Aratas Corporation was established on 1 July 2026 through the spin-off of OMRON’s electronic components business and became independent from the OMRON Group on 1 October 2026. The company manufactures and sells relays, switches, connectors, sensors and other electronic components. Its mission is to "harness innovative connections between people and technology to create a new tomorrow”. Drawing on over 90 years of expertise and trust developed through OMRON’s founding electronic components business, Aratas combines this heritage with the agility of an independent, specialised company.
