Message from the President

On Feburary 28,the founder and owner of our company, President Fumitaka Matsukawa,passed away. I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your kindness extended to Fumitaka Matsukawa when he was alive.

I have succeeded the late Fumitaka Matsukawa as the president and representative director of Central Filter Mfg. Company as of March 18.

As our company celebrated its 50th anniversary of founding this year on January 24,

Mr. Matsukawa was in high spirits and had ambitions for the future. His death was sudden and unexpected, and we were all shocked by the news. As I succeed him as the president of Central Filter Mfg. Company, I will inherit the will of the predecessor and do my best to achieve furter business growth.

Massive upheavals are taking place on a global scale today due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the move toward carbon neutrality and the like, and our society as well as the environment are undergoing dramatic changes. What's more, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has exacerbated global instability even further. The end of the Russia-Ukraine conflict is nowhere in sight, and anything could happen anytime.

Under such circumstances, our company continues to keep itself firmly grounded and safeguard the “environment and health,”which is one of the policies our company is committed to since the establishment of the company. We strive to achieve further business growth and make greater society contributions through our efforts toward the realization ofcarbonneutrality.To those ends, we will continue to be innovative and diligent in our business endeavors.

We would appreciate your continued support and kind guidance.

March,2022
