Kyocera International, Inc.

Information

Kyocera was founded in 1959 in Kyoto, Japan as a small suburban workshop and is a highly diversified global enterprise with over 83,000 employees today.

Developing innovative ceramic tools for the home has been important to Kyocera since the division’s inception in 1984. The Company’s drive to make high-quality products for the betterment of society reflects the philosophy of its founder, Dr. Kazuo Inamori, and his lifelong belief that “people have no higher calling than to strive for the greater good of humankind and society.”

In 2020, The Wall Street Journal named Kyocera as one of the “100 Most Sustainably Managed Companies in the World.” Additionally, Kyocera was included in “The A-List 2020” by the international non-profit CDP for Combatting Climate Change.

All of Kyocera’s ceramic blades are manufactured in a Sendai, Japan factory that uses solar power to offset energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions. Kyocera’s commitment to innovation has resulted in more than 24,000 active patents and pending applications worldwide that include more than 2,000 active patents and pending applications in energy-related technologies such as high-quality solar, power storage, fuel cells, new AI-powered technology solutions for Virtual Power Plants, and efficient renewable energy management.

New in 2023, Kyocera will introduce globally, a fresh new, colorful no-plastic retail package that emphasizes whole-food cooking and the key benefits of using ceramic knives for easy meal preparation. The interior cardboard inlay protects the blades in transit and can be used to store the knife after purchase which is a way to repurpose the insert.
