In the vast landscape of the global electronics industry, Asia's PCB (Printed Circuit Board) industry holds an irreplaceable core position, truly a dominant force driving the world. Since the early 21st century, the global PCB industry has gradually shifted its focus to Asia. Leveraging advantages in labor, resources, policies, and industrial clustering, Asia has attracted the concentration of global electronics manufacturing capacity. Particularly in Mainland China, supported by comprehensive industrial supporting facilities, a large labor pool, and proactive industrial policies, it surpassed Japan in 2006 to become the world's largest PCB production region, maintaining the top position globally in both output and output value ever since.
Currently, Asia accounts for over 80% of the global PCB market's output value. Among them, Mainland China's PCB output value accounted for 56.1% of the global total in 2024, and is expected to remain over half by 2029. Japan and South Korea also boast strong strength in the high-end PCB sector: Japanese enterprises such as Nippon Mektron hold key positions in IC substrates and high-end HDI (High-Density Interconnect) markets, while South Korean PCB companies demonstrate powerful competitiveness in areas like memory chip packaging substrates. Additionally, Southeast Asia's PCB industry is rising rapidly. Countries such as Thailand and Vietnam have attracted numerous PCB enterprises to invest and build factories with their low labor costs and preferential investment policies, gradually emerging as important global PCB production bases.
