We procure and supply steel products from around the world for our customers, with a focus on Kobe Steel Group products.
We strive to create new added value by utilizing our history of building supply chains, such as establishing local secondary processing manufacturers, refining logistical capabilities, and more.
Information management capabilities regarding material supply chains and manufacturing expertise are essential in the creation of stable procurement lines, securing product supply and ensuring product quality around the world. Based on the close partnership and trust relationships with KOBELCO group, the Shinsho Corporation utilizes its unique global network spanning the Americas, China, Thailand and many other countries and regions to establish a procurement and supply system in accordance with customers' requests regarding product quality and price. We also dispatch Shinsho Corporation employees to local secondary processing manufacturers and partner companies so that they can understand local manufacturing and increase product knowledge in order to improve their information gathering capabilities and added value. Furthermore, we develop human resources whose skills are sufficient for becoming involved in the management of our business. The Iron & Steel Unit mission is to look at things from the customer's perspective, pursue customer satisfaction, think about and implement the methods that will maximize our pursuit of customer satisfaction and continue to be committed to the proposal of solutions.
The Iron & Steel Unit aims to become a business entity that continues to support manufacturing by building material supply chains that meet customer needs and providing effective solutions. Furthermore, we aim to evolve from being a “sales agent for Kobe Steel’s products” to becoming an “indispensable partner that thinks and acts independently, based on strong relationships of trust with our customers” across all product categories, including wire rod, steel sheets, automotive parts, construction materials, titanium, and stainless steel. To achieve these goals, we are making business investments and pursuing M&A, while also boldly taking on new challenges, including the development of new business areas.
KOBELCO wire rods and bars are used in the automotive industry and other fields. Working with secondary processors, Shinsho provides customers with a reliable supply of high value-added wire rod and bar products.
Known for it superb processability and weldability, KOBELCO steel plates provide the foundation for a wide range of industries.
Kobe Steel produces high-strength steel sheet, another product that Shinsho supplies.
Applications for titanium are expanding in many fields. Shinsho supplies KOBELCO titanium products to meet diverse customer needs.
We provide a steady supply of various KOBELCO steel alloy powders, which are highly regarded overseas as material for making automotive and other sintered parts.
