MORE THAN SIX DECADES of GROWTH, ACQUISITION AND SUCCESS
Since its inception, HORIBA has seen an incremental journey. The parent group was founded by Late Dr Masao HORIBA, in Japan, 1945 as HORIBA Radio Laboratory and later established as HORIBA, Ltd in the year 1953. Since then, the brand has been enjoying a trailblazing journey. The legacy of growth and success is being carried on by our current Chairman and Group CEO Mr Atsushi HORIBA. We came up with the first Automotive Emission Analyzer and Air Pollution Monitor in 1964. HORIBA commenced its expansion in 1970, with a wide array of superior technology and enterprise-grade products. The 1980s brought about a period of building up our internal resources and HORIBA got listed on the first section of the Tokyo stock and Osaka securities exchanges. HORIBA concludes an agreement with Maidak Inc., of the U.S., to transfer technology on fourier-transform infrared spectrophotometers by 1988. During the 1990s, HORIBA acquired two French companies: the specialist blood cell counter maker ABX SAS (present name HORIBA ABX SAS) in 1996, and an optical equipment & instruments maker Jobin Yvon SAS (currently HORIBA Jobin Yvon SAS), in 1997.

This decade brought about the next innings of HORIBA and its global operations. During the next decade, HORIBA unites as ‘One Company’ as administrative policy. Moving forward in the year 2005, HORIBA started widening its arena of services and brought in Schenck Development Test Systems (including Schenck Pegasus). This acquisition aided in gaining more visibility within the automotive market with a progressive range of products including engine and driveline testing tools, brake testing and wind-tunnel balances.

Then in 2015, HORIBA India acquired MIRA in the UK (present name HORIBA MIRA) to expand in product engineering, research, testing, information and providing certification services to the automotive sector. Between 2018-19, HORIBA delved into two more arenas, further diversifying its specialization. In 2018, the Company acquired FuelCon AG (present name HORIBA Fuelcon GmbH). This acquisition helped HORIBA to curate unrivalled services for the e-mobility sector. In the same year, they also got their hands on ROHM Co. Ltd’s micro-blood analysis system business, in Japan.

The acquisition has helped HORIBA to procure and sell nanoparticle tracking analysis systems used in life-science, semiconductor manufacturing process and environmental process.

Over this challenging period, HORIBA has grown all five segments beyond numbers. Its potential partnerships and acquisitions have helped in the development of the first Automotive Emission Analyzer. Our products and services have displayed dynamic standards in the fields of automotive emissions and stack-gas measurement, air pollution, water pollution monitoring, quality control in various industries and clinical diagnosis.
