Asahi Kasei has begun accelerating its activities towards the European automotive industry, beginning with the relocation of its European headquarters.

The relocation to Düsseldorf Harbour is rescheduled for the second half of 2020, as the company will consolidate its sales, marketing and R&D activities to further enhance its business approach to the European automotive industry.

Asahi Kasei Microdevices Europe and Asahi Kasei Europe R&D Center will also move to the new location, at the C-View office at Düsseldorf Harbour.
