Nonferrous Metals

The Nonferrous Metals industry smelts and processes non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper, supplying essential materials for electronic equipment and transportation equipment. It manufactures various non-ferrous metals including aluminum, copper, zinc, lead, nickel, and titanium, providing products used in a wide range of applications such as electric wires, automotive parts, aircraft components, electronic parts, and building materials. This industry develops products that leverage the excellent properties of non-ferrous metals, including electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, light weight, and corrosion resistance. By developing alloys suited to specific applications, such as aluminum alloys, copper alloys, and titanium alloys, it provides high-performance materials. Particularly in the electric vehicle and aircraft industries, demand is growing for materials that achieve both weight reduction and high strength. Promoting recycling is also an important characteristic, as recycling aluminum and copper can significantly reduce energy consumption compared to new smelting. Toward realizing a circular economy, the industry has established scrap collection and regeneration systems, achieving effective resource utilization and environmental impact reduction.
