Recycling of Steel Cans

Nippon Steel encourages improvement of the recycling ratio of used steel cans with the Japan Steel Can Recycling Association.

      The Japan Used Can Treatment Association was established by the following companies:

      4 tinplate makers (Nippon Steel, NKK (present JFE), Kawasaki Steel (present JFE) and Toyo Kohan)

      3 can-making companies (Toyo Seikan, Daiwa Can and Hokkai Can)

      8 trading companies

    • April 2001

      Renamed as the Japan Steel Can Recycling Association

Activities

  • Promotional activities for prevention of littering with empty cans and for recycling of used steel cans (investigation, PR campaigns, production and distribution of annual reports, holding of symposiums, seminars, and press release)
  • Support for group collection of used steel cans as recyclable materials (conferring the award for elementary schools, junior high schools, and citizens' groups)
  • Promotion of ecology education on steel can recycling (guidance for pupil in visiting steelworks)
  • Joint campaigns for beautification at 362 places (509 times) for 49 years since 1973
