BIG Kaiser

In June of 2003, with a significant expansion of its commitment to the North American market, BIG Daishowa Seiki Co. Ltd., a global tooling manufacturer based in Osaka, Japan, formed a new strategic alliance with BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc. To recognize the importance of this new strategic alliance, KPT/Kaiser has been renamed BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc.

Our experience is that customers ask for total tooling solutions, for that reason, the global market urgently requires more and more cooperation to be able to fulfill the respective customer needs. Therefore, BIG and Kaiser have decided to deepen their cooperation in the North American market. BIG Daishowa’s President and Chief Executive Officer T. Komine said: “We welcome this opportunity to partner with KPT to expand our business and to offer our new products not presently sold in North America.
