Shimizu celebrated its 220th anniversary in November 2023. Novare’s mission is to inherit the DNA of knowledge, technology, and human resources cultivated over the long history and tie it into innovations.

The five facilities that comprise Novare work both independently and collaboratively, bringing together knowledge from Japan and overseas to create a place for new invention. In other words, it is also a place where various new technologies are introduced in field trials.

The facilities have taken on the challenge of monozukuri (superb craftsmanship) with new processes that reduce labor, materials, and environmental impact, aligning with modern societal circumstances and environmental needs. Here, we introduce three examples of future monozukuri that make use of 3D printers in different ways.
