A company on a constant quest for a better future by supporting people’s lives through materials and the environment
Ever since its founding, the Nippon Denko Group has been involved in producing ferroalloys. Fittingly, our Ferroalloys business is our inner core and fuels our greatest strengths: competing on the world’s highest level and satisfying the world’s most demanding environmental standards thanks to our intensive dedication of management resources to high-carbon ferromanganese and exhaustive efforts to control costs in this business.
We are also focusing on and steadily developing our businesses (Functional Materials, Incineration Ash Recycling, and Aqua Solutions), which are relatively insulated from market conditions and should deliver stable profits. With five core businesses, adding the Electric Power business, namely hydroelectric power generation, we are striving to further increase corporate value by building a business portfolio that is less susceptible to the market conditions for ferroalloys.
The Medium/Long-Term Business Plan formulated in November 2023 calls for executives and employees to work together to realize Our Ideal State in 2030 "a company on a constant quest for a better future by supporting people’s lives through materials and the environment " under the basic policy of "balancing solving social issues through business activities and enhancing corporate value through sustainable growth".We intend to steadfastly search for solutions to management issues by leveraging the Group’s strengths to the maximum extent and using every bit of our management resources. In addition, we will continue exploring new avenues to the future by providing a consistent supply of high-quality products and developing and delivering new technologies while providing new products.
