Against the backdrop of outstanding technological innovations, such as enhanced performance and functionality, the need for advanced, extensive electronic equipment is continuing to evolve. Since our founding in 1949, Matsuo Electric has excelled as a technology-based company. We were the first in Japan to manufacture and sell film capacitors in 1957, and tantalum capacitors in 1959. Since then, under our motto of “Quality First”, we have responded to the needs of generations through our reliable technology. In 1994, we started manufacturing and sales of chip-type circuit protection components that were the smallest in the world at the time. We currently manufacture and sell tantalum capacitors as our core product, as well as others including circuit protection components and film capacitors.
