- About Us
- Start of a challenge
- Nifco Korea Inc. was established in 1985 when the Korean economy has dramatically grown: in 1980s, the automobile and electric/electronic industries were emerged as a new driving force for the development of Korean economy as well as production efficiency was prioritized formass production. At that time, we became conscious of minimizing input components into assembly line, proactively developing the products that met the customers’ demands. In particular, the fasteners manufactured with the creative manufacturing knowhow based on the features of plastics that were light-weighted, non-corrosive, and available in precise process drove to simplify manufacturing process and cut costs in the automobile and home appliance industries, largely having contributed to improving production efficiency. As such, the products made with our Fastening Idea were a starting point of quiet revolution in a hidden place in the industry.
- Growth and development
- In line with the foundation, the company first released the fastener products in Korea, which was followed by the establishment of the differentiated product lines in 1990s such as dampers, latches, and hinges – the functional motion control product – and buckles and adjusters reliable in an extreme environment – the products for outdoor, sports, and fashion, and by the focus on the automobile industry in 2000s developing high-quality built-in parts such as air vents, cockpits, consoles, and facia and supplying next-generation washer systems, etc. cultivating the specialty as an automotive parts manufacturer. In 2010s, the company has expanded its business into high-quality engine and fuel system parts as well as parts for Electric Vehicle and established overseas corporations in major regions around the world, securing the comparable capability as a global manufacturer.
- Dreams come true
- Nifco Korea endeavors to become a leading company in the engineering plastic part sector through the all-directional innovation and improvement. Since we have grown with a challenge spirit sufficiently to go beyond the limitations for a while, we have been deeply engraved of a crisis-overcoming DNA despite the company’s short history. No matter how challenging the incoming circumstances may be, it is thought as usual that we can overcome any difficulty with an indomitable spirit of the members of the company. Furthermore, every employee of the company dreams of making such company where every member are healthy and which takes all social responsibilities for the society and environment to which we belong, thereby becoming a company that loved and respected by more and more people.
