TANAKA subsidiary exhibiting at major Japan forum

The main company operating TANAKA’s plating business, EEJA, will exhibit at the 39th electronics development and packaging exhibition NEPCON Japan held at Tokyo Big Sight from 22-24 January 2025. 

EEJA will premiere a range of new products in the field of plating technologies and processes to help meet rising needs in the electronics industry, including  automotive electronic components and semiconductors.

Taking advantage of precious metals technologies acquired by TANAKA over many years in the industry, EEJA develops and provides the plating technologies and products that are essential in the electronics industry, from semiconductors to electronic components. 

With the demand for greater sophistication in the electronics industry, EEJA will continue contributing to technical innovations in the industry.

Technologies in demand have become increasingly sophisticated in recent years, with the primary usage domain for electronic components shifting from local to network usage. 

In contrast, the communications industry has shifted from 5G to 6G to support increased data volumes and faster communication speeds. The automotive industry has also changed, with the increased use of electronic components and semiconductors around the engine and demand for products able to pass testing in harsh environments in terms of characteristics such as heat and moisture resistance in particular.

Founded in 1885, TANAKA is a precious metals specialist. It started as a money exchange business dealing with precious metals in Tokyo. Continuing through research, development and stable supply of precious metals and other materials, TANAKA proactively challenges environmental issues, energy measures and pollution measures.
