Japanese maker of industrial pumps and of dialysis machines used by hospitals and dialysis clinics.
Japanese maker of industrial pumps and of dialysis machines used by hospitals and dialysis clinics.
Sells cryogenic pumps used to move liquefied gases such as LNG, and dialysis machines, in two very different markets. The pumps are made to order for large gas projects, while dialysis machines are sold to hospitals and clinics that then buy the disposable items each treatment needs.
In one line: A pump-and-dialysis combo like a smaller Fresenius Medical Care plus Flowserve.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, installed base, regulatory licence). Niche cryogenic pump engineering plus a regulated, recurring dialysis-consumables business.
