Asahi Refining is a new branch of the Asahi Company based in Tokyo, Japan. Asahi was founded in 1952, and largely procured and refined precious metals through the recycling of other products. Asahi bought the former Johnson Matthey refineries in North America as the British multinational company exited the precious metals industry after more than 150 years of operation.
