ASE enters the Science Park for the first time, the first phase of the Luzhu Factory is opened and the second phase breaks ground

ASE continues to expand its advanced packaging layout in Taiwan. Today, the "ASE Nanke Branch Road Bamboo Factory Opening and Phase II Groundbreaking Ceremony" was held at the Kaohsiung Park of the Southern Science Park. This is also the first time ASE has entered the science park.

The ceremony was attended by Hong Songjing, executive deputy general manager of the ASE headquarters, Zheng Xiurong, director of the Southern Science Park Administration, Wang Songfei, general manager of the ASE South Branch, and other industry and government representatives.

ASE explained that after the first and second phases of the Luzhu Factory are fully loaded, the overall investment scale is estimated to reach NT$100 billion, with annual revenue of approximately NT$80 billion. It is expected to create approximately 5,000 jobs, with a total floor area of ​​approximately 66,100 square meters, and will create another important advanced packaging base for ASE outside the core base of its Nanzi headquarters.

ASE is launching the first phase and advancing the second phase of the expansion simultaneously, extending the advanced packaging layout from Nanzi to Luzhu in the north, further connecting southern Taiwan's wafer manufacturing, packaging and testing, and upstream and downstream supply chains, shortening the distance of the industrial chain, improving synergy efficiency, and strengthening the overall competitiveness of the southern Taiwan semiconductor industry cluster.

Hong Songjing pointed out that the rapid development of AI and high-performance computing continues to drive the demand for advanced packaging technology and mass production capabilities for high-end chips. Advanced packaging has become an important key for the semiconductor industry to continuously improve computing performance. ASE continues to deploy production capacity, technology and talents in advance, and strengthens advanced packaging manufacturing capacity and supply chain coordination through mutual support from Nanzi and Luzhu bases.
