GREETING

Since its establishment in 1885, KINCHO has been creating products, mainly insecticides, that help people live more comfortable, enriched and healthy lives.

Our earliest invention is the world’s first mosquito coil, with pyrethrum flowers as the main active ingredient, but we have since continued to meet the ever-changing demands of the times. We have developed bug sprays, plug-in mosquito repellents, and recently, even a mosquito insecticide that doesn’t require fire nor electricity – not settling for status quo and always moving forward.

This commitment to progress is embodied by our rooster logo, and the meaning behind it: “Better to be the head of a rooster than the tail of an ox”.

Now, we are using the technology and knowledge gained from insecticides to develop household products, gardening supplies and pharmaceuticals, all with the goal of improving your everyday lives.

Our approach to manufacturing has remained unchanged from the beginning – products are designed to be not only effective and safe for humans, but also considerate of nature and our ecosystem.

We hope to contribute to people worldwide, by developing more revolutionary products under the same motto: “In the past and in the future, quality always comes first.”
