JNTC Successfully Develops Glass Substrate for Semiconductors

JNTC has succeeded in developing semiconductor glass substrates.

Leading 3D cover glass company JNTC (CEOs Yuntaek Kim and Namhyuk Cho) officially announced on the 26th that it was able to accelerate the development of semiconductor glass substrates (TGV) by integrating the accumulated elemental technologies from its various business sites over 30 years (JNTC's CNC processing technology, laser processing technology, JNTS's etching technology, COMET's plating technology, and JNTE's equipment technology).

In fact, JNTC formalized its entry into the semiconductor glass substrate (TGV) new business through a shareholders' meeting last March, and with the success of this prototype development, it announced that it has entered the build-up phase for full-scale mass production as of the end of June.

First, it has decided to establish a semiconductor glass substrate (TGV) demo line at its Vietnam Plant 3 in the third quarter of this year, and orders for key core equipment for each process have already been placed. The first round of investment funding for this has also been successfully completed with active participation from reputable institutions.

Additionally, JNTC stated, "Due to NDAs with customers, it is difficult to disclose specifics, but we are in discussions with numerous global semiconductor packaging companies both domestically and internationally regarding detailed plans for full-scale mass production and sales of semiconductor glass substrates (TGV) starting in the second half of 2025." They added, "By the end of this year, we will establish a global sales network and enter a full-scale mass production preparation system utilizing the site of Vietnam Corporation Plant 4, which is currently secured."

Regarding this, Namhyuk Cho, JNTC’s newly joined president last month to build the global sales network for the new business division, expressed confidence, saying, "With the completion of the company's prototype development, we will accelerate the establishment of a global sales network for full-scale mass production of the new business." He added, "As we face a golden opportunity to make a quantum leap from a specialized tempered glass company to a true global glass materials company, we will strive even harder to share the fruits of growth with our investors."
