COMPANY
Established in 1955
Technology passed down from generation to generation and new challenges
Aiming to be a next-generation construction company
Local general construction company,
Concrete repair and reinforcement specialist worldwide.
Our company was founded on October 6, 1955 as Sasaki Construction and established Sakaegumi Corporation on January 7, 1972. Since its establishment, the Company has been engaged in civil engineering, construction, and pavement work as a general construction business in order to contribute to the development of the local community.
In particular, in the early 1950s, when the demand for paved roads increased, we were the first local company to operate our own independent asphalt plant plant, and we have been making efforts to popularize paved roads. In addition, since 2007, we have been working on concrete repair with crack injection technology at its core, and established the pressure-adjusted injection method (SAPIS).
Since then, we have been engaged in activities to extend the service life of concrete structures through our infrastructure longevity repair and construction management system (SIMMS), which spirals up each process of investigation and diagnosis, treatment of deteriorated areas, repair and reinforcement, and evaluation of restoration of properties.
We are committed to building solid relationships of trust with all of our stakeholders and to becoming a company that is truly needed by society.
