History
The company was established by Tang Eng in May 1940. It was once the largest steel company in the Japanese-ruled Taiwan.[1] It transformed into a province-owned company in 1962, and reorganized as a state-owned company in 1999. The company has been reprivatized since 2006. At one time, Tang Eng also owned some brick making factories[2] which were abandoned in 1980s, and had been designated as historic monuments of Taiwan.
