Kazutoshi Ichikawa wins major award

Dr Kazutoshi Ichikawa (PT Group Member) who is now at the Nippon Steel and Sumitomo Metal Corporation, has won a major award.

The award is from the Japan Society of Naval Architects and Ocean Engineers for the "Invention and Application of Highly Ductile Steels for Ship Structures". This particular steel plate prevents tearing of the structure and oil leakage in the event of collision accidents and so it contributes to preserving the natural environment.

Many congratulations!
