- EG Corporation is a South Korea-based industrial materials and engineering company engaged in the manufacture of inorganic chemical products, advanced energy materials, environmental plant engineering, and industrial commodity trading. Founded in 1987 as Samyang Industry Co., Ltd. and renamed EG Corporation in September 1999, the company is headquartered in Gwangyang-si, South Korea. The company operates primarily through three business divisions: Materials, Engineering and Environment, and Trading. EG Corporation's product and service portfolio comprises high-purity iron oxide utilized in the manufacturing of magnetic ferrites and industrial pigments; ferrite powders for soft and hard ferrite components; specialized compound powders, including nickel-zinc formulations and electromagnetic wave absorbing blocks; next-generation energy materials in research and commercialization, such as nanoscale silicon powders, non-carbon anode materials, solid oxide fuel cell anode components, and solid hydrogen storage media; turnkey environmental plant engineering services encompassing industrial waste incineration facilities, biomass plants, waste heat recovery systems, gasification power facilities, material drying systems, industrial dust collection equipment, and carbon capture and storage solutions; and commercial trading operations supplying scrap metals, structural H-beam steel, and specialty minor metals including molybdenum and vanadium, alongside solar energy generation and industrial leasing. The company primarily caters to electronics manufacturers, steel producers, environmental utilities, and energy enterprises across South Korea and international markets. In recent operational developments, EG Corporation expanded its overseas engineering operations by securing a multi-year industrial dust collection equipment supply and technical services contract valued at approximately KRW 6.1 billion with Ilkwang ENC Co., Ltd. for deployment in Kazakhstan through 2028. Additionally, the company has continued to accelerate its strategic expansion into secondary battery supply chains, leveraging its proprietary iron oxide purification capabilities and long-standing production line management partnerships with steelmakers such as POSCO to advance material solutions for lithium iron phosphate battery chemistries and silicon-based secondary battery anodes.
