Super Resin: Shaping the future of industry through innovative materials

A pioneer in Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRP) molding, Super Resin has for over 60 years established its expertise in advanced composite materials offering one-stop solutions tailored to the requirements of its customers, including parts manufacturing for aerospace. equipment, LCD/OLED and semiconductor manufacturing equipment, industrial machinery, and defense (e.g. Radar Dome). 

"In addition to utilizing high quality composite product design and manufacturing technologies, we propose optimized one-stop solutions by applying advanced design technologies that cover every stage through electrical, mechanism, and optical design," explains Akio Asakura, President of Super Resin. "We now have over 60 years of experience specializing in FRP, firstly in Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics (GFRP) and later in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP), and throughout our history we have tended to produce high-mix-low-volume, providing cutting-edge technologies and products to the market."  

One of the unique projects associated with Super Resin is the Expo 70 in Osaka, the first ever 'world's fair' held in Japan and Asia.

"One of the symbols of the event was called The Tower of the Sun where we produced the Face of the Sun, and although it looks like it is made from concrete, it's in fact made of GFRP," says Mr. Asakura.

Fast forward to today and currently the company is engaged in numerous aerospace projects.
