Early Operations
In the year of 1982, the founder armed with only a small seed capital of NTD$ 200,000 and a vision, the founder embarked on a journey to start a business in a humble warehouse, utilizing his own garage at his home. |
The First Expansion In 1990, the new factory, spanning 1800m2 across three levels was completed. A year later, the manufacturing and sales of stainless-steel cutlery began in various countries across Europe and America, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia, and the United States. |
Created A Reusable Cutlery Brand In 2002, Layana Cutlery was established and designed based on the cultural heritage of the Orient, including chopsticks and Western cutlery - forks, knives and spoons.
To promote the importance of using reusable cutlery instead of disposable cutlery, Layana was able to use existing techniques - stamping and plastic injection to produce different series of cutlery - portable chopsticks, child cutlery set, etc. |
Investment In China In 2010, Layana opened offices in Kunshan, Suzhou and Guangzhou respectively. Layana also formed a joint venture with a local mold and stamping factory in Suzhou in order to integrate the local supply chain. |
Acquired ISO14001 Environmental Management System To achieve better environmental management, obtaining ISO 14001 certification was one of Layana's top priorities in business planning. Layana achieved the certification in 2016. |
Successions in Family Business Starting in 2017, the second generation took over the responsibilities of running the business, and aimed at integrating its existing technology and engineering capabilities, providing customers with customized automatic production and inspection equipment.
As a one-stop service company for multiple processes, mold design, production, and inspection for assembled, stamped, and injected parts shall all be completed in the same factory. |
The New Era With continued growth, Layana moved into its new headquarters in September 2018, covering a total floor area of 12,630m2. The building's colors represent five elements of the earth: the sun, blue sky, clouds, plants, and soil. It was designed with environmental friendliness and energy conservation in mind. Meanwhile, Layana also became one of Tesla's suppliers and entered into the EV industry. |
Moving Towards the Vision In 2019, Layana not only renewed the IATF 16949 Certification but obtained Green Building - Gold Level and ISO 50001 Energy Management System, merging the rules into the company culture. |
Obtained the Green Factory Layana, in 2022, achieved recognition as one of the world's first green factories under the Green Factory Certification System. This certification is only attainable by successfully meeting the requirements of the Green Building and Clean Production Assessment System. |
Obtained ISO 14064-1 certification In 2024, Layana obtained ISO 14064 Greenhouse Gases certification early in the year, measuring the organization's carbon emissions, with the ultimate goal of reducing and eliminating GHG emissions. |
