We therefore position intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, and design rights acquired through these development activities as important management resources. Making respect for the rights of other companies our basic premise, the Intellectual Property Department coordinates with respective business operations and R&D depart-ments in promoting strategic intellectual property activities. These activities aim to increase and improve intellectual property rights, which are the lifeblood of LINTEC given that it is a technology-centered company. By such means as building a patent portfolio for our foundation and growth business domains and securing intel-lectual property in step with the globalization of our business, we aim to maximize profits on the products we develop.Part of the LINTEC Group’s mission as a manufacturer is to consider the environment in the product development and production pro-cesses. The Group aims to become carbon neutral with net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050. As a part of this effort, “Carbon Neutral Challenge” was adopted as a slogan for the Research & Development Division, which will focus more on product development that is envi-ronmentally friendly at every stage, from production through to product disposal, such as by stopping the use of solvent in products to help reduce CO2 emissions and by using plant-derived biomass and biodegradable materials.To sustain growth, in addition to expanding existing operations, the LINTEC Group must create new products and businesses that go beyond the boundaries of conventional technologies. Under its long-term vision, LSV 2030, the Company is focusing efforts on the fields of electronics, energy, thermal, resources and emissions, and the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle). We aim to create products that will be pillars of new businesses and help solve social issues.3,0002,4001,8001,200600Removable-type adhesive products for labels using biomass materialsElectronicsEnergyThermalResources and emissions3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle)0 Japan 2018 Overseas20192020• Pellicles for EUV lithography systems• Materials for next-generation device manu-facturing processes, etc.• Ultra-thin thermoelectric modules• High-performance window film, etc.• Ultra-thin and lightweight Peltier modules• Transparent film heaters, etc.• Biodegradable products• Biomass products, etc.• High-frequency dielectric heating adhesive film• Recyclable products, etc.(Fiscal years ended March 31)44Research and DevelopmentNumber of PatentsMajor Fields of FocusIntellectual Property ActivitiesCarbon Neutral ChallengeCreating New Products and Businesses for the Next Generation
