TOKYO, JAPAN - Japan’s Tokyo Ohka Kogyo (TOK), a global manufacturer of semiconductor photoresists, has completed construction of its research and development (R&D) and manufacturing facilities in Songdo International City in Incheon.
The Incheon Metropolitan City government said that TOK Advanced Materials, a Korean subsidiary of TOK, held a ceremony last month marking the completion of the facilities for advanced materials used in semiconductors and LCDs at the Songdo High-tech Industrial Cluster (Zone 5).
The facilities were built with a KRW 200 billion investment from Japan’s TOK, the world’s no.1 manufacturer of photoresists for argon fluoride lithography, which is a semiconductor manufacturing process requiring high technology.
TOK established TOK Advanced Materials in Korea in August of 2012 for joint R&D with Korea’s global market leaders in the semiconductor and LCD industries and to supply its products to such companies in a stable manner.
