Furukawa Here and There

Even though you may not actually see the products of the Furukawa Electric Group that often, they are used in many familiar places. Furukawa Here and There is a series featuring astonishing stories about these products, told with a focus on different scenes and topics in daily living.

Vol.3 “Automobiles”

The Furukawa Electric Group uses a range of technologies—mainly focusing on copper, aluminum, plastic, and optical elements—to help evolve automobiles from various angles.

Special Issue “Furukawa's technology contributed to the discovery of the Higgs boson”

"Discovering Higgs boson, the 'God particle'?" - The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is excited about this news. Furukawa Electric aids CERN's experiments on Higgs boson with its superconducting magnet wires.

Vol.2 “Broadcasting”

We have built a presence in Latin America, where we build the highly reliable social infrastructure required for broadcasting. In our business, we call on the robust technologies and services, extensive experience, brand strength, and sales capabilities of Brazil FISA. Furukawa Electric's technologies are contributing to broadcasting, even on the other side of the world.

Vol.1 “Railways”

Efforts to shift to rail transport are underway in many countries, not only because of CO2 emissions but also because energy consumption is remarkably small with railway transport compared to other modes of transportation. The Furukawa Electric Group has supported rail travel in Japan since its dawn.
