This business unit primarily handles downstream materials and products in the Non-Ferrous Metals division, with specialties in building materials for shops, office buildings and homes.

For shops, we offer a full lineup of support for the design, construction and maintenance of franchises, helping you to achieve greater efficiency, conserve energy resources, and better manage your costs. The unit utilizes centralized order issuing and acceptance for all of our materials, regardless of the distribution or logistics requirements. This achieves greater efficiency, helps to standardize store construction, and enables chains to select their own materials and specifications, thereby endeavoring to bring new efficiency to maintenance and management of CI.

In office building construction, we emphasize the development of new applications "ALPOLIC" (R), an aluminum compound sheet from Mitsubishi Plastics, Inc. This material is in high demand, not only for traditional applications such as external panels for nonflammable-grade buildings and train stations, but also as ceiling panels for office building with atrium and the interiors of train stations. It has found widespread use in both new construction and renovation.

This business unit is set apart by its inventories of a good range of sizes of nonflammable-grade "ALPOLIC/fr" (R) that can be selected according to the requirements of the specific property. The primary color is metallic silver, but others are available. We work quickly to provide fine-tuned support to the needs of customers in Japan.

We also make use of our expertise and experience in the construction field and our close ties with specialized domestic manufacturers to offer higher value-added products and address new market needs in environmentally friendly ways, for example, materials suited to the external insulation method.
