TAIPEI, TAIWAN – The increased demand for copper-clad laminate (CCL) has allowed Taiwan Union Technology (TUC) to return to its capacity expansion project at the Zhongshan, China plant.
 
The company initially decided to halt construction for one year, beginning in January, as the weak economy caused a drop in CCL demand.
 
Two CCL production lines are planned, providing a monthly capacity of 600,000 units. Trial production is scheduled for December, reports DigiTimes.
 
According to the company, it will not raise prices. Instead, it will focus on regaining orders lost during the price wars of last year.
 
Consolidated revenues for the second half of 2009 are forecast at NT$600 million (US$18.54 million), while the utilization rate is expected to return to 80%.
