At JST, quality isn't just a standard-it's how we work. We're redefining what it means to show up, collaborate, and drive results by embedding quality into everything we do. That's why we say: Quality is our Formula. This formula isn't just a slogan-it's a mindset. It's captured in a simple but powerful equation: Q = TCI²

T = TEAMWORK means BEING ONE and always working together to meet company goals.

C = CUSTOMER FOCUSED means BEING ALIGNED and always aligning with and focusing on your customers (both external and internal facing).

I = INTEGRITY means BEING ACCOUNTABLE and always accepting and requiring accountability.

I = INNOVATION means BEING IN PURSUIT of improvements by always innovating relentlessly.

This cultural is about more than words; it's about aligning who we are with how we work. We have a culture where every action, every idea, and every solution reflects our commitment to quality and excellence.

At JST, quality is not just a goal, it's an expectation, a belief, and a way of being. When you join our team, you're not just contributing to our success; you're becoming part of a culture built on collaboration, customer dedication, ethical innovation, and shared purpose.
