FABRICATED NONFERROUS METAL DIVISION The fabricated nonferrous metal division produces a full range of copper products from copper and copper alloy sheets, strips, tubes, rods, to processed copper products as well as some non-ferrous products so as to meet domestic demands and most of the export demands. In addition, it is currently on its way to realize its goal, the globalization of sales and production, by building an overseas production base in the U.S., China, Southeast Asia, and the pan-pacific belt. Recently, Poongsan increased investment on R&D, thereby increasing the sales of value-added copper products such as thin plates, thin tubes, bimetals, and coin blanks. The Company is forming strategic partnership with prominent foreign companies with the goal of enhancing the product quality and expanding export markets. Moreover, in preparation for future industrial environment, it is making active efforts in developing a wide range of new materials and creating new demands. Efforts are concentrated in making Poongsan a top-notch fabricated copper company in the 21st century by proceeding with the 6 Sigma activities and introducing the ERP system. copper and copper alloy sheets, strips, tubes, rods leadframe materials coin blanks, commemorative precious metal coin blanks copper-based roofing material titanium tubes stainless steel strips 2. DEFENSE PRODUCTS DIVISION In early 1970s, Poongsan led the defense industry in Korea and made significant contributions to the nations self-reliance in defense. It also enhanced the national armys power through mass production and localization of ammunitions. In addition to military ammunitions, sporting and hunting ammunition were developed and exported, thus becoming a world-class sporting ammunition manufacturer. Some of the recent achievements made by the Company include the development of high-performing and unique Korean-style ammunition models. With these new ammunitions, the Company transformed its production system into a technology-intensive, value-adding one and it is making efforts to further advance the defense industry by expanding the volume of exports of ammunitions and semi-finished products. military ammunition (ammunition for small arms, antiaircraft guns, mid-to large-size arms) various sporting ammunition propellant powder ammunition parts precision forging products 3. PRECISION PRODUCTS DIVISION Based on years of experience and accumulated technology in the fabricated nonferrous metal field, Poongsan has been producing new copper alloy materials for the semiconductor and electronic parts. The Company began developing PMC 102 in the early 1980s, and continued to develop numerous semiconductor leadframes including PMC102M, PMC26, and PMC90, and its own materials for connectors used in electrical and electronic industries. Poongsan went on to produce and supply C194 and C19210, globally renowned products, to domestic and overseas markets. Poongsan produced leadframes using its own stamping method in 1985 and an independent entity, Poongsan Microtec, was founded in 1991. Poongsan Microtec Corporation, a manufacturer specializing in leadframes, established a leadframe production plant in the Philippines in 1996 and this Company continuously strives to become a "comprehensive electronic part producer" by implementing management strategies such as reinforcing marketing and R&D activities and actively developing new businesses. Furthermore, Poongsan continues to expand its areas of business in precision dies and machinery production.

Nagano Prefectures plentiful water give birth to electric power and the limestone that came from Niigata Prefecture was a key raw material, which was called, "Oyashirazus great earth." Because of the presence of these two gifts of nature, Shin-Etsu Nitrogen Fertilizer Co., Ltd. was founded on September, 1926 to manufacture chemical fertilizer and limestone nitrogen.The history of Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. began from this point.The companys "Shin" comes from Shinano and "Etsu" is taken from Echigo.

Today, responses to environmental issues such as reducing CO emissions and preventing global warming are pressing tasks in the global political and economic field. With such background, diesel engines are attracting worldwide praise and attention. The pursuit of further advances and the associated costs of diesel engine development have led to global technical cooperation and new partnerships among commercial vehicle manufacturer in an effort to lower the individual burden on manufacturers. In these circumstances, there are growing expectations for our company as it offers a full lineup of diesel engines that meet the strict environmental standards of Japan, the United States and Europe. The mission of Isuzu Motors is to provide the cleanest, most fuel-efficient diesels developed in the most cost-effective way and to ensure stable supplies. The latest products to embody Isuzus advanced diesel and commercial vehicle technologies come from the 700 Project (700P), which covers ELF light-duty and FORWARD medium-duty trucks. Eliminating the conventional framework of light-duty/medium-duty and domestic/overseas, 700P series vehicles are developed as global standards and represent our drive for global leadership. The key to the commercial vehicle business in both domestic and overseas markets is to look at things from the standpoint of customers, providing optimal products and service which satisfies customers needs so that their trucks are always up and running. Based on this idea, in addition to superb "hardware," we also support customers from the "soft" side in such areas as extensive after-sales service and advice on reducing vehicle lifecycle costs. Overseas, our local manufacturing is structured to guarantee supplies of consistent quality as we strengthen our sales system and after-sales service. In our diesel engine operations, we have established the unique position of offering a full lineup of products to cover a broad spectrum of vehicles, from light-duty passenger vehicles to heavy-duty trucks. Moreover, we supply not only the engines for our own commercial vehicles but also the powerplants for other manufacturers commercial and passenger models as well as industrial-use engines. In the future, cooperation with Toyota holds the promise of new development.
