PROFILE |
 |
One of Japan's largest producers of metals and ceramics, Mitsubishi Materials' products range from aluminum beverage cans to silicon wafers. Its fabricated metals and nonferrous metals segments (together more than half of sales) make such products as cutting tools, gold wire, and electrical contacts, and produce gold, copper, and silver. The diversified company's other segments sell fossil fuels and cement, produce silicon and advanced materials, and provide energy services. Mitsubishi Materials hopes to boost profits by downsizing and selling unprofitable operations. The company is part of the Mitsubishi "keiretsu," a collection of individual companies that share a common name and corporate culture.
