Mobility (Automobiles and Motorcycles)
We offer total support from color mixing instructions to color approval of paints for automobiles and motorcycles. With our extensive experience and suppliers, we can bring new value to painting.
This paint for mobility is essential to the appeal and quality of automotive and motorcycle products. Uchigen provides all materials and technical services necessary for painting, through "paint sales" delivering the paints necessary for the customer’s painting process at the best timing, and "technical support" providing integrated support from the development of new colors to follow-up on the post-production site.
"Everything will be alright if you leave it to Uchigen." Total support backs up these words from customers
Paint Sales Business
We propose special paints that are optimal for each automotive and motorcycle manufacturer. After mass production starts, we carefully manage the inventory of each paint based on the customer’s production plan. We contribute to stable production by preventing quality degradation due to supply delays and excess inventory. We also offer a wide variety of painting-related products, including painting devices, masking, and abrasives, enabling us to propose and provide all materials related to painting work sites.Technical Support
The strength of Uchigen’s paint and painting solutions lies in our ability to develop the paints that customers are trying to achieve through teamwork from the design stage. Experienced color engineers interview our customers about their design concepts and work with paint manufacturers to create the "ideal color" while making repeated fine adjustments.Uchigen's Technical Support

Uchigen's 3 Strengths
01
STRONG POINT
Standing in the work sites as a "color engineer", we meet all of your painting needs
Paint is a "semi-finished product" that is completed only when it is properly applied. Even when using the same paint, the finish can vary slightly due to differences in painting conditions such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, and time between processes. At Uchigen, our sales staff act as "color engineers" with extensive knowledge of and experience with paints, working closely with customers to help them realize their ideal painting needs. We can meet all kinds of needs, such as approval of new colors involving technical terms, launching new lines, changing paint conditions after mass production starts, and addressing any issues in the unlikely event of a problem.02
STRONG POINT
With our in-house paint mixing factory, we offer timely delivery of optimal paint
One of the reasons Uchigen can provide support that sets us apart from regular trading companies is the presence of our own paint manufacturing factories (Color Centers) in two locations: Sayama City, Saitama Prefecture and Fukuroi City, Shizuoka Prefecture. By connecting customers with paint manufacturers and directly incorporating their requests into the manufacturing process, we achieve high color mixing accuracy. We also respond to sudden production plan fluctuations with a flexible manufacturing system.03
STRONG POINT
Uchigen quality for global production
Uchigen has bases in Indonesia and Mexico, where many Japanese companies are currently expanding, and provides painting solutions mainly to Tier 1 manufacturers among Japanese automotive manufacturers. In addition to supplying materials and painting technology that have been established in Japan, we also provide technical support integrated with our customers' on-site operations to help them achieve the same quality and process efficiency as they have in Japan.CONTACT Inquiries about
