Mission
I believe that a company is a living thing. Because of this, environmental problems are important issues that we cannot ignore. It is therefore our mission to protect the earth, animals, nature, fossil fuels, forests, etc., and we must take action to avoid wasting limited metal resources, etc. Japan is an industrialized country that is practically devoid of resources, and nothing would make me happier than to be able to prevent our country from getting any poorer and pass a better Japan on to the next generation.
The self-supporting efforts of individual companies won’t be enough to achieve a sustainable society in the 21st century. Through our aluminum recycling business, we have constantly emphasized the importance of achieving mutual growth with our customers. We also strive to build good relationships with municipalities, companies, and other stakeholders in fields that include environmental planning in order to work on creating systems that will help us build a sustainable society.
In a field where resource recovery was once said to be impossible, we pursued extensive surveys, research, and development to hone our technical capabilities. Our technological development was ignored at first, but we gradually made improvements and eventually achieved aluminum resource recovery that would be useful to anyone. We will continue striving to contribute to Japan’s industrial development in the pursuit of technological innovations that lead to the next generation.
Services
Aluminum-can recycling business
We crush used aluminum cans, remove metals such as iron and copper as well as impurities such as sand from them, peel off the coatings printed on them, and then pelletize them, all of which is based on our proprietary dry refining method. Compared to directly melting aluminum, our recycling method results in a higher primary yield.
more...Aluminum-laminate-foil recycling business
We were selected as a company in charge of “waste-application development/expansion implementation business” and conducted empirical technical research on aluminum laminate foil. By recycling aluminum laminate foil, we help protect the global environment and contribute to the effective utilization of resources.
more...Aluminum-cap recycling business, etc.
We also use the skills we’ve cultivated through our research and development to recycle aluminum-cap materials. The business we conduct is useful in terms of helping with social problems, environmental protection, and the resource recovery of raw materials.
