Group aims to conduct humane business practices in the medical field with the humble awareness that human existence is allowed by some other being.
The Group has a manufacturing company each in France and Italy and puts stress on the development and production of medical devices of its own brand. Also in the U.S., benefitting from the experiences of running a ventilator manufacturer for over 30 years since 1981, we have just started a project to establish a Groundbreaking business model. Since our foundation, employee education emphasized on character-building has been one of our Group’s primary focuses. Not only that, by actively posting younger staff in international business projects, we develop truly global-minded human assets for the next generation.
Our first priority is to provide our customers with the most reliable services of highest quality. Ahead of our industry peers in Japan, we acquired the international standard certification for quality assurance, ISO9002 in July 1998. Not only the two affiliated manufacturers but all the manufacturers we are dealing with are accredited with both ISO9001 and EN46001. We strive to comply with the latest standards available in every branch of our business: production overseas; importing business conducted by TKB Corporation; sales, rental, maintenance services offered by Tokibo Co., Ltd through its nationwide network. TKB Group will continue its efforts to improve the quality of services for a better future of healthcare.
