Komori Corporation (Sumida-ku, Tokyo, Japan; Representative Director, President and CEO: Satoshi Mochida) is pleased to announce that it has received the silver prize in the calendar category of the 47th Japan BtoB Advertising Awards, sponsored by the BtoB Advertising Association Japan.

The Japan BtoB Advertising Awards, which includes 15 categories, is the only BtoB advertising competition in Japan, and has been held by the association since 1980. Komori's 2026 calendar, "Fusion 'Nature & Technology' -NEO HOKUSAI-," was selected as the silver prize winner in the calendar category. Following the gold prize in 2024 and the silver prize in 2025, the Komori calendar has now won awards for three consecutive years.

As a printing press manufacturer, Komori produces an original calendar each year to showcase the value of the Komori brand through print media. We again co-developed this project with TOPPAN Colorer Inc., by leveraging the latest UV inkjet digital printing press J-throne 29 for RGB printing, together with the unique technologies made possible through our multicolor offset printing machines, to realize the fusion of tradition and innovation.

Komori considers it a great honor and meaningful achievement that the calendar has been recognized as a business and marketing communication tool from an advertising viewpoint. It was also highly evaluated for its rich visual expression enabled by precise printing and vibrant color reproduction, contributing to its impact as a dynamic advertising medium.

Komori will continue to refine its print technologies in pursuit of delivering Kando "beyond expectations" to customers.
