About TANAKA Precious Metals
TANAKA Precious Metals is a Japanese manufacturer of precious metal products for industrial applications. The portfolio includes bonding wires made of gold, silver, and copper for semiconductor interconnection technology, exhaust gas catalysts (oxidation, deodorization, VOC, and combustion catalysts) based on platinum and platinum group metals, thick film pastes and precious metal powders, as well as precious metal plating processes. Further product areas are electrical contact materials made of cadmium-free silver oxide, sheets, wires, and tubes made of platinum and platinum group metals, materials for inspection and temperature measurement, and precious metal catalysts in the form of powders, compounds, nanoparticles, and pellets. In addition, the company offers a recycling system with recovery, refining, and reprocessing of precious metals, as well as the custom manufacture of platinum equipment for glass melting furnaces. Target industries are automotive, semiconductors, energy/hydrogen, consumer electronics, recycling, medical technology, and the glass industry. The headquarters is located in Tokyo (Nihombashi Kayabacho), Japan.
