  Corporate History

In July 1972, a part of Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.’s Analysis Division became independent and formed Sumika Chemical Analysis Service (SCAS), a 100%-owned separate entity. SCAS began with environmental assessment as its business operation core.
We subsequently enhanced and expanded other functions and businesses, including evaluations of physical properties and R&D support operations.
In November 1997, we established our first overseas affiliate in Singapore: SCAS SINGAPORE PTE LTD (SCASS). SCASS began providing Sumitomo Chemical’s MMA and acrylic acid business with analytical services on a contract basis.

modern civilization.

we will contribute to the creation of a bright future

  Corporate Policies

Policies and guidelines for corporate activities to implement the above principles:

1. Completely dedicating ourselves to enhancing customer satisfaction.
Our customers come from virtually all industrial sectors and have their own distinct corporate cultures. To meet their expectations, we will focus on each industrial sector from the organizational as well as the operational perspective to respond to the needs of our customers -and of the society of which they are a part- in tangible form through our analytical products and corporate projects, which we deliver as CS to our customers.

2. Creating a distinct corporate culture as an analytical service provider.
Being an organization of highly skilled experts, we significantly contributes to society as a whole. To conduct technological development as well as efficient and diverse operations in an industrial sector that maintains its independence in the context of rapidly changing demand, we need the courage and the strength to anticipate future trends. We must proactively accept challenges without fearing change, and as individuals transform our efforts into the personal motivation to work.

3. Become a stronger, more energetic company.
We strive to become the world’s leading company by encouraging all our employees to enhance their technological strengths in the broadest sense. To achieve this, we will incorporate the technologies and skills of other industries, rather than clinging to conventional ways of conducting business or R&D, and aim to raise the production efficiency of our high-level technological know-how through active discussions and bold creative endeavors.

4. Striving to attain the pride and confidence born from making a contribution to society through our specialized skills and technologies.
Our day-to-day activities are carried out in strict compliance with the confidentiality agreements with our customers, the relevant laws and the proper rules. Through the development of our specialized skills and technologies, we provide valuable support to our customers’ technological development and production processes, ultimately contributing to the public good and to the protection of the environment. As individuals devoted to these goals, we pledge to continuously improve our knowledge and skills, adhering to and defending our high ethical standards with pride as specialized professionals.
