We have grown
as a business
President and CEO
by working with customers to develop new and innovative products.

Its always been that way our initial impetus for growth came when a
friend of our founder suggested that he try to develop a high-speed
timer for X-Ray photography.
That cooperative spirit has become part of our company DNA. We listen
to our peers and involve them in our product-development actions. It
sets us apart from others and makes us and our customers much
stronger.
So demand and expect more from us. That way, we will continue
to develop the products, systems and solutions that can help us create
tomorrows opportunities.

Working for the benefit of society
Contributing to a sustainable society by
weighing the economic, environmental,
and social impact of our actions.
The Sinic Theory

First proposed by Omrons founder Kazuma Tateisi in 1970, SINIC theory defines how society, science and
technology mutually impact and influence each other. Science enables new technology that helps society;
while societys needs encourage both technological developments and scientific discovery. Its a dialogue
that continues to this day, underpinning relationships between us and our customers, between engineers
and end-users, machine-makers and consumers. It fires our imagination, and enables your creativity.
To the machine, the work of the machine.

To man, the thrill of further creation.
Kazuma Tateisi, founder of Omron
