Nippon Denko Co., Ltd.
 PROFILE
Steelmaking without ferroalloys is like steelmaking in Japan without Nippon Denko. The company is the largest producer of ferromanganese (about 60% of sales) in Japan, accounting for approximately 40% of that country's annual production. The diversified company also produces industrial chemicals, advanced materials (fine ceramics), silicon metals, and water-purification products. Its alloys include ferrosilicon, a deoxidizing agent for steelmaking and additive for specialty steel. Nippon Denko sells its products to steel, chemical, aluminum, and other industries. The company has aligned itself with South African manganese ore-maker Samancor, which ensures Nippon Denko with a constant ferromanganese customer base.
