Everything begins and ends with you

We have become an international company by staying true to the philosophy of our founder – what we do emanates from our own predisposition to cause a positive impact on the individual and society as a whole. We have not deviated from that idea, which gives meaning to everything we do. We’ve come a long way since we began life as a small ceramics company in Japan, but we retain the same mentality – learning, growing, getting better – as individuals, as a company, as a part of society.

Kyocera developed into what it is today because it based on the bonds of human minds. Our founder used his insights to create a unique philosophy that we use every day as a cornerstone of our business.
