SUPERSIC MALAYSIA, a subsidiary of Zhejiang Jingsheng Mechanical & Electrical Co., Ltd. has officially broken ground for its new manufacturing facility in Penang, marking a significant step in the group’s global expansion strategy and reflecting the growing role of Chinese semiconductor enterprises in the global supply chain.
The project will cover a total area of 40,000 square meters and is slated to begin construction within the year. Upon completion of Phase 1, the facility is expected to reach an annual production capacity of 240,000 8-inch silicon carbide wafers, significantly boosting JSG’s global supply capabilities. The project is committed to principles of sustainable development, emphasising environmental stewardship and employee well-being as part of its corporate social responsibility.
Dr. Cao Jianwei, Chairman of JSG, said: “JSG’s 19 years of continuous innovation and growth rely on the strong support of global partners. The Penang facility represents a pivotal milestone in JSG’s international strategy, enabling the launch of SuperSiC’s localised production layout in the Southeast Asian market and the start of a new chapter of deep collaboration with the local semiconductor industry ecosystem in Malaysia. This is not only a strengthening of the global supply chain, but also a practical implementation of the commitment to be close to customers and responsive to their needs.”
Looking ahead, JSG will remain committed to its mission: “To build a world-leading enterprise in semiconductor materials and equipment, and to promote green, intelligent high-tech manufacturing.” With the Penang facility as a new strategic anchor, JSG will continue expanding its global network, accelerating supply chain development. Driven by technological innovation, the company will focus on breakthroughs in Advanced Materials and Advanced Equipment, foster collaborative ecosystems with local partners, and contribute to the sustainable growth of the global semiconductor industry.
