Company History
| 1970 | May | Union Showa K.K. was founded as a joint venture between Showa Denko K.K. and *Union Carbide of United States. The Company built a plant in Yokkaichi Mie-Pre and began the production of Molecular Sieves, making use of technology introduced from *Union Carbide Corporation. |
|---|---|---|
| 1974 | Dec | The Company was merged with Showa Unox, a member of the same financial group engaged in the environmental improvement business. The corporate name was changed to Showa Unox. |
| 1980 | Mar | The merger relationship was dissolved, and the company restored its original business category and original company name. |
| 1988 | Aug | *Union Carbide, parent company on the U.S. side, founded UOP in cooperation
with **Allied Signal Inc., and handed over its catalyst, adsorbent and processing
system business, including the Molecular Sieves business, to the new Company. As a result, Union Showa is currently carrying out the Adsorbent and Molecular Sieves business as a member of UOP Group. *Union Carbide = Dow Chemical (present company) **Allied Signal = Honeywell (present company) |
