Achieving high quality and productivity

Completed in June 2008, the Kansai Plant (Tojo) is our company’s
main plant. With facilities that include large leveling lines andshearers, it offers high-quality, optimized processing for a wide
range of steel thicknesses—from thin sheet to thick plate—and canalso handle diverse needs such as producing various items in smalllots. Defect detection precision improved even more particularly
with the installation of automated defect detection equipment on the
1600-millimeter leveling line in March 2018. Additionally, we have
put in place a just-in-time delivery system for customers throughout
western Japan from our convenient location near the Chugoku
Expressway’s Hyogo Tojo interchange.

The Kansai Plant (Sanda) specializes in slitting, with five slittinglines that can handle a wide range of product requirements in widths
from 6 to 1540 mm and sheet thicknesses from 0.05 to 6 mm. The
plant achieves the highest quality and productivity with technology
and expertise developed over many years. It is just fifteen minutes

Equipped with slitting, leveling and shearing lines, the Saitama
Plant is a versatile production center able to process various shapes
and sizes according to customer needs. It also tops the industry involume as well as the standard of the quality of its services basedon strict internal quality controls and comprehensive customer
support. Automated defect detection equipment was installed on the1250-millimeter leveling line in August 2019 as part of efforts toboost customer satisfaction.

Equipped with the latest slitting and leveling line facilities, the Chiba
Plant has a highly precise, flexible processing system and comprehensive
packing and shipping system. The plant handles a wide variety ofcustomer needs, ranging from cars, appliances, kitchen equipment, gas
apparatuses to construction materials. The foil slitting line installedin October 2008 can process sheet in thicknesses from 0.03 to 0.5 mm
and widths from 7 to 1000 mm. One plant specialty is stainless steel
processing for items such as precision devices that demand a highlevel of precision, since the hydraulic expansion arbor makes a stable
shear edge possible and the dual (top and bottom) surface inspection
equipment enables the detection of even minute defects.

Environment-related efforts

Technical solution sales

To create accident-free, safe and secure workplaces,
we implement various safety measures and offer welfare
benef its to promote the health and wellbeing of ouremployees.

(1) Improved stakeholder satisfaction and comprehensive
legal compliance
To improve the satisfaction of our customers and otherstakeholders, we always strive to provide our products
and services while complying with all laws, government
and local ordinances, and regulations related to quality
and the environment.

To achieve a sustainable society, we proactively pursue
beneficial environmental management and strive to lessen
our environmental load. Deeply aware of the relationshipbetween the environment and our corporate activities, we
contribute to society by effectively utilizing environmentallyfriendly energy and resources to manufacture products andprovide services.

(2) Efficient use of resources and energy
We strive to protect the environment and cut costs byconserving energy, recycling, and eliminating losses
and waste in all our business activities—including
warehousing, processing, shipping and services—byimproving our technical capabilities and streamline
operations.

Safety data sheets

We create competitiveness that goes beyond pricing
through comprehensive communication derived fromour expertise in specialized stainless steel technology,
including:● Cogent advice based on stainless steel product andapplication-based processing technology● Introducing and providing information about productfeatures, manufacturing processes and technologies, aswell as protective film and polishing technologies● Communication with customers on technical issues,
including such topics as workability, heat treatment andweldability, corrosion and corrosion prevention, andsurface treatment● Handling product chemical substance assessments with
the EU legal system in mind

● Installing safety poles
Stainless steel coils weigh hundreds of kilograms andtheir edges are as sharp as blades, so it is dangerous to
get too close to them. By installing a number of safety
poles, we have greatly diminished the risk of coils fallingover or injuries due to contact with coils.
● Using lashing belts
Along with installing safety poles, we have boosted coilstability by looping lashing belts around coils.
● Preventing falls
We have installed ladders so that workers can safely geton and off truck beds—even on days when the weather isbad—when loading and unloading coils from truck beds.
● Taking measures to prevent heatstroke
A plant can get very hot inside, depending on theseason. We have workers wear air-conditioned clothing
and circulate air with large fans as measures againstheatstroke. We have also taken steps to ensure thatworkers stay hydrated by installing water dispensers,
among other measures.

(3) Improving management systems
By linking management systems and management
plans, we strive to improve effectiveness so that our
accumulated daily efforts are linked to the achievementof goals and earning society’s trust.
(4) Human resource training and improving awarenessWe strive to improve employee awareness of responsible
conduct through basic training according to rank andon-the-job training. We train our people so that they
can conduct business while complying with the law andobserving social norms.

To facilitate proper understanding and safe handlingof our products, we furnish safety data sheets that provide
information about substances contained in our products,
their impact on people and the environment, and handlingcautions.

High-quality steel service center
We provide comprehensive customer services using
precision processing technology and quality control systems
underpinned by total quality management (our plants in
Kansai, Saitama and Chiba have obtained ISO 9001 and
14001 certifications). Some examples:● Handling various special specifications according tothose agreed upon with customers and specified formother coil with manufacturers● Rapid market requirement feedback through regularmeetings to exchange information about quality with
manufacturers● Providing competitive products by seeking leveling,
shearing and slitting line processing precision andproductivity● Promptly respondi ng with i nitial i nvestigations,specifying the extent of repercussions, and investigating
causes when product defects occur
