Made in Japan

At EIZO, we distinguish ourselves as a developer of high-end visual display technology through our unique, integrated approach to design, manufacturing, and quality control. While many companies outsource development and production, we believe that retaining control over the entire production chain is key to delivering the unparalleled quality our customers expect.

What makes EIZO truly exceptional is our unwavering commitment to excellence, sustainability, and innovation. From the initial concept to the final shipment, our holistic approach ensures that each EIZO product enriches lives, both professionally and personally.

Technological expertise

At our headquarters in Hakusan, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, our in-house Research & Development teams are at the heart of EIZO’s innovation. With a wealth of experience in developing cutting-edge hardware and software technologies across diverse markets, we create solutions that are truly exceptional in quality, performance, and reliability. Our engineers are strategically positioned next to our main manufacturing facilities. This proximity allows for seamless collaboration and innovation across the development chain of every product.

What sets us apart is our commitment to understanding the real needs of our users. Our engineers also work directly with end users, gaining valuable insights that uniquely position us to innovate the most advanced solutions. This direct feedback loop ensures that every innovation is deeply aligned with the needs and aspirations of those who use our products.

Printed circuit board production

At EIZO’s smart factory in Hakui City, we produce printed circuit boards (PCBs) for our monitors entirely in-house. Thousands of tiny components are placed and soldered onto each board, with operations running 24 hours a day.

Multiple inspection machines are strategically installed at critical points throughout the process for real-time quality control. AI inspection, developed in joint collaboration between the factory and R&D department, provides a layer of precision checking. To further ensure quality and accuracy, human eye inspection is additionally conducted by our highly trained staff.

By controlling the production chain from the development of the circuitry, we can ensure that technical components are lighter, more compact, and flexible, perfectly tailored to every product. This approach contributes to our unparalleled quality, minimizes lead time, and provides extended lifecycle support for our products.

Optimized manual and automated processes

Our factory headquarters in Hakusan utilizes both manual and automated processes to optimize production efficiency. Robotic arms ensure secure and efficient movement of products through various stages of assembly, and AI is integrated into quality control processes for precision. Automated carts, conveyor belts, and lift systems further streamline the production line across multiple floors of the factory.

Manual operations are employed for tasks that require greater flexibility and adaptability. This sophisticated integration of manual and automated processes ensures both flexibility and high-quality in our manufacturing operations.

Adjustment and inspection

To ensure impeccable display quality right out of the box, our monitors go through a process called “aging”, which involves powering on the monitor for a specified duration to stabilize the circuit inside.

During adjustment and inspection, cameras test the brightness, color, and grayscale of each monitor and adjust to a standardized level. This is followed by EIZO’s renowned “human eye test”, where skilled workers visually inspect each monitor to check for any discrepancies, ensuring that every product meets our exacting standards.

Eco-conscious packaging

Our automated conveyor belt system efficiently delivers the fully assembled and tested monitors to the packing station, where workers carefully pack the product, its accessories, and documentation.

Prioritizing sustainability, many of our recent products utilize eco-conscious packaging, such as molded pulp made from recycled cardboard and newspaper. With each new sustainably focused product, EIZO strives to reduce packaging size compared to their predecessors, thereby decreasing GHG (Greenhouse Gas) emissions during transport.
