Completing an all-solid-state battery pilot line In March 2023, we completed a 6,500 ㎡-sized all-solid-state battery pilot line at the SDI R&D Center. This facili- ty dedicated to all-solid-state battery manufacturing will drive our efforts to secure manufacturing technology as well as producing industry-leading research outcomes for all-solid-state battery.

Further tapping into markets in the Americas Samsung SDI partnered with GM (Gen- eral Motors) to establish an EV battery joint venture in the US. With a goal of initiating mass-production in 2026, we will invest more than USD 3 bil- lion to build a plant with over 30GWh in annual capacity. Following our first joint venture formed with Stellantis, this partnership will create our second battery production facility in the US to further drive our efforts to tap into the US market.

Securing DC box solutions with best-in-class safety performance for the SBB

Expanding our cylindrical battery line in Malaysia

Leading the market with FOCA and initiating the development of inorganic photoresists We launched competitive products on the strength of our exceptional FOCA (Foldable Optical Clear Adhesive) tech- nology, leading the display materials market in 2022. We also initiated the development of inorganic photoresists (PR) noted for its potential for sizable growth in the next-generation semiconductor market, and are currently engaging in sample evaluation.

To cater to the recent growth in cylin- drical battery demand, Samsung SDI invested KRW 1.7 trillion in expanding our cylindrical battery line in Malaysia. The 2nd plant where our PRiMX cylin- drical battery will be manufactured broke ground in July 2022 and is set for completion in 2025.

Samsung SDI secured battery DC box solutions that satisfy the most rigorous safety criteria set out in today’s global standards. In so doing, we increased the installed battery capacity within the SBB (Samsung Battery Box), and integrated all devices required for op- eration to improve our competitive- ness from the TCO perspective.
