Santen’s values and mission statement

Values

In Japanese, we say:

Our vision text

Which means:
“Exploring the secrets and mechanisms of nature in order to contribute to people’s health”

Santen’s original interpretation of a passage from chapter 22 of Zhongyong (The Doctrine of the Mean) by Confucius.

We think carefully about what is essential, decide clearly what we should do, and act quickly.


Mission statement
