QUI SOMMES-NOUS?
SHOWA : LE JUSTE ÉQUILIBRE
« Showa » en japonais signifie « trouver l’équilibre entre les différents éléments ». Ce principe est bien plus qu’une simple formule, il est au cœur de notre approche et requiert un contrôle total et permanent. SHOWA est la seule entreprise qui contrôle entièrement la conception et la fabrication de ses gants de protection. Jour après jour, SHOWA innove constamment pour proposer à chaque utilisateur un produit qui répond à ses attentes. Cette autonomie, totalement différente des méthodes et des concepts de nos concurrents, se base sur l’idée de dépasser ce qui a déjà été fait, pour que tous puissent bénéficier d’une sécurité maximale et d’un confort optimal.
Mr. Tanaka, the founder of SHOWA in 1954, embedded the following key elements in his founding philosophy and vision:
•“Corporate strength is gained with our respect for harmony, by taking responsibility for our actions and by focusing on being the best person we can possibly be within our individual capabilities.
•Each member of the SHOWA family must have integrity and the empowerment to build trusting relationships within our company and, equally important, with our customers.”
This business philosophy, when diligently practiced, inspires mutually prosperous connections with our customers.
Today, SHOWA is renowned for both quality and innovation. Our technology has forever changed our industry, what our hands are capable of and the impact we make on our environment. We have achieved this by utilizing the latest resources in technology, understanding PPE standards, and assuring our customers that we will not settle for anything less than the highest level of quality hand protection, every time. This foundational belief is one of the major reasons that SHOWA’s products are well-known, respected and worn by millions of people around the world. We pioneer the quality, performance and protection to give ordinary hands extraordinary abilities.
FUTURE-FOCUSED: ALWAYS INNOVATING. NEVER IMITATING
In 2014, SHOWA® implemented and launched a global rebrand, unifying the merger of SHOWA and Best Manufacturing into one name. The brand, hand logo and tagline reflects the modern and enduring characteristics of our great company. The font is unique to SHOWA and the fingers above the “O” represent a SHOWA glove former. The color pallet is a mixture of vibrant green, strong black and a bright white hue. The new tagline is a tribute to the pioneering spirit of our company and commitment to carry that same dedication into the future; “Always innovating. Never imitating” expresses an attitude and determination to bring new technologies and innovations to the marketplace. This is our commitment to our employees and our customers.
Today more than ever, SHOWA stands for the highest degree of hand protection and innovation. Our technology has forever changed our industry, what our hands are capable of and the impact we make on our environment.
We pioneer the quality, performance and protection to give ordinary hands extraordinary abilities.
