What Chino Corporation India does

CHINO Corporation India Pvt. Ltd. is a 100% subsidiary of CHINO Corporation, Tokyo, and operates as the Indian arm of a Japanese industrial instrumentation group with 81 years of parent-company history. Founded in India in 2009 and headquartered in Navi Mumbai's T.T.C. Industrial Area, the company manufactures and supplies process instruments, sensors, and systems for temperature, moisture, and humidity control to industrial plant and factory operators across India.

Its product portfolio spans paperless hybrid recorders (KR3000 series), digital indicating controllers (DB600, ±0.1% accuracy, 0.1s control cycle), infrared radiation thermometers (IR-CA series with 3ms response time), data loggers, thermal imaging cameras, thyristor regulators, industrial borescopes, and temperature traceability equipment including fixed-point blackbody furnaces co-developed with Japan's National Metrology Institute (NMIJ). The company also distributes NESSTECH-branded pressure and flow instruments under a partnership with Nesstech Inc., Japan, and offers proprietary multi-wavelength IR analyzers (IM Series) for moisture and film-thickness measurement. In March 2023, the company achieved NABL accreditation under ISO/IEC 17025:2017 for its calibration laboratory, enabling traceable IR and thermocouple calibration services from 50°C to 1450°C under Japanese expert supervision.

Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales, recurring calibration and repair/maintenance services, and consumables (ink, ribbon, chart paper). The go-to-market is direct enterprise B2B sales targeting industrial manufacturers, process industries (power, oil and gas, chemicals, petrochemicals), food and pharmaceutical processors, and Japanese-affiliated enterprises served via a dedicated Japan Desk. Customer engagement is conducted through the corporate website, product inquiry forms, trade shows such as Automation Expo, and university industrial visits. As a wholly-owned foreign subsidiary with no external capital, growth is funded internally by the Japanese parent.
