The Gangshan fab has three independent buildings, Building A, B, and C, the fire only hit in the electrical room of the top floor of Building C, and according to the company the affected electrical room only supplies power to a small area. Therefore, the impact stemming from the fire is expected to be very limited.

At the plant Panjit International focuses on packaging services for small-signal devices and the development of technologies that make thinner and smaller packages.
