Market share three major types of special rigid copper cladlaminate manufacturers (%)

 

From the above chart, it can be seen that Chinese mainland manufacturers lead the global market share in copper-clad laminates (CCL). According to Prismark, the top ten global CCL manufacturers by market share in 2023 were Kingboard (14.6%), Shengyi Technology (14.0%), Taiwan Union Technology Corporation (TUC, 10.3%), Nan Ya Plastics (9.1%), Panasonic (6.7%), ITEQ (6.3%), Taiyo Yuden (4.0%), Doosan Corporation (3.6%), Goldenmax International Group (3.3%), and Nan Ya New Material (3.2%). Among the top ten global manufacturers, Chinese mainland companies—Shengyi Technology, Goldenmax, and Nan Ya New Material—collectively accounted for 20.5% of the global market share. Shengyi Technology, as the world's second-largest CCL manufacturer, holds a leading position in global market share.

 

However, global demand for high-end CCL products remains to be further developed, with Kingboard and Shengyi Technology leading the high-end segment. The three major categories of specialty rigid CCLs include:

 

CCL for IC packaging substrates

 

CCL for RF/microwave circuits

 

CCL for high-speed digital circuits

 

According to Prismark, among the top ten manufacturers in the global specialty rigid CCL market in 2023, Taiwanese companies—TUC, ITEQ, and Taiyo Yuden—collectively held 43.0% of the market share, while Japanese manufacturers—Panasonic, Resonac, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical (MGC), and AGC—held 23.9%, indicating that Taiwanese and Japanese manufacturers dominate the high-end CCL sector.
