We later expanded the product lineup to include gummed tape for plywood and gummed tape for seals and labels.We advanced into the industrial field by developing new applications for adhesive materials, such as marking films used for vehicle body stripes and signage, functioning as peel-and-stick paint. In addition, the 1970s and 1980s marked a phase of entry into growth businesses, during which we successively launched new ventures, including the development and production of labeling machines and window films for building designed to enhance glass safety.In 1961, we began manufacturing automatic case sealing machines for corrugated boxes at the former Warabi Plant in Saitama Prefecture. In 1962, we established a dedicated department to produce automatic packaging machines (corrugated case sealers) and launched “system sales,” selling gummed tape and sealing machines as a package. This marked the foundation of our current business model, providing total solutions by combining soft ( materials) and hard (equipment) components to solve customer challenges.Focusing on the phenomenon of adhesive strength decreasing under ultraviolet (UV) light, we became the first in the industry to develop a UV-curable dicing tape that allows adhesive strength to be controlled by UV exposure. This marked our full-scale entry into the semiconductor field. The tape firmly holds semiconductor chips in place with strong adhesion during dicing, but after cutting, the chips can be easily removed by weakening the adhesive through UV irradiation. This innovation advanced the semiconductor industry significantly and continues to serve as one of our core products today.The former Warabi PlantMarking filmsGummed tape6Value Creation StoryThe approach of accurately identifying customer needs and finding tangible solutions through technological development may not be uncommon for a manufacturer. Even so, LINTEC has held fast to this commitment since its founding, consistently upholding it and passing it down through generations. This is precisely what has enabled our continued growth to this day. This DNA is an enduring source of value, and through the ongoing practice of “Sincerity and Creativity,” we will continue shaping a future yet unseen.
