Strong demand and fierce competition is sometimes a pair of twin brothers. At present, consumer electronics, PC and peripherals, telecommunications, automobiles and household appliances and other areas of the PCB demand growth, mainland manufacturer PCB supply increasing. In the new factories or on the transformation of production equipment to improve production capacity at the same time, manufacturers are still hard to increase PCB layer, enhance competitiveness.

   China has about400-500PCB manufacturers, is expected to become the world's largest double-sided and multilayer PCB production base. On 2004, double-sided and multilayer PCB total production reached 52000000square meters, the mainland accounted for61% overall yield of PCB. China Printed Circuit Association estimates, due to manufacturers to expand production capacity to meet the telecommunications and automotive electronics field of strong demand, the local PCB supply will continue growing at 20% a year.

   Dongguan Shengyi electronic limited company recently built a80000 square meter plant, production capacity increased to 65000square meters. The company also plans to achieve 186000 square metre capacity. Similarly, Shanghai Exhibition China electron Limited company built second factories, a total investment of 81000000 US dollars, production capacity increased to 750000square meters.
