Japanese precious metal materials manufacturer TANAKA Precious Metals has a history spanning almost 140 years and, since its establishment in 1885, has grown to become an international provider of precious metal solutions to a wide range of industries. The company’s diversified business portfolio ranges from products for the electronics, semiconductor and automotive industries to the supply of precious metals in the form of jewelry and resources.
