GIKEN LTD.

Giken Seisakusho develops, manufactures, sells, and rents hydraulic pile press-in machines (Silent Piler) and related equipment, as well as performs press-in construction work through its subsidiary Giken Sekou Co., Ltd. The company pioneered the world's first practical 'press-in principle' technology, enabling vibration-free and noise-free pile installation by utilizing the pull-out resistance of already-installed piles as reaction force. Beyond core piling equipment, the company also develops underground space utilization solutions including automated mechanical parking systems (EcoPark) and bicycle parking systems (EcoCycle) under the concept of 'Culture above ground, Function underground.'
