Mitsubishi Rayon Company, Limited
 PROFILE
As much as we might have wished for it, polyester didn't go out with the 1970s. With leisure-suit demand at an all-time low, Mitsubishi Rayon makes man-made fibers, resins and plastics, chemicals, and specialty products. Along with polyester and acrylic fibers, the company's man-made fibers include Pylen, a recyclable material used for interior decoration and automobile interiors. Chemical products include fertilizers and soil stabilizers. The company's specialty products include plastic optical fibers, circuit boards, and water filtration systems. Mitsubishi Rayon is part of the Mitsubishi "keiretsu," a group of firms affiliated through extensive cross-ownership.
