10 Meetups On Toto Asia You Should Attend

The Band Toto Asia

Toto was expanding its production facilities overseas and doing business in France, Germany, Indonesia, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and the People's Republic of China.

Dhaniram Toto was recording Toto words to ensure the future generations would be able to read them. Many words were substituted with foreign ones. For example, dui, which is Bengali for verandah, was used.

Origins

Incorporated in 1917, Toto's beginnings mirrored Japan's growth. In the beginning, Toto produced products to meet the growing demand for modern, new urban housing. To do this, it used the first tunnel kiln in the nation to produce ceramics in a continuous flow. It also pioneered the use of automation for production control, which helps to increase efficiency and a more consistent production.

In the late 1980s, the company began to expand outwards to take advantage of sales and new markets. The company established the Cera Trading Company to import and sell other products from other manufacturers in order to complement its own line of sanitary earthenwares as well as plumbing fittings. This strategy increased sales and increased the firm's market share.

In the 1990s, Toto began to concentrate on research and development for water-related appliances. It also redesigned its distribution system to better serve its customers and boost profits. The company employed the same just-in-time approach to its supply chain management as well as sales program. This resulted in a higher degree of customer satisfaction.

Toto continued to innovate toilet technology. Its latest toilet, for example, has a powerful tornado flush that is more ecologically friendly than traditional toilets. The company also makes use of recycled water in its manufacturing process and has a green procurement policy. In addition to toilets Toto produces bathtubs and faucets and hand dryers that are more efficient in energy use than conventional models.

The first museum of the company was opened in 2015 It has exhibits on Toto's most iconic products and their development as well as its group companies (all having to do with ceramics) and the history of plumbing and other products like bath units and, in a separate gallery, Toto products sold around the world. The museum houses the bathroom equipped with a WASHLET as well as other toilet innovations.

Before beginning the formation of Toto members of the group did sessions for a variety of musicians. Boz Scaggs album Silk Degrees featured keyboardist David Paich, guitarists Mike Porcaro & Steve Lukather as well as drummer Jeff Porcaro & Steve Lukather. They also played on records by Steely Don, Seals and Crofts and Sonny and Cher.

Discography

Line-up
