Diamond tools are cutting tools used in industries such as semiconductors, automobiles, construction, and aerospace, made by mixing diamond particles, which are hard materials, with various metal powders and then placing them in molds before applying heat and pressure.
Saesol Diamond Industry Co., Ltd. primarily manufactures diamond tools such as CMP pad conditioners required in the IT industry, particularly in semiconductors. The company supplies products to domestic semiconductor corporations like Samsung Electronics and SK hynix, and has also entered the markets in the United States and China.
Saesol Diamond Industry Co., Ltd. is led by its founder, CEO Maeng Joo-ho. The company recorded a revenue of 196.4 billion won and an operating profit of 74.6 billion won last year, marking a growth of 46% and 85% compared to the previous year, respectively.
A representative of Saesol Diamond Industry Co., Ltd. noted that 'performance improved due to growth in the Chinese market.'
Meanwhile, after President Lee's visit, the number of visitors to the Saesol Diamond Industry Co., Ltd. website has surged, resulting in the site being temporarily inaccessible.
