２. Purpose of the Costruction
Our valves for the Semiconductor Equipment market are a key product with the potential for long-term sales growth in our targeted Growth market. It will be one of the growth drivers in our Second Mid-term Management plan (FY 2025-2027).
We currently produce a significant portion of our standard valves for high-purity gas used in the semiconductor manufacturing process at our factories in China. In response to the projected increase in demand in the Semiconductor Equipment market, we will establish a new factory building at our Vietnam plant to expand production capacity, ensure stable supply, and diversify our production locations. With this investment, we aim to achieve an approximately 30% increase in production capacity by 2030 as planned.
We are confident that this construction project will contribute to our company’s growth.
