Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Semiconductor CMP Polishing Pad market size was valued at US$ 1089 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 1737 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 7.0% during review period.

Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP), a key technology in the integrated circuit manufacturing process, uses both chemical erosion and mechanical force to planarize single-crystal silicon wafers and metal interconnect layers during processing. The semiconductor CMP polishing pad, also known as the chemical mechanical polishing pad, is a critical core material used in the chemical mechanical polishing process. It primarily serves to store the polishing slurry and distribute it evenly across the entire working area of the wafer, ensuring uniform polishing, removing residues generated during the polishing process, transmitting the mechanical energy required for material removal, and maintaining the necessary mechanical and chemical environment throughout the polishing process.

In the CMP process, the selection and use of the polishing pad are crucial for ensuring product quality and improving production efficiency. The appropriate polishing pad must be chosen based on various factors such as the type of silicon wafer material, the size and shape of the abrasive particles, the composition and application method of the polishing slurry, and other parameters. Strict control over these parameters during the polishing process is essential to achieve optimal polishing results.

The CMP polishing pad is an indispensable material in semiconductor manufacturing, and its performance directly affects the quality of the wafer surface. By selecting the appropriate polishing pad and strictly controlling the parameters during the polishing process, high-quality wafer surfaces can be ensured.

Currently, considering cost factors and the impact of silicon wafer size on the performance and efficiency of integrated circuits, the trend towards larger wafer sizes has become an inevitable and mainstream direction. Especially for 8-inch and 12-inch products, there is a possibility of moving towards 18-inch wafers in the future. However, as the size increases, so does the difficulty in producing corresponding CMP pads. As the trend towards larger downstream sizes becomes inevitable, to capture the market, it will be necessary to develop large-sized polishing pads; otherwise, one risks being phased out by the market. With the increasing expectations for superior performance of integrated circuits, the polishing performance of CMP pads must also improve. Therefore, more stringent requirements will be placed on their performance in the future.

From a consumer perspective, South Korea is currently the largest global consumer market, accounting for 23.52% of market revenue share in 2023, followed by mainland China and Taiwan, with shares of 21.71% and 19.02%, respectively. It is projected that China will experience the fastest growth over the next few years, with a CAGR of 9.30% from 2024 to 2030. In the coming years, China may reduce its import volume and rely more on domestic suppliers, although these companies may find it difficult to export. Given that the major consumption regions already have leading global enterprises, Europe might be the first region where Chinese companies can break through. Therefore, in the next few years, domestic Chinese enterprises' products will primarily focus on the domestic market. Additionally, due to current trade frictions and international political factors, this period could be the best opportunity for domestic CMP polishing pad manufacturers to capture the market, with national policy support expected to increase significantly in the coming years. Thus, the next few years present a significant localization opportunity for Chinese enterprises. We predict that Hubei Dinglong Holding Co., Ltd. might proactively lower product prices to aggressively capture market share.

In terms of producers, globally, key vendors of CMP polishing pads include DuPont, Entegris, Hubei Dinglong, Fujibo, and IVT Technologies, among others. In 2023, the top-tier vendors, mainly DuPont and Entegris, accounted for 76% of the market's revenue share; second-tier vendors, including Hubei Dinglong, Fujibo, and others, collectively held 15.84% of the revenue share. The CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) polishing pad industry is currently in a stage of continuous growth, primarily driven by the demand for higher performance and smaller node sizes in semiconductor manufacturing. CMP polishing pads play a critical role in ensuring the precise flatness of the semiconductor wafer surface, especially in advanced node technologies (such as 7nm and 5nm processes), which require even stricter polishing standards. As a foundational, pioneering, and strategic pillar industry crucial to the national economy and social development, the semiconductor industry receives strong support from national and local policies. Among these, the substantial need for localization of core process materials in the semiconductor industry has become a widely recognized consensus, presenting a favorable situation of rapid growth. The dependence on imported semiconductor materials in China is quite high, making the demand for import substitution urgent. Under the combined influence of market demand, technological advancements, and policy incentives, domestic semiconductor material enterprises are showing an accelerated growth trend, with vast potential for development.

Currently, none of the several marketized companies in China have obtained foreign certifications, thus they do not export. Since the main downstream enterprises are concentrated in Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and Europe and America, and given that, apart from Europe and South Korea, the other regions have significant market positions for their local CMP polishing pad enterprises, domestic Chinese enterprises' products will primarily target the domestic market in the next few years.
