At JCU, we have created a "technology" category in our long-term corporate goals and identified important issues (materiality). As an R&D-based company, in order to realize our vision, it is essential that we continue to develop and spread cutting-edge technology, and we are moving forward with a variety of initiatives to achieve this. JCU will continue to strive to be a company that contributes to society through technology and can grow together with society.

New brand "TIPHARES" series

As semiconductors continue to improve in performance, new demands and technical requirements are arising in the fields of semiconductor front-end and back-end processing. In our business area of surface treatment chemicals, there is a demand for new packaging technology to achieve high-density mounting, which is also known as advanced semiconductor packaging.

JCU has launched a new brand, "TIPHARES," and aims to enter this sector by leveraging the expertise in acid copper plating and etching for forming fine wiring.

New site/Kumamoto Facility

We are currently constructing the Kumamoto Facility, which will serve as the foundation for supporting JCU’s medium- to long-term growth. The facility will primarily focus on the development of semiconductor-related products, which we see as our Next-generation market sectors.

Additionally, we aim to boost the efficiency of the Plant’s business operations by consolidating the Development, Production, and Customer Support Divisions in one location and strengthening the collaboration between them.
