The World's Top 100 PCB Factories in China Account For More Than Half Of Global Output

Hayao Nakahara, president of N.TInformation, an authoritative research authority in the global PCB industry, released NTI-100 2020 Global Top 100 PCB rankings and industry trends. According to the survey report by Dr. Hayao Nakahara, A total of 128 manufacturers made the list in 2020 with revenues of more than $100 million, up to six from 122 in 2019, with output growing 10.3% from $62.342 billion to $68.789 billion.

Compared with last year, China had 56 (+4), Taiwan 25 (-2), Japan 21 (+3), South Korea 14 (+2), the United States 4 (unchanged), Europe 5 (unchanged), and Southeast Asia 3 (-1).

In particular, this year's report looked at the number of PCB manufacturers and production settlements worldwide. According to the report, there are about 2,100 PCB manufacturers with a total of 2,687 factories. Of these, 1,480 are concentrated in China, accounting for 55% of the global total.

And the data of the department of Obstetrics, Taiwan Institute of Industrial Research, Global PCB production in 2020 about 53.2% of production in China, the electronics industry in recent years under the influence of sino-us trade, the new crown outbreak, hasten the enterprise evaluation production base towards diversification layout, but for PCB industry, China PCB industry has gathered from the global supply chain and the huge market, its characteristic is not easy to quickly replicated in other countries, in the short term Mainland China remains the world's largest producer.

From this year's global one hundred lists, according to top 25 companies accounted for 59.3% of the total output value one hundred squads, concurrently Evergrande phenomenon continues to occur in PCB industry, corresponding to the application and development trend of PCB products terminal market, nearly 10 years from the past standardization and mass production of terminal applications such as household appliances, PC, mobile devices, along with the Internet of things (ot) 1 time The advent of high efficiency and diversity in electronic products has pushed PCBs into the niche, small and diverse terminal applications such as electric. Cars, wearable devices, etc., are constantly upgrading their technological capabilities and are driving waves of new investment plans and huge demand for technological upgrades as advanced technologies evolve.

Take the hottest carrier in the market as an example. Currently, the global carrier manufacturers are mainly from Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea. The main leading manufacturers are Xinxing,.ibiden, SEMCO, NANdian, Jingsuo, Shinko. Simmtech, these manufacturers are all in the top 25 list. To maintain the leading edge, the enterprises in the front class rely on the trend of new product design, precise and continuous investment in advanced technology, and play to the advantages of production layout.

Last year, Apple just launched the iphone12 in the traditional Q3 peak season to create a wave of goods, zhen ting technology holdings, huatong, taijun, dongshan precision, Nippon Mektron, Fujikura, and other suppliers to taste sweet. With the outbreak of remote work and education, housing economic opportunities have driven the demand for laptops, tablets, and game consoles, making related motherboard manufacturers such as Hanzbode, Jinxiang Electronics, and Jianding Technology also shine last year.

In the automotive electronics sector, although the global epidemic and chip shortage once made the global car market in 2020 gloomy, with the clear trend of electric vehicle, self-driving car market trend, related application manufacturers Jingpeng, Yaohua, Dingying Electronics, Meiko, CMK, Eaton Electronics, Kyoden,Shirai Denshi, and other manufacturers have clearly felt the car market temperature, and expect the global automotive chip supply and demand imbalance to ease as soon as possible.
