- Kokusai Electric Corporation (TSE: 6525) manufactures and sells semiconductor manufacturing equipment with a focus on batch-type thermal processing systems for wafer fabrication. The company offers a range of products including vertical furnaces such as VERTRON series for diffusion, low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LP-CVD), oxidation, and annealing processes; single wafer processing tools like DLEP for deep level etching and deposition; and advanced cleaning systems including Exion for post-CMP cleaning and other wet processing equipment. It also provides spare parts, refurbishment services, and after-sale support through its global service network; key brands encompass proprietary technologies like Reduced Pressure-Chemical Vapor Deposition (RP-CVD) and Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) capabilities integrated into its thermal platforms. Founded in 1941 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Kokusai Electric operates primarily in the semiconductor industry, serving major chipmakers in Asia, North America, and Europe with equipment tailored for logic, memory, and power device production. The company targets leading foundries and integrated device manufacturers (IDMs) seeking high-throughput, energy-efficient solutions for 200mm and 300mm wafers across logic, DRAM, NAND flash, and analog segments. Its geographic footprint includes manufacturing facilities in Japan and sales subsidiaries in key markets such as the United States, South Korea, Taiwan, China, and Europe. In recent developments, Kokusai Electric completed its relisting on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2023 following a management buyout and privatization by private equity firm KKR, marking a strategic shift to accelerate growth amid booming semiconductor demand. The company announced expanded production capacity for its VERTRON furnaces in 2025 to meet surging orders from AI and high-performance computing sectors; it also formed a strategic alliance with a major U.S. foundry for customized ALD tool development. Additionally, Kokusai launched the next-generation Exion+ cleaning system in late 2024, featuring enhanced throughput and reduced chemical usage for advanced nodes below 3nm.
