Musical Instruments

We carefully handle each and every material of the instrument, achieving high-grade painting that responds to the sensitivities.
Musical instruments are made of various materials, such as brass, iron, resin, and primarily wood. Painting technology unique to musical instruments is required in order to maintain their musical characteristics and aesthetic appearance. Uchigen offers painting solutions that match all factors that affect acoustic properties, such as the optimum paint and painting method for each material, and the thickness of the paint film. With these solutions we contribute to the creation of products that not only bring joy to playing music, but also to the feel of the instrument and the joy of owning it.

Uchigen's painting solutions for musical instruments add color to the charm of musical instruments, from tone to feel

Paint on a musical instrument is an important element that enhances its acoustic properties, improves its beauty, and ensures its durability. Furthermore, the tactile feel of the parts that come into contact with the hands supports the player's delicate musical expression, further enhancing the unique presence of the instrument.
As such, musical instrument paints are characterized by a high degree of "sensory performance" among industrial paints, and their manufacturing and painting require special knowledge and experience. Uchigen leverages its strength as a paint engineering trading company, which connects customers and paint manufacturers with technology, to provide painting solutions that are optimal for all materials and processes. We are focused on increasing added value, including proposals for more environmentally friendly paints and auxiliary materials to improve paint quality.

Uchigen's 2 Strengths

01
STRONG POINT

We offer finely detailed support for material characteristics that differ from lot to lot

Among various musical instruments made from different materials, Uchigen specializes in wooden instruments such as guitars, pianos, and woodwind instruments. Wood in wooden instruments plays an important role in making sounds in the instrument and is greatly influenced by the quality of paint, how it is painted, and the thickness of the paint film. Since wood is a natural material, the characteristics differ depending on the lot, and it is necessary to fine-tune the painting conditions each time. Uchigen works closely with customers to get a detailed understanding of what is happening on the line and what will happen in the future, and supports the stable quality of wooden instruments, which are made from natural materials.
02
STRONG POINT

Ability to make a wide range of proposals that increase the value of the painting process

In recent years, even in the world of musical instruments people have been paying close attention to high-performance paints, such as environmentally friendly water-based paints, natural paints, and clear paints that enhance durability while bringing out the best in the materials. In addition, in the wood painting process, the base polishing and finishing processes are done by hand, so the workload and quality can vary greatly depending on the type of paper and wax used. Based on the extensive experience Uchigen has cultivated in industrial painting solutions, we select the latest paints, papers, waxes and other auxiliary materials that are best suited for musical instruments, helping to improve both quality and efficiency throughout the entire painting process.
