Doosan Corp., a leading supplier of critical materials for high-tech devices, is expanding its operations in China to meet growing demand for copper-clad laminates (CCLs). These essential components are used in advanced microchips, artificial intelligence servers, and smartphones. The company recently signed an investment agreement with Changshu, a city in Jiangsu province, to develop new CCL production lines adjacent to its existing facility.
This agreement was finalized on Thursday at Suzhou City Hall, alongside Suzhou Mayor Wang Wei, Doosan President Yoo Seung-woo, and Kim In-wook, head of Doosan's Electronics Business Group. The project is part of a broader investment plan valued at approximately 970 billion won ($670 million), with 550 billion won allocated specifically for China.
Doosan intends to develop a 185,000-square-meter site near its current Changshu factory, with the construction and operation of the new production lines slated to begin in stages through 2028.
