Titanium Business
Titanium is a metal having properties, such as high-corrosion resistance, lightweight, high-strength, and biocompatibility. Utilizing such properties, the demand for titanium is increasing in a wide range of fields, including aircraft, plant facilities, buildings, and medical supplies to outdoor goods. The fields where titanium can be used and the applications are also expanding, because it can be used as an alternative material for other metals due to its various functionalities. Moreover, bright colors and finishing can be added by applying special processes to the surface of titanium therefore, usage in design applications is also increasing.
In such a titanium market, Kanematsu is enhancing the sales promotion of titanium utilizing the knowledge and experience acquired in the long transaction history of stainless steel and the good relationships with global processors and dealers of titanium.
