Packaging

Décor Materials

Performance overseas was down year on year due to such factors as a slump in consumer demand caused by inflation in Europe and water damage to a plant caused by heavy rains in India, although flexible packaging performance was strong, with contributions including Majend Makcs, the Thailand-based flexible packaging producer acquired in May last year.

Year-on-year increase in Japan as a result of expansion of SX packaging using GL BARRIER, which delivers world-class barrier performance and meets needs for microwaveable and aluminum-free materials.

Despite impacts overseas including decreased demand caused by inflation in Europe and an increase in mortgage rates in North America, overall performance of the business was comparable to the previous year due to expansion of sales of eco-friendly décor sheets in Japan.

In the FC-BGA substrate business, increase for large, multilayer, high-value-added products centered on use for data centers and servers.

Robust performance for photomasks based on taking in demand for the Asian market.

Increase for anti-reflection films due to taking in demand for high-value-added products for laptop PCs and monitors. Decrease in overall sales due to lower demand for TFT-LCD panels for automotive and other applications.

As a product supporting next-generation displays, worked on expanding sales of LC MAGIC™, a light control film that changes from transparent to opaque at the flick of a switch. The film has been adopted for the world's first light control glass for automobile side windows.

Drove sales expansion for e-Platch™, a system that takes advantage of the ZETA next-generation LPWA network protocol to enhance the efficiency of remote monitoring of environmental data and maintenance of equipment at factories and facilities.
