solana - Company Information

Illuminating Japan brightly and affordably.
There is an alternative to LED lightin CCFL.

Interest in environmentally friendly products has grown in recent years, and demand for energy efficient lighting increases day by day. Taking on the challenge to respond to these demands, we developed “solana”, a next generation lighting alternative under the maxim “affordable, bright, and long-lasting.” “solana” is based on CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamp) technology, which has a proven track record in backlights for liquid crystal displays. “solana” lamps and light fixtures are environmentally friendly. They save space and energy, require little maintenance, and cut CO2 emissions. And their use can lead to saving resources as well.

Meeting customer needs with reliable, precise craftsmanship.

Hohkohsya Co., Ltd. was founded in 1996. Throughout its 42 years it has consistently received high praise from customers for its wide range of services as printed circuit board specialists. As a company, we have made it our mission to keep up with the latest cutting-edge technology in the field of electronics and build relationships of mutual trust with our customers.

Printed circuit boards are utilized in a variety of fields. Without them cutting-edge electronics such as ultra-fine wiring and high-density electronic components would not be possible. Our company specializes in printed circuit board design, leveraging state-of-the-art EDA tools to meet a variety of needs and provides customers with a comprehensive after-sales support service from a passionate and experienced staff. We strive to meet customer requests throughout every stage of the production process, from design and simulation, to manufacturing and packaging. In addition, as part of our continuing efforts to provide safe and environmentally-friendly products, we have obtained ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification.

We also conduct development and sales of Picsor: our brand of DC current sensors that can detect weak direct current without the need for direct contact.
