It was reorganized into a wholly owned subsidiary and incorporated into the ASAHI YUKIZAI Group in 1999. It has cultivated many different markets including steelmaking, chemical, semiconductor and other plants, aquariums and mines, not merely in the United States but in South America, Europe and other countries around the world. In 2014, it expanded and moved from Medford, Massachusetts to its current location in Lawrence.
The new head office and plant building is twice as large as the old one, with a three-story office building, laboratory, showroom and fully equipped training facilities.
We opened the Europe liaison office in Germany. As a representative office, it had long provided sales support for local distributors. In October 2014, we made it a local subsidiary, ASAHI AV EUROPE GmbH, in hopes of future sales growth in Europe. It is bolstering its sales in areas where it is strong, such as steelmaking, chemicals and seawater desalination.

Asahi Organic Chemicals (Nantong) Co., Ltd.: A production base for phenol resins for molding and electronic materials
Recognizing the potential of the car industry in China and the rest of Asia, in December 2006 we built a base for the production and sales of phenol resins for molding, mainly targeting Japanese automobile manufacturers. In March 2012, forecasting growth in the liquid crystal display (LCD) panel and semiconductor industry in China, we built a plant for phenol resins for electronic materials in the same premises. We optimize production with our Aichi Plant, the main production base of phenol resins in Japan, to reliably supply high quality resins to customers around the world.
Recognizing the future potential of the car industry in India, we established this joint venture company with India-based Modi Rubber Limited in November 2012. It is headquartered in the Gujarat state city of Ahmedabad. Raw sand material from which RCS is produced is procured from a high quality silica sand mine in Gujarat, whereas the phenol resin for coating is imported from our subsidiary in the Chinese city of Nantong. In India, where the automobile industry is expected to grow at high speed in the future, it has constructed an extensive supply system to supply high quality RCS.
In the steelmaking, chemical and semiconductor industries, more and more materials used on construction sites are procured within the Southeast Asian region. In response to this trend, a joint venture company was set up in January 2016 with AGRU TECHNOLOGY PTE. LTD., a general distributor of pipes and other piping materials in Singapore. In addition to high quality products, a strength of both parent companies, the new company serves as a distribution center covering the whole Southeast Asian region, securing an unmatched array of products. It aims to step up sales activities and to expand sales in Southeast Asia.
Our Thailand Office was set up in September 2008 with a view to providing sales support for local distributors and for market surveys. Today, it cultivates demand from Japanese chemical, steel, plating and other manufacturers in a bid to win more orders and it is accelerating its market development, not only in Thailand but also in Vietnam, the Philippines, Myanmar and Cambodia. It works with ASAHI ASIA PACIFIC PTE. LTD., established in 2016, to boost sales of plastic piping materials throughout Southeast Asia.
In December 2013, we opened the Korea office with the aim of expanding sales of Dymatrix products for the semiconductor manufacturing systems sector to the Korean market and Korean companies. In August 2014, it was reorganized into a local subsidiary under the name of ASAHI KOREA CO., LTD. It is based in the city of Suwon, which is conveniently located as a major city in Gyeonggi-do, home to many Korean IT-related companies.
