In line with our policy under LSV 2030-Stage 1 of “Accelerating Development of ‘Number One, Only One’ Products,” this division aims to create high-value-added products in mature, growing, and new markets. In mature fields such as adhesive products for labels, industrial-related products, specialty paper, and release paper, we are developing products that create new value to achieve multifunctionality and high profit-ability by reducing costs and integrating the market needs and technologies of individual businesses. In growth areas, we will further enhance our competitiveness by strengthening devel-opment of electronics-related products, for which demand is expected to grow over the medium to long term. Specifically, we will work to improve the functionality of semiconductor-related adhesive tape, which requires high precision, and optical clear adhesive sheets for automotive displays. In new fields, we are nearing market launch for such developmental products as pellicles for EUV lithography systems, ultra-thin and lightweight Peltier modules, and transparent film heat-ers. For new businesses such as these, we will take a long-term perspective and continue the cycle of sowing, cultivating, and harvesting. We also consider it our responsibility to develop technologies that contribute to the realization of a sustainable society in all these areas. established the Unexplored Technology Research Department to look for and shape new technologies and the Innovation Promotion Department to maximize output by managing overall research and development. We see advances in DX as essential for enhancing our R&D capabilities. In addition to To achieve our long-term vision, LSV 2030, this April we using AI in patent searches, in some product designs we have begun to incorporate materials informatics (MI), which uses machine learning to develop materials more efficiently. In the future, we intend to expand the range of applications to speed up development and lead to revolutionary new products.Key R&D Themes under LSV 2030-Stage 11.
