HIDAKA METAL Co., Ltd.

Hidaka Metal Co., Ltd. was established in February 2013 in Hidaka City, Saitama Prefecture, with the fundamental goal of becoming a company that significantly contributes to global environmental conservation. Since its founding, the company has positioned the recycling of limited metal resources at the core of its business operations, actively striving toward the realization of a sustainable society and the highly effective utilization of valuable resources. The management philosophy explicitly states a commitment to "aiming for zero waste through resource recycling and contributing to Japanese society," as well as "pursuing the happiness of all employees, which in turn leads to improved employee motivation and greater contributions to our customers." This unwavering dedication to both environmental protection and human well-being forms the solid foundation of all their business endeavors.

In its primary metal recycling business, the company provides comprehensive, one-stop services ranging from the purchase, meticulous sorting, and processing of non-ferrous metals—with a strong focus on copper, brass, coated copper wire, stainless steel, aluminum, and lead—and iron scrap, to their eventual sale in both domestic and international markets. Hidaka Metal is particularly known for its proactive capital investments designed to enhance quality and productivity across every stage of the recycling process, ensuring that recovered metal resources are efficiently reborn as new products. By consistently upgrading processing facilities and seeking greater operational efficiency, the company maintains a competitive edge. Furthermore, the company leverages its extensive network and unique agility to visit yard operators directly across Japan, enabling highly convenient services such as direct container exports.

In recent years, Hidaka Metal has rapidly diversified its business portfolio far beyond traditional metal recycling. The company now undertakes building demolition projects, the clearing out and dismantling of closed factories and offices, and the collection of unneeded items. In 2018, they launched a human resources dispatch service, and in April 2023, they opened the "Meitoku Gakuin Japanese Language School" for foreign residents within their comprehensive center in Tokorozawa City. This educational initiative highlights their active contribution to human resource development in Japan’s increasingly globalized society.

Backed by stable demand that supports social infrastructure, the company continues to achieve steady financial growth and has consistently expanded its network of operational bases primarily in the Kanto region. In addition to the original headquarters in Hidaka, they have established large-scale yards and branch offices in Fukaya (Saitama), Sodegaura (Chiba), and Shioya (Tochigi). They also acquired their own building in Tokorozawa to centralize headquarters functions and opened a Tokyo branch office in Otemachi, Chiyoda Ward, solidifying their robust management foundation for future business expansion. Hidaka Metal will continue to support the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) advocated by the United Nations, promoting environmental conservation activities and striving to meet the diverse needs of its customers with flexibility and speed.
