Shibata creates new value through its diverse businesses and fine bubble technology.

Heritage & Innovation

Building Businesses for the Needs of Each Era.

Since its founding in 1968, Shibata has diversified its businesses to meet the changing needs of the times.

Beginning with service station operations, we expanded into the wholesale of car wash supplies, the development, manufacture and sale of ultrafine bubble technology, and the supply of industrial pure water systems.

By adapting to market changes and continuing to build businesses that meet real needs, we aim to become a company that thrives for 100 years and beyond.
