Now the leadership holds Taiwan with 23%, followed by China (21%), South Korea (19%), Japan (13%), USA (10%) and Europe (8%).
In 2024, China produced 8.85 million silica plate a month – 15% before a year. Next year, this indicator will exceed 10 million plates. The growth was achieved by the construction of 18 new factories, including the latest launch in the 12 -inch factory Huahong Semiconductor.
Although the United States consume 57% of all chips in the world, they produce only 10% of the total and depends on materials from Asia.
Meanwhile, Japan and Europe are mainly involved in domestic demand. Other players such as Malaysia and Singapore provide approximately 6% global power.
Although China leads to volume, its technological base is still lower than the west. The United States continues to restrictions on advanced equipment exports and Beijing investigates billions of investments in the development of domestic technologies.
