Koito Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Michiaki Kato) has announced the completion of the reconstruction of "Chiyoda Dormitory" (Aoi-ku, Shizuoka City), a facility for single employees in the Shizuoka district. Construction was completed in February 2026, and employees began moving in on March 23.

A spacious lounge has also been established to serve as a hub for communication among employees, supporting their growth in both professional and personal lives. Koito Manufacturing remains committed to developing an environment where every employee can perform to their full potential, aiming for increased corporate value and sustainable growth.
