Creating the future from here
Our company originated from Toshiba Ceramics which transferred silicon wafer business from Toshiba Corporation in 1977.
We became independent from Toshiba group as a Covalent Materials by management buyout in 2006. In 2013, business transfer was made to Global Wafers a subsidiary of Sino American Silicon Products Inc in Taiwan then we became Global Wafers Japan.
In 2016, silicon wafer business of SunEdison which originated from Monsanto Electronic Material Company (MEMC) and has 60 years of history, joined the Global Wafers Group.
In Japan, MEMC Japan, the Japanese plant of SunEdison joined group of Global Wafers Japan.
Silicon wafers are the substrates of semiconductors. In order to respond to the high integration of semiconductor devices and the improvement of production efficiency, silicon wafers require constant technological innovation and quality improvement.
In order to meet these customer needs, we have been providing high-quality products by leveraging the experience and cutting-edge technology which we have cultivated since our days at Toshiba Ceramics.
We will continue to push forward with our business to solidify our position as a global player in the industry.
