Thinner has become available, but naphtha imports in August are less than 80% of the previous year's amount. This explains the background behind the delays in paint delivery.
I hear that the spring shortage has settled down, but the delivery times for paint have not returned to normal. Are you having trouble trying to request urgent painting? 【What is happening now】 As of September, the situation for acquiring thinner is gradually improving. On the other hand, according to a report from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, naphtha imports in August 2026 were 77.8 percent of the same month the previous year, and overall supply was at 87.4 percent. The raw materials for paint are still being supplied in smaller quantities than the previous year. 【Common issues on the ordering side】 □ The more specific the color or the more specialized the paint, the longer it takes to arrive. □ The more urgent the request, the more challenging it becomes to arrange for paint. 【Countermeasures you can take starting today】 1. Decide whether to allow alternative brands for specified paints. 2. For urgent parts, consult about colors that have paint in stock. 【Free materials】 We have compiled the details of our baking paint services in the related catalog "Baking Paint Services."

Company information
We are not just a "subcontracted painting factory." Established in 1958, our company has a foundation of painting technology and also specializes in chemical treatment, stripping, and cleaning, functioning as the "external surface treatment department" in your organizational chart. Based on our philosophy of "preparation is eight-tenths of the work," we emphasize participation from the "upstream process" before the drawings are finalized. We conduct test painting on a wide range of metals and difficult materials, and we produce the entire process from assembly, packaging, to delivery, thereby reducing your management workload. Additionally, by being able to perform zinc phosphate treatment in-house, we achieve stable painting quality. Furthermore, our micro-heating stripping technology, which does not use chemicals, maintains the electrical state of the "jigs (hangers)" that influence painting quality. Our approach of "pre-treatment determines painting quality" ensures the stability of the paint film during mass production. Rather than simply "applying specified standards," we work backwards to achieve optimal painting specifications and prevent scratches during transportation, sparing no effort in thorough discussions from the outset. This diligent preparation is the shortest path to preventing rework and minimizing total costs. From the development stage, please utilize the expertise of our specialists as part of your production line.
