Sharp to boost LCD panel production capacity in August

Tokyo - Japanese electronics company Sharp Corp plans to increase production capacity for liquid crystal display panels by about 10 per cent at a plant in western Japan, the company said Thursday. Sharp decided to boost capacity to meet the rising global demand for thin television screens. The company intends to raise the monthly level of glass substrate production at the plant to 100,000 units at the Kameyama plant in Mie prefecture starting in August. In April, Sharp announced a plan to operate the Kameyama plant at full capacity and begin operations at its new factory in the western Japanese province of Osaka in October ahead of its initial target of next March.
