The Porite Group in brief
One of the world leaders in the manufacturing of sintered mechanical parts.
Established in 1952 in Japan, the founder decided to focus his efforts on the manufacture of self-lubricating micro-rings. A powerful R&D department and numerous patents made him the world leader for electric motor manufacturers and other users of micro-rings.
The opening of our Taiwan plant in 1968 marked the starting point of a diversification strategy: with the manufacture of sintered mechanical parts for the automotive industry.
It is also our first export site, accounting for 80% of the plant’s sales, with Europe as its primary destination.
The Yangzhou plant in China was set up in 1994 and focuses its efforts on developing the domestic market. The company is recognized in China for its ability to support OEM and carmaker project teams in the development of sintered mechanical parts.
The automotive sector has become an important focus of the Group’s development, while maintaining a strategy of diversifying our business sectors: power tools, micro motors, household appliances and mechanical engineering.
In 1993, Porite Taiwan opened a subsidiary in the Paris region of France, Porite Europe, which became the operational interface for the French and European markets.
The Porite Group has become one of the world leaders in the manufacture of sintered mechanical parts, and is the world N°1 in the manufacture of self-lubricating micro-rings with internal diameters from 0.6mm to 3/4mm for micro-electric motor and other applications.
The Taiwan plant remains the reference site for the development of sintered mechanical parts, MIM, 3D printing and now metal foam.
