Import and Export

Expanding Our Business Field on the Global Arena
At ASANO, our single greatest strength lies in the ability to import timber products from over 10 countries in various different regions worldwide.
ASANO imports materials from Finland, Austria, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Chile, Brazil and other trading partner nations.
In this way, we import an impressive range of wood products, from housing structural materials, to interior finishing materials, flooring and other selections from around the world. We are equally active in exports to South Korea of Japan-produced raw timber and lumber. In this section, we profile our operations for the specific nations with which the company does business.

The Dynamic Core of a Timber and Building Materials General Trading Company
ASANO has made a particularly spirited push to mobilize our trading company functions to more fully satisfy customer needs.
This refers specifically to direct import/direct demand sales, the importing of high-quality, low-priced wood products processed locally in trading partner countries, for direct shipment to Japan-based users.
ASANO handles a wide line of top-quality products. This ranges from structuring materials for wood homes imported from Europe, to DIY goods produced in China from Chilean planted trees for sale at home centers. In all instances, our mission is to excel on the marketplace as a premiere “timber and building materials general trading company.”
