MK seat, Osaka Japan
« on: July 16, 2012, 10:55 AM »
Just bought a quilted troxel style seat that was made by MK shoji co. Ltd, Osaka Japan (will bang a pic up later)
Does anyone know anything about them and could they be related to Kashimax as the seat has a plastic base and they are in the same town?

Cheers all  :daumenhoch:

Osaka was the industrial heartland of Japan. Loads of manufacturing companies would have been based there.
There were collaborations between different makers suppling or making parts for each other and also family connections between companies...
Personally, I think it's unlikely that a Kashimax made seat would have been made without some kind of identifying mark though.

I could be wrong mind ;)
