Accordingly, as customer companies strengthen their quality management standards, the demand for accredited calibration services continues to grow steadily.

This agreement was promoted in response to these market changes by combining Daejin Semiconductor’s industrial customer network with HCT’s accredited calibration expertise, to provide customers with more systematic and professional calibration services.

Through this agreement, the two companies plan to jointly identify calibration needs and provide customized technical services by linking Daejin Semiconductor’s semiconductor and electronics industry customer network with HCT’s accredited calibration capabilities and service expertise.

By offering integrated services from customer consultation to calibration execution, they aim to enhance customer convenience, jointly expand their base of new clients, and secure long-term customer relationships, thereby strengthening the competitiveness of their calibration business.

HCT is the only calibration institution in Korea recognized simultaneously by KOLAS and the American A2LA. It provides global-level calibration services in a wide range of industrial fields, including electrical and electronics (automotive electrical systems, batteries, defense, satellites, communications, testing agencies, etc.), environment (fine dust, temperature and humidity, wind speed, etc.), and pharmaceuticals/biotechnology.

In particular, based on its experience and technical know-how in calibrating precision measuring instruments required in the semiconductor and electronics industries, HCT supports customers in securing equipment reliability and strengthening quality management systems.

Daejin Semiconductor is a company with an extensive sales network and customer base built in the distribution of semiconductors and electronic components, and has maintained close cooperative relationships with clients in various industries.

Through this agreement, Daejin Semiconductor will identify calibration needs among its existing clients, while HCT will provide professional services such as calibration execution for those clients.

Bongjae Heo, CEO of HCT, stated, "Calibration is an essential factor for maintaining quality competitiveness in manufacturing sites. Through this agreement, we will help semiconductor and electronics industry clients access accredited calibration services more easily and conveniently. Going forward, we will continue to expand partnerships with various industry players to further strengthen the competitiveness of our calibration business."

Seongseo Park, Chairman of Daejin Semiconductor, said, "This agreement has established the foundation to provide not only product supply but also calibration services in an integrated manner. We will continue to offer a variety of technical services that help enhance our customers’ quality competitiveness together with HCT, building a long-term partnership."
