CHIP PACKAGING MARKET OVERVIEW

The global chip packaging market size is forecasted to reach USD 66.67 billion by 2033 from USD 34.26 billion in 2024, growing at a steady CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

The market refers to the industry involved in the packaging and protection of semiconductor chips or integrated circuits (ICs) to ensure their functionality and reliability. Semiconductor chips are at the heart of various electronic devices, from smartphones and computers to automotive systems and industrial equipment. Chip packaging is a critical step in the semiconductor manufacturing process, as it provides the physical and electrical connections necessary for the chip to function within a given device.

The market for chip packaging has been steadily growing due to the increasing demand for smaller, faster, and more powerful electronic devices. The proliferation of smartphones, IoT devices, automotive electronics, and AI applications has driven the need for advanced packaging technologies.

COVID-19 IMPACT

COVID-19 Boosted Market Demand due to Increased Demand for Electronic Devices

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. 

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the market. As more people shifted to remote work, online education, and entertainment during lockdowns, there was a surge in demand for electronic devices such as laptops, tablets, and gaming consoles. This increased demand for semiconductor chips, including packaging solutions. The work-from-home trend led to a higher demand for data centres and networking equipment. Advanced packaging technologies were crucial in ensuring the performance and energy efficiency of these data centres. Companies and industries accelerated their digital transformation efforts during the pandemic, which increased the demand for chips for IoT devices, AI, and 5G technology, among others. Advanced packaging played a crucial role in enhancing the performance of these technologies.

LATEST TRENDS

Advanced Packaging Technologies to Fuel Market Growth

The demand for advanced chip packaging technologies such as 2.5D and 3D packaging was on the rise. These technologies enable higher performance and more compact designs for electronic devices. Heterogeneous integration, which involves combining different types of chips (e.g., CPUs, GPUs, memory, and sensors) in a single package, was gaining traction. This approach enables improved system-level performance and power efficiency. FOWLP was becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to reduce the overall size of packages while enhancing thermal performance and signal integrity. System-in-Package (SiP) Solutions were being used to integrate multiple chips, passive components, and even antennas into a single package, making it a key solution for compact, high-performance devices. The development and adoption of advanced materials, such as organic substrates and advanced interconnects, were helping improve the performance and reliability of chip packages. The rollout of 5G networks and the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) were driving demand for chip packages with enhanced connectivity, power efficiency, and integration capabilities.
