The global Semiconductor Fabrication Materials market was USD 24.2 Billion in 2014 and is estimated to reach USD 30.49 Billion, at a CAGR of 4.1%, by 2020.
APAC dominated the global semiconductor fabrication market, followed by the Americas and Europe. For APAC region the key revenue generators were Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and China with Taiwan leading the market. Taiwan is also the fastest growing market in the region because of the presence of leading semiconductor foundries such as TSMC and UMC and an increased investment in the sector. For Americas, North America saw the largest consumer due to the presence of large semiconductor producers. For Europe, continuous R&D investment is expected in the forecasted period.
A rise in the demand for consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, digital cameras, tablet PCs, notebooks etc. is driving the market in a positive direction. Another driver has been the shift towards digital integrated circuits by the industry and a higher demand for micro-fabrication. Also, recently the significance of automotive electronics has been growing at a rapid rate leading to higher demand for semiconductors and thus higher demand for semiconductor fabrication materials.
