Finding alternatives to oil: Wetsuits made from plant-derived and even stone-derived material
Our company was founded by Keiichi Yamamoto, a scientist, who developed a wetsuit made from limestone. His aim was to develop a product derived from natural materials during the 1970s, a time when environmental consciousness was still nascent. Our wetsuits appeal to environmentally conscious users.

We hope some of the pupils who visit may one day work here
Factory tours by schoolchildren and others are often equally illuminating for us, the hosts, as they are for the pupils. These visits also have a constructive effect on our staff, as they give them a sense of satisfaction and positive feeling of nervous energy. We would love it if, in future, these pupils kept Yamamoto Corporation in mind when they look for a job and come to work with us.

Innovative color-coding system is simple and easy to understand
We export a lot of materials overseas, and sometimes people can’t read the numbers on the packaging.
The tags stating the thickness of the material have color coding as well as serial numbers to make identification easier. We aim to cover all the bases in our approach! -
