Report: AT&S Largest HDI Plant in China

Published: 07 July 2009

SHANGHAI – The AT&S facility in Shanghai has been named the largest HDI site in China by a China Printed Circuit Association (CPCA) industry statistical report for 2008. 
 
The report measures both PCB output and sales revenue. The plant produced more than 550,000 square meters of HDI PCB last year.

In 2008, the overall HDI area output in China fell by 1.21% year-over-year, and revenues dropped 2.33%. AT&S gained market share by increasing output by more than 15% and raising revenues.  
 
The Shanghai operation is focused on high volume, laser-drilled HDI PCBs for mobile devices such as cell phones and digital cameras. Recently, HDI demand has also grown in the automotive sector, increasing the market size for these products.

With a total investment of about $500 million in the Shanghai facilities, AT&S is the largest Austrian-based, industrial investor in China. The Shanghai plant has a total of 100,000 square meters of manufacturing space and is the largest AT&S production site. 
 
The CPCA ranked AT&S second in 2007 and fourth in 2006.
