Penang\u2019s mature semiconductor ecosystem, strategic geographic location, and abundant talent pool provide an ideal environment for the R&D and production of compound semiconductor materials. The site also positions the company to deliver efficient and agile customer service with high responsiveness.<\/p>\n

The project will cover a total area of 40,000 square meters and is slated to begin construction within the year. Upon completion of Phase 1, the facility is expected to reach an annual production capacity of 240,000 8-inch silicon carbide wafers, significantly boosting JSG\u2019s global supply capabilities.

The facility perfectly aligns with our New Industrial Master Plan (NIMP) 2030, Chemical Industry Roadmap (CIR) 2030, and National Semiconductor Strategy (NSS) 2030, advancing Malaysia’s position in complex semiconductor production and high-value technological innovation. MIDA particularly values this investment as it addresses a critical gap in our semiconductor ecosystem – advanced wafer fabrication. This project will serve as a catalyst, attracting further investments in this crucial sector and strengthening Malaysia’s position as Asia’s premier advanced manufacturing hub. With SuperSiC’s commitment, we’re establishing a cornerstone for Malaysia’s technological future.\u201d<\/p>\n
