Construction Business

Our membrane structural products and technologies bring freedom and flexibility
to architecture and functional comfort to industry.
We will further pursue the characteristics of membranes to create attractive buildings
that brightly illuminate our lives, society, people, and the earth.

We boast the world's top market share in membrane structural projects.
We create flexible and dynamic comfortable spaces that cannot be created with reinforced concrete.

Taiyo Kogyo Corporation has been involved in large domes and other large-scale membrane structural buildings covering transportation facilities, school gymnasiums, etc.
They have the advantage of enabling architectural freedom that could not be achieved with conventional materials, while also reducing construction and lighting costs.

Features of membrane structural buildings

Realizing wide open spaces

Membrane materials are extremely lightweight compared to conventional building materials. Membrane structural architecture can take advantage of its lightness to create vast spaces with no columns.

Realizing bright spaces with high light transmittance

Membrane structural buildings can be constructed with lightweight material composition, thus reducing transportation costs and shortening the construction period. White membrane materials also contribute to reduced lighting costs due to their high translucency.

Enabling labor savings at construction sites

Compared to other buildings, construction of membrane structural buildings is easier and can be completed in a shorter period of time, requiring fewer workers. This will help solve the problem of labor shortages in the construction industry and reduce labor costs.

Contributing to reduction of environmental impact

Compared to buildings that use many metal or concrete components, membrane structural buildings are lightweight and require fewer materials, greatly reducing the environmental impact of transportation. After completion, the highly translucent white membrane roofs will secure brightness, reducing daytime lighting use and power consumption.

Strengths of
the construction
business

Thorough pursuit of the unique characteristics of membranes

Membranes have the characteristics of being flexible, lightweight, allowing light to pass through, and capable of covering a wide area and wrapping an object. Since our founding, we have continued to pursue ways to take advantage of the unique characteristics of membranes. The attractiveness of membranes is the starting point and at the same time the greatest strength of our business.

Outstanding manufacturing and construction capabilities

We have plants operating at three locations in Japan, and can provide a full range of services from planning to design, manufacturing, and construction of membrane structural buildings. Our technical staff, who are well versed in the characteristics of membranes, utilizing the experience that they have accumulated over time, demonstrate their construction capabilities to meet our customers' needs.

Industry-leading R&D and design technology

We have the Technical Research Center, the only one of its kind in the industry, which is responsible for research and development of membrane structure technology and materials. From development of materials to development of various products, including titanium dioxide photocatalytic membranes, light-storing membranes that store sunlight during the day and emit light at night and environmentally friendly membrane materials using kenaf, we contribute to our customers with our unique development and technical capabilities.
