The establishment of the first joint venture in Sri Lanka marked a transformative moment for the tableware industry in the country. It ushered in a new era of progress, as Sri Lanka embraced cutting-edge technology and adopted Japanese management styles to elevate its manufacturing standards. This collaboration not only facilitated the transfer of expertise but also paved the way for consistent quality improvement across the industry. By blending traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation, Sri Lanka positioned itself as a formidable player in the global tableware market.
This landmark partnership not only showcased the nation's capacity for adaptation and growth but also laid the groundwork for a legacy of excellence that continues to resonate today.
The decision to establish a Noritake Lanka Porcelain Ltd, near Matale district in Sri Lanka was not merely happenstance; it was a strategic choice driven by the abundant availability of high-quality non-plastic raw materials, such as feldspar, quartz, dolomite, and calcite in the Matale district.
This proximity to raw materials not only streamlined the manufacturing process but also underscored Noritake's commitment to sustainability by minimizing transportation emissions. Thus, the Matale district became not just a location for production but a cornerstone of Noritake's dedication to craftsmanship, quality, and environmental stewardship.
