Addressing Customers' Diverse Demands

MCC currently manufactures and sells polyester films at five sites globally (Japan, China, Indonesia, the US and Germany). In addition, MCC is also deploying a polyester film processing (coating) business mainly for optical applications, including smartphones and displays. In recent years, the performance required of films is becoming more sophisticated.

MCC decided that it could build a system that can quickly respond to the sophisticated demands of a wide range of customers through synergies with the technology, knowhow, human resources, and processing facilities possessed by Nakai Industrial. Accordingly, MCC made the decision to acquire all the shares of Nakai Industrial.

MCC is implementing a growth strategy, including adding a new line in Indonesia, for the purpose of addressing brisk demand for its high-performance polyester films, which are mainly used in optical applications and telecommunication devices. MCC will be able to accelerate its undertakings by expanding its processing technologies through this recent acquisition of shares in Nakai Industrial.
