SKC

Since it was founded in 1976, SKC has developed and produced numerous “Korea’s Firsts” in specialty fields of film, chemicals, and materials, contributing to industrial development while growing into a global brand. Its past forty years were adorned with praises such as the “first in Korea” and the “first in the world” for areas in research and development.
Integrate high technology into film
The beginning was the first development of polyester film in Korea in 1977. At that time, polyester film was a high-tech product that only seven companies in the US and Japan could manufacture, so domestic development was remarkable. Since then, as SKC was the fourth company in the world to develop videotape in 1980, SKC became known to the world market. SKC’s videotape became very popular in the market, and the SKC soon became a brand name.
At present, SKC is producing films used for various purposes such as ▷ for display ▷ for packaging ▷ for graphic ▷ for electric insulation, etc., and is mainly focusing on commercializing specialty products such as transparent PI film used in foldable mobile phones.

Add wings with chemistry
SKC entered the chemistry business in 1991 by realizing localization of propylene oxide (PO). Since then, SKC was the first in the world to apply the HPPO method, which produces environmentally friendly PO to the field, and has been supplying downstream products such as propylene glycol (PG) that meet the needs of the market.
At present, SKC strives to increase its market share of high value-added PG used for cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. In addition, SKC is strengthening its speciality products by developing highly functioning polyurethane products (elastomers), such as buffer materials for automobile suspensions that have been dependent on import.
Facing High-tech Materials Speciality
SKC is concentrating on high-value-added speciality business such as transparent PI films, elastomers, etc. In particular, SKC is expanding its business into electronic materials and materials for semiconductor, by polishing the surface of semiconductor wafer, the ‘Ferrite sheets’, which is a core material for wireless communication for mobile phones used for short distance and by developing ‘CMP pad’, which is used to improve semiconductor integration, for the first time in Korea.

Becoming a global speciality marketer
SKC announced a new vision, ’Global Speciality Marketer’ for the 40th anniversary of its founding in 2016, with its intention to grow into a global company by concentrating its capabilities on speciality products based on the marketer’s consciousness of harmonizing the market and technology. SKC will endeavor to realize the new vision, ‘Global Specialty Marketer’ through endless thinking, research and development, and investment, and to lead the high value and high-tech material market.
