Technavio Announces Top Six Vendors in the Semiconductor Packaging and Test Market in China from 2015 to 2019


Technavio has announced the top six leading vendors in their recent semiconductor packaging and test market in China report. This research report also lists 10 other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.

Competitive vendor landscape

This report by Technavio establishes that the semiconductor equipment industry is an essential part of the semiconductor device making industry. The device making companies invest one-fifth of the revenue generated from the sales of new equipment. The market also faces a technological gap between advanced foreign and Chinese equipment.

The packaging and test equipment market is a part of the total semiconductor equipment industry. Thus, factors that affect the semiconductor equipment industry in a way affect the packaging and test market.

According to Asif Gani, a lead research analyst at Technavio for semiconductor equipment, "Rising costs of packaging and test equipment make leading chip manufacturers sell off their packaging and test facilities, and focus more on partnerships and mergers in order to outsource their packaging and testing of chips. Companies such as ASE and Intel (News - Alert) are investing or acquiring considerable shares in facilities for leading packing and test manufacturers, thereby reducing total costs."
