PROFILE |
 |
"Give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves," is a statement that doesn't apply to Tokyo Rope Mfg. Co. The company has been making fiber rope and wire since 1887 and is still alive and kicking. It also makes steel cord and wire rope used in diverse industries, including mining, and to make products such as automobile tires. Steel wires and ropes make up more than 60% of sales. Fiber ropes account for only about 5%. The company's specialty products include guard cables used in construction and cables for suspension bridges. Tokyo Rope operates nine subsidiaries in Japan and one in the US. ATR Wire & Cable, the company's US subsidiary, makes steel cords used in manufacturing tires.
