Total investment of $600 million into the world's largest producer of LED panel in Taiwan

Days ago, the latest data of international semiconductor equipment and Materials Industry Association released in 2010, as the extension of LED (light emitting diode) panel panel capacity, our country Taiwan area enterprise investment in plant and equipment has reached $600 million. So far, the scale of China's LED panel industry in Taiwan for the first time more than South Korea, Japan, becoming the world's largest producer of LED panel.

Display Search data predicts that by 2012, LED backlight LCD TV will account for 50% of all flat-panel TV share. The huge market scale is the main reason for the enterprises in Taiwan to increase the investment of LED panel. In addition, Taiwan Chimei Innolux and several large panel merger makes these leading enterprises in the whole industrial scale rapid expansion, huge capacity has attracted large orders for SONY, Toshiba, DELL. Under the premise of a substantial increase in manufacturing and assembly orders, the company is bound to expand production capacity, overweight investment in upstream mainstream products. Some analysts believe that the expansion of the scale of the industry to ensure that the quality of the LED panel, which shows that the development of China's Taiwan panel enterprises entered a new stage.

Digital Chief Consultant China brand communication research Jiang Peifeng do not agree with this view, he believes that this growth is normal, expand the industrial scale enterprises in Taiwan area of our country is a strategic growth, does not mean that the enterprise of our country Taiwan area has more than on the strength of enterprises in Korea and japan. Japan and South Korea is the innovator of the panel technology, and China's Taiwan region to create a well-known enterprises, investment in factories and equipment more than Japan and South Korea is very normal. But now the gap between enterprises in China's Taiwan region is the impact of technology on the brand has not been large enterprises in Japan and South korea.

In addition, the industry also warned that China's Taiwan panel enterprises also showed a small and miscellaneous state. For small enterprises are now facing two major problems, one is the yield can be increased, so far, the LED panel using small electronic devices, mobile phone and digital media player and so on, each big enterprise technology is relatively mature, but the LED panels yield used in low rate on tv. LED industry is a technology intensive, capital intensive industries, small and miscellaneous enterprises is not only prone to duplication of investment, and it is difficult to form a joint force; another panel also entered the era of brand, only low prices of small and medium-sized enterprises, not by the acquisition of large enterprises is facing out of risk.
