Business description
Founded in 1941 in Tokyo as an optical glass production plant, Hoya is one of the largest eyeglass lens manufacturers in the world. Leveraging its technology know-how in glass manufacturing, Hoya entered the mask blanks business in 1974. Now although its life care business accounts for 67% of its total revenue, almost half of its profit before tax comes from its higher-margin IT business.
