Kokusai Electric Corporation 国際電気株式会社
Chiyoda, Tokyo semiconductor-equipment maker founded 1949, spun off from Hitachi Kokusai Electric via KKR in 2018; listed on Tokyo Stock Exchange since 2023.
Kokusai Electric Corporation is a semiconductor-manufacturing-equipment maker headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan, tracing its founding to Kokusai Electric Co., Ltd., established in 1949 for telecommunications and high-frequency equipment. Its semiconductor deposition-equipment business operated for decades as part of Hitachi before Hitachi agreed in February 2017 to sell that unit to investment firm KKR; the business separated from Hitachi Kokusai Electric Inc. in June 2018 to become the present-day Kokusai Electric Corporation, and it listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market in October 2023.
The company builds film-forming and film-treatment equipment used in semiconductor device fabrication, with batch-type and single-wafer thermal processing systems for low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), and oxidation and diffusion furnace processes. Its tools are used by foundries and integrated device manufacturers for logic and memory chip production, including advanced process nodes.
Kokusai Electric's predecessor company first listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 1961, giving the group a public-market history of more than six decades before its 2023 Prime Market listing under the current corporate name. Its production sites hold ISO 9001 certification.

High-throughput batch LPCVD, ALD, and oxidation/diffusion furnace systems for front-end semiconductor wafer fabrication at leading foundries and IDMs globally.
