The story of Kayaba began in 1919, when the visionary engineer Shiro Kayaba He founded the Kayaba Research Center in Tokyo. At a time when Japan was transitioning from tradition to technological progress, Kayaba dedicated his laboratory to the development of hydraulic systems, with an obsession with improving the stability and safety of transportation.

During the 1930s, the company transformed into Kayaba Manufacturing Co., Ltd., focusing on shock absorbers and suspension components for cars, trains, and even airplanes. His reputation grew with the development of robust systems that helped maintain balance even under extreme conditions.

With the global automotive boom after World War II, Kayaba expanded its operations and began supplying manufacturers such as Toyota, Honda and Nissan, becoming one of the world's leading producers of OEM (original equipment) shock absorbers.

Today, under the name of KYB Corporation, the brand has:

• Presence in more than 100 countries.
• More than 15 factories around the world.
• Technology applied to passenger and commercial vehicles, motorcycles, trains, and industrial machinery.
