Chuo Engineering Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Yutaka Ishida) opened its new office, the "Manufacturing Solution Center," in June 2026. This will strengthen our one-stop solution capabilities, which handle everything from specification review, design, manufacturing, to testing, enabling us to provide higher quality and more reliable products and services. Manufacturing Solution Center Exterior Background of the Opening Our company has leveraged its "one-stop solution service," which handles everything from proposal and consultation of specifications to design, manufacturing, and functional testing, as a core strength. In recent years, this business has continued to expand, particularly in the aerospace and defense sectors. Furthermore, especially in space-related fields, the need to complete processes requiring high environmental standards, such as cleanrooms, in-house has been increasing. It was also an important challenge to improve quality and speed up development by consolidating processes that were dispersed across multiple external partner companies and our own offices into a single location, and by creating an environment where designers could work adjacent to the manufacturing floor. To address these challenges, we have opened the Manufacturing Solution Center. Features of the New Office This center is a unified facility integrating a design room with manufacturing and testing areas, and in addition to a large design room, it is equipped with a large manufacturing space, a semi-cleanroom, and a testing area. The exterior is also distinctive, balancing an impressive design with the concept of diversity and universality for long-term use. The manufacturing and testing area employs a flexible layout to accommodate a wide range of projects, from large, single-item products to precision equipment. It includes a manufacturing space (600m2) equipped with a 4.8t overhead crane, and a precision equipment assembly room (100m2) with a 0.
