World PCB production in 2014 estimated at $60.2 Billion
The world market for PCBs reached an estimated USD 60.2 billion in value in 2014, growing just 0.7 percent in real terms, according to IPC’s World PCB Production Report for the Year 2014.
Production growth in China, Thailand and Vietnam compensated for declining PCB production in most other regions.
“PCB production is an international business and the landscape continues to change,” says Sharon Starr, IPC director of market research. “Companies based in Taiwan, Japan and South Korea, are responsible for more than two-thirds of world PCB production. These and other companies around the world are powering the impressive growth of PCB production in southeast Asia.”
