Corporate StrategyNippon Sheet Glass Corporate Mission ¡¦
"To create new, more comfortable living spaces for the information-oriented society of the future"
Nippon Sheet Glass's (NSG) strategy is to create glass with new potential. As part of this strategy, NSG grows and expands by melding the company's own creative resources with the intelligence it gathers from fields other than those in which it operates. This concept is a critical thread in NSG's corporate planning and strategic decision making to compete in the information-oriented society.
As creator of the SELFOC Lens, Nippon Sheet Glass (NSG) manufactures and distributes more gradient-index lenses than anyone else in the world. Developed over 25 years ago, the SELFOC Lens has revolutionized the industries of fiber optic communications, medical imaging and document reproduction by providing a modern alternative to conventional glass optics. The world's first "self-focusing" lens is recognized worldwide as a unique, convenient and economical solution to many optical design challenges.
By building on NSG's material and manufacturing expertise, the company extended its leadership role by introducing Original Opti-Sourcing[trade]. This program delivers custom solutions to enhance quality, minimize risk and drive down cost, allowing customers / partners to focus on what they do best. NSG has evolved from a conventional materials supplier into a full service micro-optics solution provider.
