Fujikrism

Work creatively! Work challengingly! And never give up! That's Fujikrai-ism.

Ten years have passed since the joint research started in 1975. It was essentially a completely competitive field. This research came to an end with Fujikura winning the competition. The desire to "beat our rivals" was perfectly realized by sticking to the original intention. Moreover, it was also proof of the process of creating the "Fujikura-style de facto standard" that is not only comparable to domestic rivals, but also to global competitors. The reason for Fujikura's victory was...Work creatively! Work challengingly! And never give up! This was the result of thoroughly adhering to this Fujikuraism and pursuing it with unshakable determination.

Solid Photonic Band Fiber

Fujikura's success is not limited to Optcal Fiber and Optcal Fiber cables. For example, Fujikura plays a leading role in the construction of total optical communication systems, as well as in fusion splicers, for which it now holds the world's largest market share, optical transmission components, optical transmission equipment, and optical measuring instruments. In the field of cutting-edge technology, Fujikura continues to lead the world with technological achievements that further expand the possibilities of "light," such as the practical application of fibers with "zero" moisture content, and the development of "dispersion management fibers," "functional fibers such as panda fibers," and "photonic bandgap fibers."
