In the past few years, the shipbuilding industry as a whole has seen a trend of increased demand for production. This upward trend has been driven by the rapid economic growth of China and the increase in worldwide resource transportation. On the other hand, China and Korea’s enhanced supply capacity is creating a more competitive market. This factor, combined with tighter shipping regulations, and the increased prices of building material have created many obstacles. Overcoming these obstacles in the future is a central challenge for the continued development of our business.
Shin Kurushima Dockyard currently focuses on manufacturing
high value-added midsize vessels (e.g. car carriers, chemical
tankers, and product tankers). Our strength lies within our
unique capabilities of designing, engineering, and manufacturing
midsize vessels; therefore, we should continue to drive our
enterprise forward with a different goal from Chinese and
Korean shipbuilders, who generally operate on a much larger
scale. Thanks to the division of labor and the long-term
relationship, based on mutual trust, among our group of companies,
we are also equipped with an efficient production system,
which is a great asset and strength.
At Shin Kurushima Dockyard we believe in efficient quality
service. We firmly believe that a safe and secure shipbuilding
process, systematic operation, and timely delivery schedule
are the best means to be cost-effective, while still insuring
the highest quality.
We place particular value on our internal communication.
Constant smooth and detailed communication between staff
from various levels and departments, such as Marketing, Design,
and Production, enables the staff to share up-to-date information.
Because there is such efficient communication, we can constantly
adapt and reform our corporate strategy. Good communication
is one of our greatest assets and a pillar of our success.
Also, being well aware that skilled and motivated people
are the dynamic element in any successful business, we never
forget the importance of training capable employees. Therefore,
we make every effort to provide our staff with opportunities
to continue developing their professional knowledge and skills.
These opportunities include overseas study programs and field
exercise curricula on various types of vessels.
Shin Kurushima Dockyard is strongly committed to future
business development. Our development is based on surpassing
our customers' expectations through every employee's contribution
to a successful and efficient organization.
