Under the MoU, Sumitomo Chemical will examine measures to a stable supply of semiconductor materials, including the possible establishment of a semiconductor chemicals facility in India.

India's government has made growing its semiconductor sector a national strategic priority, and Tata Electronics is building the country's first front-end semiconductor fabrication plant. With India's semiconductor and materials markets set to expand, Sumitomo Chemical sees the project as a way to enhance the sector's foundation locally.

Sumitomo Chemical has made semiconductor materials a priority within its ICT & Mobility Solutions sector, supplying cutting-edge photoresists and semiconductor chemicals, and building a reputation in high-purity chemicals through ultra-high-purity technologies, condition assurance and global supply capabilities.

The company has also been expanding this business globally, growing capacity in Japan and South Korea, opening a site in Texas in 2022, and acquiring Asia Union Electronic Chemical Corporation in 2026, with vegetation in Taiwan and Nevada. It has also launched cutting-edge High-Purity Chemical Centers in Japan and South Korea in 2026 to develop production and recycling technologies. The possible Tata Electronics partnership will help it assess further opportunities in India.
