Sumitomo Bakelite is serving the IC encapsulating material market as a top share supplier in the world. Since 1971, with persistent efforts towards technological innovations, we have been playing the leading role in the industry. An integrated manufacturing system comprising of 5 plants in 4 countries(i.e. Utsunomiya, Kyushu, Singapore, China, Taiwan) facilitates smoother delivery to clients worldwide. We provide encapsulating materials in a wide range to comply with versatile requirements for semiconductor packages.

Sumitomo Bakelite collected its production of paper phenolic resin copper-clad laminates into SNC Industrial Laminates in Malaysia. SNC develops new products through close cooperation with related divisions in Japan. Its products' line-up are Low odor, Environment friendly, For lead free solder and so on.

SNC provides high quality products to customers around the world.

Recycling of phenolics wastes is carried out. Please see the catalog page of phenolic molding compounds SUMIKON^® PM for details.
Phenolic molding compound an engineering plastic which has well balanced properties of heat resistance, dimensional stability, electrical and mechanical properties. In order to cope with internationally expanding demand we have manufacturing plants in Japan, Singapore, U.S.A., Canada and Suzhou near Shanghai, China.

We are supplying phenolic resins which are friendly to the Earth and working environments by using our proprietary reaction technology of our own development.. They are lined up in versatile eco-friendly assortments including types perfectly water-soluble and free from organic solvents, of minimized unreacted monomer residue down to the lowest level to clear regulated standards by such as Industrial Safety & Health Law, The Regulating Law for Toxic and Poisonous Substances, The Fire Service Law, and also the lowest environmental load-imposing type free
from any substances which provide adverse impacts on environments.

Exploring such materials as are friendly to both human beings and the Earth we are making daily efforts of investigations. Take the familiar flexible printed circuits used nearby for instance, we are working for lead free and halogen free substrates and rewarded with favorable results.

SUMILITE^® GS-8001 is heat resistant and flame resistant PPE sheet which was developed in consideration of the environmant as well for the electric insulation.
