「Increased sales of building materials featuring wallpaper printing and surface-functional coatings, together with orders for new projects, resulted in net sales of ¥1,197 million, up 34.6% year on year, and gross profit of ¥191 million, up 58.3%.」
Although the risk of shrinking demand for building materials remains, wallpaper printing, building materials with surface-functional coatings, and orders for new projects resulted in higher revenue and profit in the building materials business. - FY2026Declining housing starts coexist with higher building-materials salesAnnual report
「Orders for building materials with surface-functional coatings declined with the decrease in housing starts. However, sales of relatively high-margin products remained firm, and new orders contributed, resulting in revenue of ¥1,995 million, up 4.5% year on year.」
Although the contraction in building-materials orders accompanying the decline in housing starts continued, higher-margin products and new projects drove revenue growth for the building-materials business overall. - FY2026-H1WorsenedAnnual report
「Due to a decline in housing starts, particularly the slowdown in new starts of detached houses, demand for building materials for residential interiors contracted. Orders for building materials with surface-functional coatings for detached houses and printing for wallpaper declined, resulting in revenue of ¥889 million, down 11.0% year on year, and gross profit of ¥121 million, down 22.8%.」
The mature-industry and demand-contraction risk has materialized, with fewer housing starts and a slowdown in new detached-house construction leading to lower demand for building materials, fewer orders, lower revenue and lower profit. - FY2021WorsenedAnnual report
