“DesiKhan is the first company in the world to develop a desiccant for automotive lamps. Our goal is to grow into a global company by continuing technology development and quality control based on this experience and pride.”
The chairman of DesiKhan, Kim Jong-hyup, has always emphasized the importance of globalization. The reason he handed over Dongdo Newtech to his son and came out with only one dehumidifying agent to establish DesiKhan was based on his belief that he would develop a dehumidifier that would work in the global market and bring it abroad.
He expressed his aspirations, saying that he wants to develop DesiKhan as a global headlamp desiccant manufacturer. From now on, he will focus on developing his ability to enter the global market.
After establishing DesiKhan in 2015, he was only the first step in developing and replacing a desiccant for automobile lamps that could replace the anti-fog coating and dehumidifier imported from Japan. Currently, it is supplying to more than 80 finished cars produced by domestic and foreign automakers such as Hyundai/Kia Motors (Korea), Mercedes (Germany), GM (USA), and Gili Motors (China).
Mr. Kim said, “The desiccant for car lamps controls the humidity inside the lamps, maximizes the lamp performance, and extends the life of the lamps.”
The industrial desiccant produced by DesiKhan is a product that removes moisture and rust generated when storing or transporting various products. It supplies to various fields such as LG Electronics, Samsung Heavy Industries, Hyundai Glovis, and Hansol Paper.
He founded DesiKhan in 2015, and began to develop a dedicated desiccant suitable for the internal characteristics of the lamp. The first mass-produced one was released in 2016. This product has been supplied to lamp and automobile companies in 8 countries around the world.
He said, “The background behind DesiKhan's success with the desiccant for automotive lamps is thanks to constant technological development and quality control. We made more than 70 technical meetings with our customers for more than two years and tested more than 350 times, and we made more than 36,000 samples. We are still conducting actual vehicle tests to verify and improve performance.
In fact, since 2018, DesiKhan conducted product durability and performance verification under extreme conditions in Guangzhou and Shenyang in China, Florida and Nevada in the US. This year, monitoring is being conducted by applying to 25 taxis.
Mr. Kim emphasized that the modern society is a competitive one that must be constantly challenged, and that if we neglect technology development, we can only be eliminated. Emphasizing investment in R&D, he said, "To improve product performance and efficiency, we plan to invest 8% of our total sales in R&D this year. It increased 1.8 percentage points from last year."
