The Band Toto Asia

Toto was expanding its production facilities abroad and was doing business in France, Germany, Indonesia, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and the People's Republic of China.

Dhaniram Toto documented Toto words to ensure that the future generation could read them. However, many words were being replaced with foreign ones, like dui, which is Bengali for verandah.

Origins

The early history of Toto which began in 1917, was a reflection of Japan's rapid economic growth. In the first half, Toto manufactured goods to meet the demand for modern, brand new urban housing. It had the first tunnel kiln in the nation to continuously produce ceramics. It also pioneered the use of automation to control production, which allows for greater efficiency and consistency.

In the late 1980s, the company began expanding overseas to take advantage of sales and new markets. The company founded the Cera Trading Company to import and sell other products from other manufacturers to enhance its own line of sanitary earthenwares as well as plumbing fittings. This strategy helped increase sales and expand the company's market share in the world.

In the 90s, Toto began focusing on research and development for water-related appliances. It also upgraded its distribution system to better serve the needs of customers and boost profits. The company implemented a just-in-time method of managing supply chains, and it used the same methodology in its sales program. This resulted in a higher level of satisfaction of customers.

Toto continues to invent on the toilet technology. The latest toilet, for instance, has a strong tornado flush that is more eco friendly than traditional toilets. The company also uses recycled water in its production process and has a green procurement policy. In addition to toilets, Toto produces bathtubs and faucets and hand dryers that are more efficient in terms of energy consumption than conventional models.

The museum even has a bathroom that includes a WASHLET toilet and other toilet-related innovations.

Keyboardist David Paich, drummer Jeff Porcaro, and guitarists Mike Porcaro and Steve Lukather all performed on the album Silk Degrees by Boz Scaggs. They also performed on records by Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, and Sonny and Cher.

Discography

With a name like Asia one would expect the group to be prog queens and kings - but it's actually a fairly straightforward rock band. The band began as a four-piece and released two albums: 1979's self-titled debut and 1980's Armed to the Teeth. However, even though the group have a variety of musical backgrounds, their biggest success came in 1982 with Toto IV.

The album was a major blockbuster, but not without difficulties.

Line-up

Turn Back, the band's third studio album it was a return to a classic sextet structure and it was a more consistent, more powerful album with a sharper edge.
