Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) is the world’s largest dedicated semiconductor foundry, founded in 1987 and headquartered in Hsinchu, Taiwan. The company manufactures advanced logic chips on 300 mm wafers for a broad range of applications, including consumer electronics, high‑performance computing, automotive, and industrial systems. In addition to extensive operations in Taiwan, TSMC is building out manufacturing capacity in the United States, Japan, and Europe.
TSMC’s scale and leading‑edge process technologies make it a key anchor customer and development partner for the chemical and materials sector. Its production relies on high‑purity process chemicals and gases for lithography, deposition, etch, clean, and CMP, as well as advanced packaging materials. Adoption of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography at advanced nodes drives specifications and demand for photoresists, underlayers, developers, strippers, and related materials, alongside electronic‑grade solvents, acids, slurries, and specialty gases. The company’s manufacturing footprint and sustainability programs also shape requirements for abatement, reclamation, and wastewater treatment across the semiconductor materials supply chain.
