Beyond providing a stable supply of materials indispensable for the production of steel, the Ferrous & Recycling Materials Unit contributes to the realization of a carbon-neutral society through the use of biomass fuels.

The resources and fuels required by customers in this high-flux social environment are undergoing dramatic changes.
The steel raw materials we handle occupy the uppermost tier of the steel supply chain—from resources to finished products—and we have long contributed to Japan’s manufacturing sector through the stable supply of these materials. Moving forward, as a new business initiative that complements our existing operations, we will accelerate our handling of fuels that support decarbonization, such as biomass fuels, and contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society.

Features

Results and experience cultivated from a rich history in the steel resource business. But there's more to it than that.

Shinsho Corporation retains a long history of working with steel recycling products and steel materials like iron ore, coking coal, alloy steel, iron scrap, slag, and more. We do more than just import steel production materials and have successfully created a stable steel materials supply network through an Asia-centric trilateral trade agreement and investments that include coal mines in Australia and coking coal plants in Malaysia. Beyond steel production materials, we are also developing new markets that will stimulate demand for the RPF we have pioneered as a fuel alternative to coal. The change to advocating for carbon-neutral fuel has been a radical pivot for our company. However, we will continue to make full use of our long business history to maintain our presence as a company that can respond to a variety of needs by listening to customers and suppliers.

Accelerating the transition to a zero-waste business

To date, Shinsho Corporation has worked with renewable materials and fuels like steel scarp, slag products, RPF, wood shavings, and more to help create a circular society. We work daily to expand our handling of biomass fuels such as PKS (palm kernel shells) and wood pellets, while also contributing to the Japan’s renewable energy policies by promoting afforestation experiments and the reuse of combustion residues. Furthermore, we work to improve transportation efficiency and optimize inventory management to enhance the flexibility and reliability of our supply chain. Moving forward, in addition to developing new fuels and expanding our sales channels, we will focus on introducing technologies that contribute to carbon neutrality. We will continue to grow our business from a global perspective, aiming to balance environmental sustainability with economic viability.
