Antibacterial power of copper! Metal material "copper" Tsumiya Metal 【Free materials available!】
There is a reason why copper and its alloys have been used for a long time around us! Copper and its alloys are metals that can exhibit antibacterial properties simply by being installed.
Copper alloys, such as copper and brass (the material of the 5 yen coin) and nickel silver (the material of the 100 yen coin), have antibacterial properties. For example, simply using them in areas that are frequently touched, such as handrails and door handles, can yield these effects. They are particularly noted in hospitals and schools to prevent hospital-acquired infections, being used in bed frames and medical trays, as well as attaching brass tabletops to desks and using ballpoint pens with copper grips, effectively reducing the spread of bacteria.

basic information
■ Suppresses bacterial growth. Also has sterilization and disinfection effects. Numerous proven examples including Legionella and O-157 (Japan Copper Center, General Incorporated Association) ■ Clean Bright (registered trademark of Mitsubishi Materials Corporation) A refined color tone of white copper alloy. It can be used without discomfort as a so-called metal color and is also an excellent corrosion-resistant copper alloy. ■ "Just keep a 10-yen coin in your shoe..." Have you ever heard such a story? This utilizes the sterilizing effect of copper to suppress the growth of bacteria that cause odors, promoting deodorization. ■ Copper pipes for household plumbing There was a past misconception that verdigris (copper rust) is harmful to the human body, which led to the limited adoption of copper plumbing. (In Europe and the U.S., the adoption rate exceeds 80%.) Copper, which is also a necessary substance for the human body, has been proven to have a sterilizing effect on E. coli. By using copper pipes for the water supply that we use every day, we can achieve a twofold effect. For more details, please download the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Company information
<Metal Materials Trading Division> With a rich inventory and four slitting facilities, we supply materials nationwide from our Higashi-Osaka Coil Center. We specialize in the sale of copper alloy materials and non-ferrous metal materials. In addition to traditional copper alloy materials, we are actively promoting the next-generation copper-aluminum clad material "CCA" in collaboration with ACM (Applied Composite Material Corp.). <Metal Processing Division> We excel in processing small quantities of a wide variety of metal pipes. Our diverse techniques include coil winding, R-bending, various bending processes, and welding. We handle everything from one-off parts used in heat exchanger components and machinery to larger quantities for automotive, consumer, and residential applications. In the world of bending processing, where small lots are common, the presence or absence of molds becomes quite important. We propose a mix of our own molds and equipment, as well as those from partner factories. Additionally, our precision cutting processing using NC automatic lathes leverages the procurement advantages unique to Tatsumiya, which has a metal materials trading division, enhancing customer satisfaction through technical expertise, procurement power, and cost efficiency. With over 90 years of establishment as a processing trading company, we view the 100-year mark as a milestone and will continue to build a great company in the future.
