Message from the President

Our company was established in 1998 as the Japanese subsidiary of Schneider Toshiba Inverter, a global integrated company in the field of general-purpose inverters, formed as a partnership between Toshiba Corporation and Schneider Electric of France. By combining Toshiba’s power electronics and drive technologies with Schneider Electric’s industrial control unit technology, and by maximizing the synergy between our companies in the areas of marketing, development, and capabilities for manufacturing and quality, we have steadily grown since our establishment.

We develop through collaborations in Japan, France, China, and other regions globally, and carry out mass production in various parts of the world, primarily at our major factories in Indonesia, China, and India. Within Japan, we also do adapted production to the individual needs of our customers, and are able to manufacture in the optimal location according to the circumstances, which is one of our company’s unique advantages.

Motors and inverters continue to evolve day by day. It is estimated that about 40 to 50% of the world’s energy consumption is by motors, and inverters can optimally control those motors to achieve significant energy savings and reduce CO2 emissions. Not just at the present moment, but going forward 20, 30, or 50 years from now... We are confident that our products can enrich people’s lives, protect our global environment, and contribute to achieving a sustainable society.

Our mission is to remain a company the world needs—now and in the future.

President, Toshiba Schneider Inverter Corporation:
