The DOWA Group has developed a unique recycling-oriented business model that combines its five core businesses and ranges from metal production to the manufacture of products with high added value.

The Environmental Management & Recycling Business deals with waste detoxification and the separation and collection of metals from discarded or spent products or other sources for use as raw materials for smelting. The Nonferrous Metals Business is responsible for extracting useful metals from recycled raw materials and natural resources, namely metal ores.


The Electronic Materials Business, the Metal Processing Business, and the Heat Treatment Business perform various types of processing, including purity improvement treatment, electroplating, and heat treatment, to produce functional materials that help generate added value and are then incorporated in final products, such as automobiles and electronic devices. When these products, whether they are aimed at manufacturers, consumers, or anyone in between, reach the end of their life cycles, and the metals contained within are once again recovered by the Environmental Management & Recycling Business, which begins another cycle of this resource-recycling network.
