Sumida Corporation: Global Leader in design and manufacture of coil-related components and modules
Sumida is a global leader in the design and manufacture of coil-related components and modules. Specializing in custom design solutions, Sumida’s products are used in a wide range of applications from consumer electronic devices through to home appliances, automotive electronics, green energy solutions, industrial electronics and medical healthcare devices and equipment.
Sumida’s core product scope includes components and modules such as power inductors and transformers, automotive keyless antennas, xenon ignitor modules, mobile communications equipment, radio frequency identification tags (RFID), power inverters for solar power generators and components for industrial lighting solutions. In addition, we also provide the related products and services such as magnetic materials, ceramics, flexible connectors and electronic manufacturing services (EMS).
Technological USP: With Sumida’s humble beginnings as a coil manufacturer for transistor radios in Japan, the company has grown in product diversity and in global reach. Sumida is able to support and supply the services to global customers with a wide range of products which span from basic coil components to more complex value-added modules.
The company’s R&D centers not only derive innovative technologies from Japan (Tokyo, Natori, Nagano and Nagoya) but also from Canada (Kingston) and Germany (Neumarkt, Obernzell and Radeberg). One of the manifestations of this strong focus on quality and innovation is seen in SUMIDA receiving the Honor quality award by Toyota Motor Corporation for excellent quality performance with no defect for 4 consecutive years.
Next levels of innovations: SUMIDA has many innovative products being developed in the fields of Automobile Components (Solenoid Coils, Keyless Entry Components, HEV/EV components, EV Chargers and Battery Management System Components), Consumer Electronics (Contactless charging components for Cellphones and various sensors) and Industrial Applications (RFID tags and sensors).
India as a big opportunity: From SUMIDA’s perspective, India is a strategic geography with tremendous potential. The Indian market can provide opportunities of explosive growth in automotive, consumer electronic and industry segments, which have been strongholds for SUMIDA. Components such as ABS and Solenoid Coils, Passive Entry Passive Start (PEPS) antennas and receivers, Car Lighting (LED headlights and indicators), Electric Vehicle (EV) components and charging components are a few key areas. Components for LED Lighting, Printers, Displays and many other consumer electronic appliances as well as components for Solar Power Inverters and RFID Tags are some SUMIDA products that can provide latest technology to these growing industries in India.
Your market strength in India: With over 60 years history in Asia and 80 years in Europe, our expertise in coil-related manufacturing, as well as technical design, allows us to offer our customers both customized design solutions as well as off-the-shelf products. In addition, comprehensive manufacturing capabilities and footprint allows the company to flexibly adjust product volumes and locations as required while maintaining consistent high-quality standards. SUMIDA plans to leverage its capabilities to assimilate within the growth story of Indian electronic component industry.
India as manufacturing and export hub: India has been the only country with a stable growth rate among the BRICs countries and under Prime Minister Modi’s “Make in India” campaign, there is a lot of interest in considering India as a manufacturing hub. Companies like Maruti Suzuki, Tata and Hero MotoCorp already have a proven track record of exporting vehicles worldwide. Regulatory steps to increase ease of business such as introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) are creating a conducive environment for businesses to thrive. It will be only a matter of time that India will become a significant location for manufacturing companies.
Marketing strategies in India: India is a strategic market for SUMIDA and its importance will only grow in the days to come. The automobile industry is moving towards high-end vehicles, hybrid and electric vehicles. Consumer Electronics industry and Solar Power industry are also showing remarkable growth. SUMIDA plans to focus on these opportunities of growth that can be explored by offering some of our key products that are best in class. Sumida is currently considering various models for expansion of business and as of now operate through distributors.
Your company’s plans for India: SUMIDA has some existing clients in consumer electronics and automobile space. The company plans to expand product offerings in Automobile space, introducing ABS coils, Solenoid Coils and various electronic components for the automobile industry as well as for Electric Vehicles. Similarly, Sumida would like to expand base of distributors to explore opportunities in consumer electronics as well as Solar Power Generation industry (specifically solar inverters). Company’s RFID products can also interest Indian customers in the IoT space.
