Taeyang makes fuel canisters, small pressurised containers that hold gas for lighters and portable burners, as well as aerosol products.
Its fuel canisters reach consumers through domestic distributors, dealerships, and large retail outlets, while exports are shipped directly overseas; its aerosol products are supplied to major Korean companies on an OEM (made-to-order) basis. Listed on KOSDAQ, Korea's tech and small-cap board, the company earns the large majority of its revenue from its fuel canister line, with aerosol making up a much smaller share.
