Taiwan Industry Reports
Industry Type:   Title:  

 
Copper Clad Laminate Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#42073Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Taiwan’s copper clad laminate manufacturing industry is expected to see stable growth in the first half of the year, supported by rising demand for AI servers, 800G high-end switches, AI PCs, AI smartphones, and low-orbit satellites. The gradual ramp-up of production capacity at Taiwanese factories in Thailand also contributes to the positive outlook. However, the industry remains cautious due to the renewed tariff war initiated by U.S. President Trump, which poses risks to the supply chains of electric vehicles and servers.
Discrete Devices Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#42063Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
The Chinese government continues to expand its trade-in initiatives for electric vehicles and consumer electronics. The initiative helps sustain stable demand from local customers and supporting rising lead frame copper sheet prices, which in turn enhance the operating profit structure of Taiwanese lead frame manufacturers. However, the challenges remain. Weak demand in the European and American automotive and industrial sectors, combined with the Trump administration’s continued expansion of tariff measures, may further weigh on Taiwan’s auto parts exports to the U.S. As a result, the discrete devices manufacturing industry in Taiwan is expected to enter a period of contraction in the second quarter of 2025.
Inductor Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#41861Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Driven by the continued expansion of AI applications, steady growth in automotive demand, and the stabilization of network communication needs—alongside anticipated gains from Taiwanese manufacturers’ investments in emerging application fields—Taiwan’s inductor manufacturing industry is projected to achieve modest growth in the first half of 2025. However, a new round of tariff measures initiated by the United States has introduced fresh uncertainties. As end-device manufacturers navigate potential supply chain shifts, component suppliers may face mounting pressure to absorb additional costs. Whether these developments will ultimately affect end-market demand remains a key area of market attention.
Industrial Computer Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#42098Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
The accelerating push for corporate digital transformation is expected to support the gradual recovery of demand in the smart medical sector, while growing needs from industrial automation and the retail industry are poised to enhance overall order performance. Moreover, the adoption of new technologies is anticipated to further stimulate market demand and provide fresh momentum for future business growth. As a result, the sales value of Taiwan’s industrial computer manufacturing industry is projected to rise in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, reflecting a continued upward trend in industry prosperity.
Information Software Services
2025-AprDoc　#42055Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Taiwan's information software services industry is expected to operate in a favorable business environment, supported by the ongoing emergence of AI agent-related opportunities. Industry participants are also actively expanding their presence in cloud platforms, cybersecurity solutions, and the development of cloud storage server systems. Against this backdrop, the sector is projected to maintain a steady growth trajectory, driven by both technological innovation and sustained market demand.
Mobile Phones Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#41928Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Although Taiwanese brand manufacturers are gradually exiting the mobile phone market and intensified OEM competition continues to compress profit margins—limiting the industry's growth momentum—active investment by international brands in developing new AI and ultra-thin models, along with enhanced generative AI features aimed at improving user experience, is expected to stimulate replacement demand. This will support the sustained growth of the global mobile phone market and benefit OEM manufacturers’ operational performance. As a result, the outlook for Taiwan’s mobile phone manufacturing industry is expected to remain stable in the first half of 2025.
Notebook Computers
2025-AprDoc　#42101Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
In the second quarter of 2025, the ongoing NEXT GIGA education tender in Japan, the upgrade of gaming models, and the rising demand for commercial device replacements are expected to drive overall notebook shipment performance. Additionally, Taiwanese brands and OEMs are diversifying into other business sectors, which will contribute to sustained operational growth. As a result, the Taiwanese notebook computer manufacturing industry is forecast to experience continued growth in the second quarter of 2025.
Radiation and Electromedical Equipment Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#42061Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Taiwanese blood glucose meter manufacturers have made notable progress in penetrating emerging markets, while demand for components and accessories for ophthalmic instruments in China is also gaining momentum.With sales performance improving both at home and abroad, the industry is projected to see modest growth in the first half of 2025.
TFT-LCD Panel Components Manufacturing Industry
2025-AprDoc　#42055Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Global LCD panel output value is projected to rise modestly by 2.54% in 2025, likely driving an uptick in demand for TFT-LCD panel components. In response, Taiwan’s component manufacturers are accelerating transformation efforts and expanding into niche markets. For instance, Optimax Technology Corporation anticipates that automotive polarizers will account for over 80% of its revenue in 2025. Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation is investing in the expansion of its optical component capacity, while Cheng Mei Materials Technology Corporation is actively increasing the revenue contribution of circular polarizers for both automotive and OLED applications. Supported by this gradual demand recovery, product portfolio optimization, and rising value-added content, the industry is expected to experience a positive growth trend in 2025.
Game Consoles and Components Manufacturing
2025-AprDoc　#42238Industry Report (condensed version)US$300
Despite the impact of ongoing uncertainty surrounding U.S. tariff policy on the global economy and consumer market, the forthcoming launch of Nintendo's Switch 2 and sustained demand for stocking new hardware are expected to boost game console assembly orders and related component shipments. Moreover, the global console market experienced notable weakness during the same period in 2024, creating a low comparison base. As a result, the economic performance of the game console and component manufacturing industry is projected to improve in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period a year earlier.
