Taiwa Seiki was founded in 1976 by seven individuals who shared a common vision, beginning its journey with the development, manufacturing, and sales of rice milling machines for farmers.

Following the abolition of Japan’s Food Control Act in 1995, the company expanded its business into commercial rice milling machines and coin-operated rice milling systems. In recent years, coin-operated rice milling machines equipped with “Umami Milling” technology, which is designed to preserve the natural savoriness, have received high acclaim. In addition, the suction-type pneumatic conveying system known as “Clean Wind” has been recognized for its value not only within the rice industry but also across a wide range of fields, and is now widely used in plants throughout Japan.

Guided by the founder’s belief that “Even a small company should shine brightly,” we have continued to pursue the creation of technologies and value that distinguish us. This year, we are proud to celebrate our 50th anniversary. Our steady progress over the past half century has been made possible by the continued support of our customers, distributors, partner companies, and many others, to whom we express our sincere gratitude.

The environment surrounding rice continues to change with the times. There are periods of favorable conditions as well as times when we face strong headwinds. For this very reason, we believe it is our mission as a manufacturer to create lasting value by identifying what is essential and maintaining a clear focus on the future.

Together with everyone involved in rice production and distribution, we strive to deliver rice milling that contributes to the happiness of those who eat it—whether at production sites, in retail locations, or at family dining tables. Believing that each of these efforts contributes to richer dining experiences, a deeper food culture, and the sustainable development of the industry, we will continue to take on new challenges.
