Impact of Escalating Tensions in the Middle East on Mold Manufacturing and Related Operations

Dear Valued Customers,

Thank you for your continued support of Nagatsu.

Escalating tensions in the Middle East continue to disrupt global logistics and drive up energy prices.

We are working closely with our suppliers and doing everything we can to maintain stable procurement and product supply. However, depending on how the situation develops, we may need to consult with you regarding delivery schedules and pricing.

■ Potential Impacts

  • Procurement delays for materials and parts: Mold steel and parts sourced overseas may be delayed
  • Rising costs: Higher costs for materials, heat treatment, and shipping due to rising crude oil prices
  • Delivery schedules: Longer lead times due to logistics delays

We sincerely ask for your understanding of these circumstances and your continued cooperation.

Sincerely,
