Adding a Subsidiaries section

edit

Hi, I am working to improve and expand the article. I'd like to suggest the addition of a Subsidiaries section including some information about each one, as follows:

Subsidiaries

Dowa Holdings has several subsidiaries, including Dowa Eco-System, Dowa Metals and Mining, Dowa Electronics Materials,[1][2] Dowa Metal Tech,[3] and Dowa Thermotech.[4]

Dowa Metals and Mining

In 2010, Dowa Metals & Mining Co. was the fourth-largest copper smelter in Japan.[5] As of January 2024, the company owned the largest zinc smelter in Japan.[6]

Dowa Eco-System

Dowa Eco-System manages waste and recycling in Asia, and runs a plant in Singapore which works to recover precious and nonferrous metals.[7] In 2016, Dowa Eco-System partnered with Padaeng Industry Plc (PDI) to build industrial waste management factories.[8][9] It developed the technology for Singapore’s first vertical waste incinerator.[10]

Dowa Electronics Materials was the largest supplier of indium in Japan as of 2010.[11]
