ORIGIN OF  THE COMPANY  NAME

Taking the initial letters from the first name of each president, MA (MASAYOSHI),TE (TERUKAZU) and KU (KUNIHIKO) it became MATEKU, finally arranged as MATTECK and later adding the family name of MATSUZKI. The name of MATTECK MATSUZKI has Worldwide acceptance in the beauty industry. It was determined by the second generation/Masayoshi Matsuzaki in 1972 as CI and succeeded to the present third generation, Kunihiko Matsuzaki.

Design of Matsuzaki crest

Design of traditional three metallic rings of Matsuzaki.
In Matsuzaki family, three metallic rings are considered to mean “manufacturer / hairstylist / customer”
based on scissors manufactured with Samurai spirit.
The three rings represent “harmony”---Human being live in harmony side by side. Therefore, we, Matsuzaki believe we have to pay respect to all, to be modest, to cultivate spirit and make our scissors strong and elegant.
