Company history
Introduction
Our company was founded in June 1972 as a seller of various types of meteorological and hydrological instruments, such as rain gauges and river water level gauges.
Since then, we have been engaged in the sale, installation and maintenance of instruments for numerous customers, including government agencies and electric power companies. Considering our future development as a company, in 1986 we also began to operate as a developer and manufacturer of instruments. With guidance from the Hydrology Laboratory of the Public Works Research Institute of the Ministry of Construction, we began to develop and manufacture data collection units.
In keeping with the trend of the times toward reducing power consumption and saving labor, we have made great efforts to develop new products and to round out our lineup of peripheral devices, and our company has continued to show good results
Humankind is today caught up in the midst of a great wave of change and is looking forward toward the growth of a stable society based on new values.
We have formed an imaginative "future vision" as a developer of measuring instruments, and consider it our mission to make great efforts to make that vision a reality.
Osasi Technos works in the limited field of measurement, but is continuing to propose new ways to add value as its contribution to creating a prosperous and stable society.
