Create a strong Sharp brand
with AQUOS transforming
lifestyles around the world
No. 1 Plant
No. 2 Plant
The Kameyama Plant (Mie Prefecture) realizes start-to-finish production from LCD panels to LCD TVs
15
The television is one of the most pervasive consumer appliances around us. It sits in
almost all living rooms and is used on a daily basis.
Since their launch in 2001, Sharp’s AQUOS LCD TVs have gained high praise for
their outstanding image quality resulting from superb functionalities such as high resolu-
tion, and for their environmental-friendliness evident in long-life and outstanding energy-
saving performance. The superior features of AQUOS have resulted in Sharp command-
ing an overwhelming top share* in the Japanese market, which is known around the
world for its strict evaluations. We also have number one share* in the global market.
AQUOS continues to be loved the world over.
The new Kameyama No. 2 Plant will employ the world’s largest eighth generation
(8G) glass substrates. Once this facility becomes operational, we will have additional pro-
duction capacity of large-size LCD panels, which will put Sharp ever closer to realizing its
dream of bringing the splendour of LCD TVs and the immersive sensation of large-screen
TVs to peoples across the globe.
AQUOS LCD TVs contribute to the creation of new lifestyles and raise the value of the
Sharp brand in all corners of the world.
