In the statement issued on April 27, Taiwan Kyoei / Filco (Non-Ert), which has been involved in manufacturing FILCO products, expressed its intention to continue supporting FILCO users.
It also mentions that repair support and sales operations will continue going forward.
FILCO is a mechanical keyboard brand that has been marketed in Japan by Diatec Co., Ltd.
In particular, the “Majestouch” series has long been loved as a staple model in Japan’s mechanical keyboard market.
Meanwhile, Diatec announced the end of its business as of April 22, 2026, and attention had been focused on what would happen next for the FILCO brand and the Majestouch series.
Statement posted on the official Taiwan FILCO website
According to the statement posted on the official Taiwan FILCO website, Taiwan Kyoei / Filco (Non-Ert), which has been involved in manufacturing FILCO products, intends to take on the role of supporting FILCO users.
The statement says that repair support and sales operations will continue, which is positive news for FILCO users.
In Japan, PC Watch also reported on this statement on April 28 and shared the statement page on the official Taiwan FILCO website as a related link.
That said, there are still points to keep in mind at this time.
This statement was posted on the official Taiwan FILCO website, and there is currently no clear information confirming details such as the FILCO trademark in Japan, warranty support, repair contact points, or the sales setup in Japan.
Also, Diatec’s business closure notice on its official website does not provide a clear explanation of any business transfer to a Taiwan company or brand succession.
For that reason, rather than concluding that “the FILCO brand has been officially taken over” or that “the support setup in Japan will continue as before,” Greenkeys believes it’s best to view this as an indication from the Taiwan side of its intention to continue repairs and sales for FILCO products.
A positive development for FILCO users
Diatec’s business closure was a major event for Japan’s keyboard market.
The FILCO Majestouch series has long been supported by many users as a go-to mechanical keyboard featuring Cherry MX switches. It’s widely known that FILCO has played a significant role in Japan’s mechanical keyboard market.
This statement from the Taiwan manufacturing partner about continuing repair support and sales operations can be seen as a positive sign for FILCO users.
At the same time, we still need to wait for official information on specific support contacts in Japan, warranty handling, sales channels, and future product plans.
At Greenkeys, we’ll continue to follow updates on the FILCO brand and the Majestouch series based on confirmed information.
