2023.03.29

Dexerials Corporation (Headquarters: Shimotsuke-shi, Tochigi; Representative Director and President: Yoshihisa Shinya; hereinafter “Dexerials”), which provides leading-edge technologies, materials, and devices for smartphones, automobiles, and other products, announced today that it will revise its organizational structure and appoint executive officers and a division head as described below, effective as of April 1, 2023.

Through this organizational reform, personnel changes, and the job-type personnel system to be introduced on the same date, Dexerials aims to achieve sustainable growth and raise corporate value by accelerating growth in new business domains.
As part of the organizational reforms, Dexerials will establish a company-wide unified manufacturing platform within the Production Strategy Division by transferring the manufacturing functions of the Connecting Materials Business Unit and the Optical Solutions Business Unit to the Production Strategy Division. As a result, Dexerials will further drive initiatives to improve productivity, including optimal allocation of manufacturing resources and DX at production sites. Each business division will focus on expanding new businesses, such as in new product development.
In addition to establishing the Sustainability Promotion Division as a department to promote measures for the sustainable growth of Dexerials and contribute to the creation of a sustainable society, Dexerials will also seek to strengthen its business management functions by integrating DX, information system, public relations and investor relations and organizations into the Corporate Planning & Control Division and reorganizing it as the Business Management Division. The current Corporate Strategy Division will be dissolved, and the officers in charge and subordinate organizations will collaborate with the Dexerials Innovation Group (DIG), which is responsible for driving company-wide technology strategies, while engaging in initiatives for growth in new business areas.
In human resources, Dexerials has established a new Human Resources Division with the aim of utilizing human resources globally and strengthening its portfolio management functions.

Based on the above division structure, Dexerials will design roles and duties that make up each organizational structure under a job-type personnel system, and implement its growth strategy.
