While Oryza Oil & Fat Chemical Co.,Ltd. is one of five rice bran oil manufacturers in Japan that can do everything from extracting the rice bran oil to refining it, we also manufacture functional materials used in products of various types, mainly Ingredients for food and functional foods, cosmetics, medical and pharmaceutical products, and fertilizer and feed.
Our expertise of high-mix production in variable quantities by utilizing a wide variety of machinery and solvents is a major strength of ours.
Also, as a manufacturer, we are aware that we have a great responsibility to be considerate of the environment and create a safe and secure local community where we can coexist. With that awareness, we strive to harmonize with the environment and local community.

Ocean resources are affected by water pollution and climate change. We use a treatment facility to treat the water we use in manufacturing so that it passes stringent standards.
We continue to protect the wealth of the ocean by preventing eutrophication and not causing water pollution.

In 2021, we switched all of our company lighting to LEDs, aiming to reduce annual CO2 usage by 34 tons.
Going forward, we will continue to work on concrete countermeasures against climate change to save energy and environment.

We have reviewed our product manufacturing methods and investigated our solvent usage ratio in order to take on this initiative to reduce solvent usage.
