In 2005, Pac Tech doubled its sales worldwide to approximately 14 million Euros. Nagase began selling Pac Tech’s equipment and technology licenses in Japan in 2000, giving Pac Tech a boost in the Japan market. Pac Tech’s strong presence in Japan and China should enable Pac Tech to double their overall sales of back-end equipment and materials over the next 3 years from approximately 6 billion JPY in 2005, claims Kazuo Nagashima, Nagase’s director executive officer.
