The environment surrounding us is undergoing significant changes. Referred to as the VUCA era since the 2010s, numerous upheavals have occurred, and in the 2020s, a pandemic caused by a new coronavirus occured. Looking at the automotive industry, plans to ban the sale of gasoline-powered vehicles have been announced, particularly in Europe, signaling an era where only environmentally friendly cars will be able to be driven.

Additionally, global activities aimed at realizing a sustainable society are accelerating, as exemplified by the SDGs adopted at the United Nations Summit in September 2015. In order to achieve our goals, it goes without saying that the development of science and technology is essential.

At Qualtec, we offer "Total Quality Solutions" by combining the expertise of specialists covering a wide range of academic fields such as physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, and biochemistry, with engineers well-versed in design, development, production technology, and quality assurance.
