    Shimpo was founded in 1952 as a manufacturer of electric motors.  As the simple potter's wheel is the ultimate application of that expertise, the first Shimpo electric potter's wheel introduced in 1955 and would, over time, become the classic pottery wheel design which was envied by every pottery wheel manufacturer.  Today, Shimpo Ceramics is part of the Nidec group, a nearly 11 billion dollar global company headquartered in Kyoto Japan that specializes in manufacturing some of the finest electrical motors, micro motors, spindle motors, drive units and instrumentation in the world.  Based upon nearly a half century of manufacturing experience with pottery wheels and other devices, Shimpo introduced the Shimpo Whisper Series of pottery wheels in 2003.  Today, the Shimpo VL Whisper is considered the finest pottery wheel available any where in the world.

    For the ceramic and pottery industry, Shimpo manufactures electric pottery wheels, the world famous Shimpo Banding Wheel and several different accessory products. The products showcased on Dogwood Ceramic Supply's website are always in Dogwood's warehouse inventory.
