This company fails WP:GNG as well as WP:NCORP. There is no coverage by third party reliable sources. For these reasons, I think that the article should be deleted. Please note that previously, this page was a redirect to Tostem Station, and I think that it could be re-created after deletion. Kostas20142 (talk) 11:49, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Lixil Group; a valid search term as per WP:ATD-R. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 02:55, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• A question to the nominator: when you say that there is no coverage by reliable third-party sources, I assume you checked potential sources in Japanese as well? If so, I agree with North America that "Lixil Group" is a better redirect target. If not, then someone needs to check Japanese sources before this is deleted (I do not speak Japanese, so unfortunately cannot help).—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); October 23, 2017; 14:17 (UTC)
• Redirect to Lixil Group as WP:ATD; no need for a separate article. No indications of notability or significance, and no sources to meet WP:CORPDEPTH. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:25, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• dab  Lots of sources in WP:BEFORE such as sixth snippet on Google books which states, "The top five Japanese residential window companies in 1998 were Tostem Corporation (34.3% market share)..."  Given that there are no secondary sources in the current article, the topic can be covered at Lixil Group for now.  Mentioning a train station at the top of Lixil Group can be avoided by making this a dab page.  Unscintillating (talk) 22:11, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
