How do you pronounce “Kuraray”? Behind our name is a story rooted in our origins. “Kura” comes from Kurashiki, the city in Japan where our company was founded, while “ray” refers to rayon — one of Kuraray’s earliest products. Today, Kurashiki remains an important part of our identity. It’s home to our major R&D centre as well as the Ohara Museum of Art, which was established by our founder Magosaburo Ohara to support culture and social development through business and philanthropy. At Kuraray, we believe that innovation and heritage go hand in hand — and it all started with our name. 🌟 So, how do you pronounce our name? Well… there isn’t just one answer! We asked our #DifferenceMakers series to share their way — watch below to see what they said! #Kuraray #MakeTheDifference
