Side story

Origin of the name "DISCO"

DISCO was originally a blade/grinding wheel manufacturer under the name of Dai-Ichi Seitosho CO., Ltd. In 1969, when the company, which had developed its business only domestically, started to export to the US, DISCO was used for the first time for easy pronunciation taking the initials of the corporate name. This name also contained our intention to easily assume what we handled since "disk" in English and "disco" in Spanish both express the shape of the blade or grinding wheel. At the beginning, DISCO was used only as the name of the US subsidiary, but the name of the headquarters was officially changed to DISCO Corporation in 1977.
