AIXTRON and IRUJA Co. Ltd. sign Joint Venture Agreement

APEVA to become a complete OLED deposition system provider

 

Herzogenrath/Germany, October 24, 2018 - AIXTRON SE today announced a Joint Venture agreement by AIXTRON SE, Germany and IRUJA Co. Ltd., South Korea to invest in APEVA, AIXTRON's subsidiary for OLED deposition technologies. Closing of the Joint Venture Agreement is expected during 2018.


IRUJA will contribute their well-established Automation & Handling Technology for the display market into the Joint Venture in steps, also making cash contributions. In exchange for these contributions, IRUJA will obtain an equity stake in APEVA of up to 20% over the next few years. Furthermore, IRUJA will act as a manufacturing partner in Korea for APEVA to give access to a high quality local supply chain and manufacturing resources. AIXTRON has contributed its innovative OVPD technologies into APEVA, which enables the highly efficient deposition of organic materials in a very well controlled manner. Based on the contributions from both companies, APEVA will become a complete deposition system provider for the organic material layers within the OLED stack.
