TOKYO, Decemember 9, 2016 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today it will exhibit 17 universal-design products that offer maximized ease of use and accessibility for people of all ages and abilities, during the 6th International Conference for Universal Design at the Nagoya Congress Center in Nagoya, Japan from December 9 to December 11.

Mitsubishi Electric's universal design initiatives are based on the concept of usability for each individual, aiming to make products accessible to the largest number of people possible.
