Nippon Steel Corporation (日本製鉄株式会社, Nippon Seitetsu kabushiki gaisha) (previously known as Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal until 2019) is Japan's largest steelmaker, headquartered in Marunouchi, Chiyoda, Tokyo.[4] The company has four business segments, including steelmaking, engineering, chemicals, and system solutions.[5] It is the largest producer of crude steel in Japan and the fourth largest in the world.[6]
The company is on the Forbes Global 2000 list, ranked 1971 in 2023.[7] The company is the third incarnation of the Nippon Steel name, each time with a slightly different spelling or pronunciation. The original company, known as Japan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. (日本製鐵, Nihon Seitetsu), was split into two separate companies in 1950. These two companies later merged in 1970 to form Nippon Steel Corporation[a] and this name lasted until 2012, when it merged with Sumitomo Metal Industries.[8] The company’s English name reverted to its 1970 name in 2019, while its Japanese name returned to the original 1934 name.
