Ever since YKK’s founding in 1934, the pillar of all YKK Group business activities has been the Cycle of Goodness® YKK Philosophy, which embodies our belief that no one prospers without rendering benefit to others.

As a good corporate citizen, we take our responsibilities toward society and our fair business practices seriously. We believe it is our important duty to respect diversity and cultures, customs, and viewpoints and play a role in the development of society through our business activities.  YKK is committed to helping build a more sustainable society through its main businesses. We expect to achieve this through implementation of the Cycle of Goodness™ YKK corporate philosophy and the management principle, “YKK seeks corporate value of higher significance.”
