Masahiro Kawasaki, Representative Director

In pursuit of global technologies
-The leading deposition process technology for semiconductor wafers and optical wafers in Japan-

KST World Corp., established in May 1998 as an affiliate of Kawasaki Sangyo Co., Ltd headquartered in Fukui City, is the leading Japanese company specializing in deposition process service for silicon wafers.

We serve as a wafer foundry, providing various services to deposit films on silicon wafers meeting customers’ needs. Our deposition process service include oxide film, which enjoys the highest demand in the industry today, and nitride film. In addition, we respond to the diverse needs of customers by creating films of different thicknesses, from common thin films to thick ones. KST is a specialist in producing thick films.

Following the financial crisis in the U.S., the economic situation has drastically changed and a recession is looming. The semiconductor industry faces challenging conditions such as declining orders and falling capacity utilization, and the situation will continue for the foreseeable future.

Under the circumstances, KST World Corp. will streamline its overall operations and actively improve its processing technologies to meet the quality demand of its customers.

We will continue to thrive in our businesses and would appreciate your continued support.
