Using advanced technologies
and innovative ideas
to create functions that meet "more".
STARLITE has been actively taking on new technology fields while refining its fundamental technologies through the use of its cutting-edge tribology technology. With "materials", "design" and "manufacturing" at its core, we constantly anticipate market needs and create new functions through the development of unique products.
We value the venture spirit that has been passed down since our founding, and we pursue technology innovation with flexible ideas that are not bound by existing frameworks. Together with our business partners, we will continue to create new possibilities that can meet society's "more" and open up the future.

Research of Advanced Technologies
Through application research on tribology technologies, mainly engineering plastics, we are developing functional products embodying the concept of "Slide", "Hold", and "Protect". In addition, we will continue to contribute to the comfortable life around the world by developing new competent products taking the environment and ecology into consideration in various industries.
Lead to application based
on CAE analysis, and evaluation technologies
CAE analysis and analytical evaluation by specialists are aimed at providing highly reliable product solutions in a short period of time. CAE strengthens the accumulation of the correlation between the latest nonlinear simulation analysis and the serial production. In addition, our analytical technology supported by the modern apparatus accurately identifies problem and our in-house designed measuring instruments support our solution for the product design.



Collaboration and Cooperation Initiatives
TOMOTSUKU LAB is a platform for like-minded people to come together to create new values. This is a place where we nurture and support each other by connecting Starlite’s technology, information, and network with the partners we meet here. We are dedicated to creating new values in the areas of environment and energy, low birthrate and aging, disasters preparedness, and next-generation mobility.
