(Central News Agency Reporter Tseng Yun-ting, Taipei, 12th) The InvesTaiwan office today approved five companies to expand their investments in Taiwan, with a total investment amount of approximately NT$5.05 billion. Among them, Hung Chieh Technology, a provider of semiconductor component cleaning and thermal spraying technology, following its application for the Action Plan for Welcoming Overseas Taiwanese Businesses to Return to Invest in Taiwan in 2021, is boosting its investment by NT$2.38 billion to expand capacity in Hsinchu and Tainan in response to the continuous growth of the advanced semiconductor manufacturing market. This makes it the largest among the approved investment projects.
The Department of Investment Promotion of the Ministry of Economic Affairs stated in a press release today that the approved cases include Hung Chieh Technology under the "Action Plan for Welcoming Overseas Taiwanese Businesses to Return to Invest in Taiwan," as well as Tsai Pang Chieh, Nan Yi Steel Structure, Hung Yang Foods, and Everwide Chemical under the "Action Plan for Accelerated Investment by SMEs."
Among them, Hung Chieh Technology is a subsidiary of Taiwan Specialty Chemicals and an affiliated enterprise of the Sino-American Silicon Products Group. It specializes in next-generation semiconductor component cleaning and thermal spraying technology, providing integrated services such as precision machining, surface treatment, and advanced cleaning. To meet the growing demand in the advanced semiconductor manufacturing market, Hung Chieh Technology plans to build a second plant in Hsinchu and expand its Tainan facility, investing approximately NT$2.38 billion, which is expected to create 331 domestic job opportunities.
The Ministry of Economic Affairs stated that Hung Chieh Technology's new plants will introduce AI technology and integrate it with existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to enhance production management and operational efficiency. Simultaneously, it will install solar power generation facilities and promote greenhouse gas inventories to implement green manufacturing and sustainable operations. With the completion of the capacity expansion, it is expected to further elevate its service capabilities for advanced processes and strengthen domestic self-reliance and maintenance service capabilities for semiconductor equipment materials.
In addition, Tsai Pang Chieh, which specializes in surface treatment, component regeneration, and precision cleaning services for semiconductor parts, will invest approximately NT$130 million to expand its production lines in Rende District, Tainan City. It will adopt AI to analyze production information to improve product yield and management efficiency, and install a solar photovoltaic system, expecting to create 10 new domestic jobs.
According to the MOEA, steel structure processor Nan Yi Steel Structure will invest about NT$810 million in the Qigu Technology Industrial Park in Tainan to build a smart steel structure factory. It will introduce automated equipment, high-energy laser welding processes, and AI image recognition technology to improve production efficiency and quality control capabilities, expected to add 40 jobs.
In the food industry, plant-based protein food producer Hung Yang Foods will invest approximately NT$550 million to build a smart factory in Sihu Township, Yunlin County, to produce plant-based protein frozen prepared foods and fresh food products. The new plant will incorporate sensing equipment, the Internet of Things (IoT), and data analysis systems, and build solar and wind power generation equipment to promote low-carbon manufacturing.
Precision chemical materials manufacturer Everwide Chemical plans to invest about NT$1.18 billion to build a new plant in the Douliu Industrial Park, Yunlin County, to develop high value-added adhesive material products. The new plant will introduce automated equipment, smart logistics, and a digital management platform to meet the demands of the high-end electronic materials market and enhance supply chain resilience.
MOEA statistics show that as of now, the "Three Major Programs for Investing in Taiwan" have attracted 1,767 companies to invest approximately NT$2.6874 trillion, estimated to create 166,864 domestic job opportunities. Among them, the Action Plan for Welcoming Overseas Taiwanese Businesses has attracted 353 companies to invest about NT$1.4609 trillion, and the SME accelerated investment plan has attracted 1,194 companies to invest about NT$611.9 billion, with another 24 companies waiting for review.
