Japan Pure Chemical CO.,LTD. (the Company) is primarily engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of chemicals for the precious metal plating of contacts and connectors for the attachment of electronic components on printed circuit boards (including package substrates), and for connectors and lead frames. The Company is particularly skilled in the provision of comprehensive proposals that extend to advice on processes and after-sales services. This makes possible the development, manufacture and sale of products that closely match the needs of customers. Since its establishment in July 1971, the Company has consistently targeted the electronics industry. As a result, the Company has grown along with this industry through the provision of gold plating chemicals for semiconductor packages and connectors, silver plating chemicals, and palladium plating chemicals. When developing new products, the Company employs internal resources rather than relying on the adoption of technology from overseas, a stance that has resulted in the accumulation over many years of a storehouse of technology.
