Our History
After being recognized as a “Young Edison” at just 24 years old, Porite founder Tatsunosuke Kikuchi dedicated himself to mastering the fields of mining, metals and powder metallurgy. By 1952, he had obtained several patents and was ready to establish his own company, Tokyo Oilless Metal Industrial Co., Ltd. (later renamed Porite). His powder metallurgy products quickly gained a reputation for their quality and versatility. Just 10 years later, Kikuchi was ready to begin international expansion and opened Porite’s first overseas factory in Taiwan. Since that time, Porite has grown strategically, expanding to 7 total factories in 5 countries along with offices/warehouses on 3 continents. Although much has changed in the last 70+ years, Porite retains Tatsunosuke Kikuchi’s spirit of invention, ensuring that Porite remains on the cutting edge of powder metallurgy technology.
