Our Challenge
The latest efforts to realize the dreams of the IHI Group, that has taken on various challenges
We work in a wide range of fields, starting with shipbuilding before expanding to on-shore machinery and aerospace. Our in-house development team in Japan made dreams become reality with aerospace projects, such as aero engines and rockets, that were said to be impossible. With our technical abilities on full display, we continue to tackle difficult manufacturing challenges. Going forward, we are creating value in four business areas.
