Market Dynamics

Drivers

Rise in Need for Wafer Fabrication

Semiconductor wafer manufacturing is a method that consists of several sequential processes for the manufacture of electrical circuits or semiconductor wafers. Wafer manufacturing helps in the production of components with the necessary electrical structures. The wafer manufacturing process is conducted for the processing of raw wafers to finished chips (discrete or integrated circuits). Factors such as high demand for silicon wafers and equipment footprint in the manufacturing process will support the global study of the manufacturing of semiconductor wafers and their equipment market in the future. Also, advances in wafer technologies that have led to denser packaging of devices such as MEMS (micro-electromechanical system) and transistors are expected to drive the need for wafer manufacturing processes globally in the semiconductor industry.

Increase in Investment in Wafer Fabrication Equipment and Materials

There is an increase in the trend toward rising investment in wafer manufacturing equipment and materials, which offers lucrative growth opportunities for the semiconductor industry. Governments in various developing regions, such as South Korea, Taiwan, and China, are creating regulations to enhance the semiconductor industry by implementing strategies such as market expansion, acquisition, and product launches, among others.

Restraints

Increase in Cost of Wafer Fabrication

Wafer grinding is a semiconductor chip manufacturing phase during which the wafer thickness is reduced to allow the stacking and high-density packaging of integrated circuits. It is the method of grinding the wafer of the wafer to the proper wafer thickness before assembly. It's often referred to as wafer thinning. As wafer grinding tapes protect the wafer surface from contamination, there is an increasing shift from non-UV tapes to UV curable tapes. Also, these tapes incur additional costs as to non-UV wafer grinding tapes. This is supposed to contribute to the total cost of production of wafers by making it marginally costly. This rise in the change from non-UV to UV curable wafer grinding tapes raises the overall cost of wafer production, which is expected to impede the wafer grinding tape market to a certain extent.

Covid-19 impact on Global and China Wafer Grinding Tapes Market

With the advent of coronavirus majority of industries have stopped their business operations due to social distancing norms and the supply chain has also been adversely affected since the raw materials are unable to reach the manufacturing units causing disturbances. However, the post-COVID-19 impact the demand for wafer back grinding tapes is expected to increase due to an increase in the need for semiconductor wafer manufacturing for photonic and electrical circuit development. These are expected to be key factors driving the global back melting tape market during the forecast period.
