From the overall global situation, according to NT Information statistics, there are approximately 2,800 PCB factories in the world, of which 116 are valued at more than 100 million US dollars, mainly located in the United States, Japan, South Korea, China and Taiwan.

Among them, the Asia-Pacific region is an important participant. According to research on the printed circuit board market, the Asia-Pacific region accounts for 90% of the market share, with a compound annual growth rate of 4-6% from 2020 to 2024. The top four in Asia that account for 90% of the PCB output value are China, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea.

In the past ten years, China's PCB manufacturing industry has developed rapidly with its advantages in labor, resources, policies, and industrial agglomeration, and has now become the world's largest PCB production base.

Since the end of the 1990s, the PCB output value of mainland China has grown rapidly, and the continuous introduction of foreign advanced technology and equipment has become the fastest growing area of the global PCB output value. According to Prismark data, in the past 10 years, the output value of PCB in mainland China has increased from US$15.037 billion in 2008 to US$29.732 billion in 2017, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.87% (global CAGR of 2.21%), which is significantly higher than the global growth rate. .

In 2006, Mainland China surpassed Japan for the first time and became the world's largest PCB production base. By 2017, the output value of printed circuit boards in mainland China has exceeded half of the world's. From 2015 to 2019, the average annual compound growth rate of PCB output value in mainland China reached 5.61%, which is significantly higher than the global average growth rate. It is expected to be in 2021 The annual output value can reach 37.052 billion U.S. dollars. With the development of China's 5G, cloud computing, Internet of Things and other industries in 2021, China's printed circuit board industry is moving towards a higher level.

Hayao Nakahara, president of NTInformation, a global PCB industry research authority, announced the NTI-100 2020 global top 100 PCB rankings and industry trends (NTI-100: annual turnover exceeds 100 million US dollars). According to his survey report, 2020 A total of 128 manufacturers have entered the list with revenues of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, an increase of 6 from 122 in 2019. The output value has grown from 62.342 billion U.S. dollars to 68.789 billion U.S. dollars, with a growth rate of 10.3%. Compared with the number of companies in each region, the number of companies on the list compared with last year is 56 in Mainland China (+4), 25 in Taiwan (-2), 21 in Japan (+3), 14 in South Korea (+2), and 4 in the United States.
