We are pleased to announce that Mr. Yutaka Okano, Sub Manager of the Sales Engineering Department at TOYO-RO, has received the “Distinguished Inventor Award” presented by the Governor of Osaka.

Mr. Okano has been actively engaged in improving mesh belts for material handling conveyor systems and obtained a joint patent in collaboration with Hara Metal Mesh Corporation.

His efforts and contributions were highly recognized, leading to this prestigious award.

The award ceremony was held on April 15 at the Osaka Prefectural Government building, in the Grand Hall (Seicho-no-Ma). The venue featured impressive stained glass ceilings, elegant interior decorations, and beautiful chandeliers, creating a formal and distinguished atmosphere.

Despite the rain, Osaka Castle could be seen from the windows.

Although the Governor of Osaka was unable to attend due to official duties, the ceremony maintained a dignified yet welcoming atmosphere. At the moment of the award presentation, the hall was filled with warm applause.

All of us at TOYO-RO are greatly encouraged by this recognition and will continue to dedicate ourselves to further innovation and improvement.

We sincerely appreciate your continued support and guidance.
