Abstract

Materials and Environments Laboratory Inc. is the 7th company among 36 venture businesses born from Hiroshima University. Its concept and business plan were conceived while the author was working as a professor of the university. Its main job is corrosion and protection consultation based on experience and intelligence of corrosion engineering. It was established in May, 2002 under the advisory help from six professors of four universities.
The company has its own management concept :
1. Do best for the client companies.
2. Sincere consultation and no rejection of any corrosion related problems, therefore, covering wide ranges of corrosion patterns and metallic materials.
3. Make efforts for developing its own corrosion monitoring system and technique.
Many pleasures induce us in doing our consultation business :
1) Contribution not only domestically but also abroad in corrosion consultation and education of corrosion engineering etc.
2) Challenge the world first production system with knowledge of corrosion, e.g. decomposing organic chloride wastes in the sub-critical condition.
3) No age barrier in doing jobs. While we can give appropriate consultation service to customers, we will be able to continue our job without any consideration of aging.
4) Dream of developing a new technology with our client companies.
