Beef up Capacity for Advanced Industries

Together, the company expects that E&R’s Qiaotou New Plant, along with the Nantong Plant in mainland China (scheduled to open in July 2024), and the existing Yanchao Headquarters, will provide customers with greater production capacity. Accordingly, it would meet the future demand for equipment in AI, High-Performance Computing (HPC), automotive electronics, third-generation semiconductors, glass substrate, and other industries.

Commitment to Sustainability

Additionally, the construction of the new plant will adhere to smart and environmentally friendly practices. Among them include solar panels and water recycling, reflecting E&R’s dedication to sustainability and ESG principles. Also, this project is expected to significantly contribute to Kaohsiung semiconductor industry growth, aligning with the Southern Semiconductor S Corridor initiative promoted by Kaohsiung City Government and creating employment opportunities in the region.
