The Band Toto Asia
Toto was expanding its production facilities abroad and operating in France, Germany, Indonesia, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and the People's Republic of China. North America was seen as a market that would grow for bidet and washlet toilet seats, in contrast to its "base" markets in Japan and China.
Dhaniram Toto documented Toto words so that the next generation could be able to read the words. Many words were substituted with foreign words. For example, dui, which is Bengali for verandah, was being used.
Origins
Incorporated in 1917, Toto's early years were a mirror 토지노 커뮤니티 of Japan's economic development. In the beginning of its existence, the company made products to meet the demand for new, modern urban housing. To achieve this, it employed the first tunnel kiln in the country to make ceramics in continuous flow. It also pioneered automation to allow production control, which helps to increase efficiency and consistency.
In the late 1980s, the company began expanding outwards to benefit from sales and new markets. It established the Cera Trading Company, importing and 토토사이트 꽁머니 distributing other manufacturers' products to complement its own line of sanitary earthenware and plumbing fittings. This strategy helped increase sales and expand the market share of the company globally.
In the late 1990s, Toto had shifted its focus to research and development of water-related household appliances. It also improved its distribution system to better meet the needs of its customers and to increase profits. The company adopted a just-in-time approach to managing its supply chain and used the same approach in its sales program. This resulted in a greater level customer satisfaction.
Toto continues to invent in the toilet technology. Its latest toilet, for instance, has a strong tornado flush that is more eco friendly than traditional toilets. Toto also makes use of recycled water in its production process and has a green purchasing policy. Apart from toilets, Toto manufactures bathtubs and faucets, as well as hand dryers that are more energy efficient than standard models.
The company's first museum opened in 2015 It has exhibits about Toto's iconic products and their development and its group companies (all that deal with ceramics) as well as the history of plumbing and other products like bath units and, in a different gallery, Toto products sold around the world. The museum even has a bathroom that features a WASHLET toilet as well as other toilet-related innovations.
Before forming Toto members of the group performed sessions with various musicians.

They also appeared on records by Steely Don, Seals and Crofts and Sonny and 메이저사이트 순위 Cher.
Discography

Although the band have a wide range of musical backgrounds their biggest breakthrough was in 1982 with Toto IV.

Their distinctive sound has become the standard of 1980s music, and has inspired a lot of contemporary artists.
The album begins hard with tracks like Running Out of Time or Unknown Soldier that show the band's ability to create great AOR tunes that slowly creep into your head. The album also contains more jazzy, slower tracks such as The Little Things and Chinatown.

Line-up
Turn Back, the band's third studio album, was an attempt to return to the classic sextet structure and it was a more consistent, more powerful album with a sharper edge. The edgier sound of Turn Back was a reflection of the development of the group. Drummer Bobby Kimball's increased ability to play was evident in the vocals of Joseph Williams, who had become more confident and mature. David Paich's work was more precise, sharper and less cloying than previously recorded performances.
After touring to promote their album, the group recorded an Amsterdam live performance that was released on Eagle Records as a 2-CD set titled Falling In Between. The studio album came out a few months later, and the group embarked on an extensive world tour to promote it. In this time keyboardist Greg Phillinganes filled in for Paich, and bassist David Hungate left the group to spend more time with his family.
In 1998, Paich and Lukather started exploring old tapes and demos for a new album featuring songs that had never been recorded before. It was released in the form of a double-album called Then & Now in 2001. It was the first album in the history of the band not to feature a single song with the word "A" in its title. It also included one previously unreleased track, "Kari-Anne".
By 2003, Toto had begun to decline in popularity. The group's fourth album, Old Is New was an uncommercial success and vocalist Williams was suffering from laryngitis, which restricted his singing capabilities. Additionally, Hungate returned to Nashville, while drummer Leland Sklar was replaced by Shem von Schroeck.
Downes and the other original members of Asia - Wetton, Palmer, and Howe--convened an event in England in the beginning of 2006 to discuss the possibility of reforming the group. The lineup, with the exception of Howe who was occupied with Yes during that time, became Toto XIV. They toured extensively.
In 2010, the band reunited for another reunion tour with a slightly different line-up, including guitarists Mike Porcaro and Steve Lukather, drummer John Pierce, bassist Shannon Forrest, and multi-instrumentalists Warren Ham and Dominique Taplin. The band also featured an appearance by singer Michael McDonald, and a backing singer named Mabvuto Carpenter.
