Hiroshi Taguchi talks about M&A’s

At the IOMA General Meeting held in Hong Kong at the end of last October Japan Industrial Gas Association (JIGA) brought up the problem of safety concerning the oxygen compressors used in air separation units. It was resolved that JIGA and the European organization EIGA, working in conjunction, should come up with a new policy. Taiyo Nippon Sanso president Hiroshi Taguchi thought very highly of this.

‘This is the very first Japanese proposal of an issue, and if a policy is drawn up together with EIGA, then this will probably be done in English. We are thinking of having one of our native speaker technicians from the U.S. take part in this. Might this also not be very significant in demonstrating a Japanese presence in the organization?’

The point of view of Taiyo Nippon Sanso which is aiming at, becoming an Asian gas major, is that the company needs to be concerned about the slight differences in degree in globalization, depending on the country. Be that as it may, just because they are earning 10% of their sales in the U.S. and Asia, he is a manager who is most aware of the discrepancy with the majors.
