In 1994, we established a production subsidiary in Indonesia for adhesive paper and film for labels. In 1995, we made our sales office in Singapore, which had been established in the previous year, into a locally incorporated sales subsidiary, and in Europe we established a sales subsidiary in the Netherlands. In these ways, we advanced the globalization of our business. At the same time, we worked to further strengthen our business foundation in Japan, acquiring a manufacturer of adhesive products and constructing a new building at our Research Center in 1995.During Japan’s high-growth period during the 1970s, the Company began manufacturing decorative film for automobiles and motor-cycles, in response to their increased production. The Company also entered the field of window film for buildings and automobiles. This film has insulative and energy-saving properties, and prevents shards from scattering when glass is broken.4In 1990, a vertical integration was implemented by three companies—a manufacturer with advanced adhe-sive technologies, a manufacturer with papermaking technologies for specialty paper, and a manufacturer with production technologies for release paper and film. This significant initiative resulted in the foundation of LINTEC Corporation. Since the merger of these three companies, we have accelerated global develop-ment with the aim of expanding business.LINTEC’s AdvancesIn 1927, we were established as a company engaged in the manu-facturing and sales of gummed tape for packaging. In the 1960s, we started to manufacture and sell adhesive paper and film, which are currently mainstay businesses for the Company. We subsequently expanded the scope of our adhesive operations to industrial fields, such as automobile-related areas. In 1986, we made a full-scale entry into the field of semiconductor-related products. The merger of three companies in 1990 established the foundation for our current position as a leading company in vari-ous adhesive products, specialty paper, release paper and film, and other products.Changes in Society and LINTEC’s Products 1927The Company was established in 1927 to manufacture and sell gummed tape, which was applied like postage stamps by adding water. This was at a time when demand was rapidly expanding for cardboard boxes, which were replacing wooden boxes. We began manufacturing and selling adhesive products for labels in 1960.Value CreationLINTEC’s HistoryFSK CORPORATIONSHIKOKU PAPER CO., LTD.SOHKEN KAKO CO., LTD.April 1990Foundation of LINTEC Corporation1960Achieving Steady Growth by Meeting the Needs of the Times
