The core of the 400-year-old Sumitomo Spirit is to engage in business that contributes to society by being in harmony with the local communities where production and business are conducted.
The Sumitomo Metals Group has inherited this DNA and contributes to local communities, with due respect to environmental preservation and through activities such as sports events, plant tours, and volunteer activities.

Sumitomo Metals provides cooperation and support in a broad range of areas including academics and education, culture, arts, sports, local community activities, welfare, and disaster relief
