That seems to be where Japanese industry "outsources" jobs for products for Japanese consumption. And to some extent, world markets.
I'm not seeing something here. Is there some reason a Japanese-made filter would be more desirable? Different construction and packaging, sure. But if it's made directly for the parent company to their tight specifications...it all should be good. Novelty interest? Okay, sure. Seems a bit esoteric, though. Like oddly-stamped connecting rods or other hidden part... |

Construction seems much more robust and intricate to me. Completely different internals.
