Co-creation Activity
Co-creating the Future Envisioned by Our Customers
DNC makes co-creation efforts conducting research and design together with automakers.
The phrase “exceed expectations” in the corporate philosophy refers to Monozukuri based on the concept of understanding the customer’s vision of the automobiles they desire to make and providing products that exceed their expectations, rather than the belief that it is sufficient to make parts in accordance with the customer’s specifications.
Through co-creation activities, DNC will continue to give shape to any vision and create products that exceed the expectations of its customers.
KEYWORD-05
Sustainability
Build a Sustainable Society by Our Hands
There are two main approaches to solving social issues with plastics: one is to replace metal with plastics; the other is to modify plastics. In addition, to solve problems that cannot be solved by our company alone through Monozukuri, we will remain committed to creating innovation and revitalizing the local community through industry-academia-government collaboration.
Switching from Metal to Plastics
We have changed numerous production items from metal to plastics. Plastics are advantageous in that they are light, have a high degree of freedom in shape, and provide insulation. Utilizing these advantages, we help reduce CO2 emissions owing to the light weight of plastics and improve aesthetics in design.
Modifying Plastics
To mitigate environmental issues such as CO2 emissions, interest has developed in the use of plastics made from renewable biological resources in place of plastics derived from petroleum. DNC manufactures interior and exterior parts using plant-derived plastics and makes development efforts to expand the range of their use.
