1976 — Our Beginnings in Sapporo, Japan

KDK Corporation was founded in Sapporo, Hokkaido, on June 1, 1976. Over the decades, the company built practical manufacturing knowledge through work on a wide range of industrial products, using materials including sheet steel and stainless steel. Attention to each material, precise fabrication and careful finishing became part of our foundation.

2026 — 50 Years of Experience, A New Challenge

On June 1, 2026, KDK celebrated its 50th anniversary. Building on this milestone, we began a new challenge: creating original products under our own brand, KDEEK.com. Our aim is to bring the experience of industrial metalworking into objects for everyday living.

HOKKAIDO, SAPPORO — Our Place of Origin

Our home is Hokkaido, Japan, and our roots are in its city of Sapporo. For decades, our company has crafted industrial products here, developing a deep respect for materials and the details of manufacturing. As KDEEK.com reaches customers around the world, we carry this heritage into every design.

MATERIAL & CRAFT — Beauty in Metal

Steel and stainless steel each have a distinctive character. Brushed stainless steel, in particular, catches light in delicate lines and changing reflections. KDEEK.com respects the beauty of the metal itself, combining precise fabrication with restrained colour, artwork and generous negative space.

MADE IN JAPAN — From Sapporo to the World

Rooted in Sapporo, Hokkaido, KDEEK.com develops Japanese-made metal objects for customers in Japan and abroad. We seek a quiet, lasting aesthetic rather than fleeting decoration: contemporary pieces that express both the character of their materials and the care of Japanese manufacturing.

THE NEXT CHAPTER — Looking Ahead

From 1976 to 2026, and beyond. Our approach is to respect the accumulated experience of the past while embracing new possibilities for form, finish and expression. The KDEEK.com story continues through this challenge.
