Description

This report is focused on technical ceramic materials market and supply-chain which includes SiC/ CVD SiC, AlN, Al2O3, Y2O3, and BN used in the production of components and assemblies for use in semiconductor process equipment. SiC is frequently used for both carriers (boats, gas injectors, and fabware) and components for OEMs where high temperature or specific thermal packages are required, while traditional Al2O3 and AlN ceramics are normally used for lower temperature / etch applications. The machines/tools manufacturers that use these components are referred to as OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers). This report targets ceramics used in the manufacture of semiconductors, only.

  • Includes in-depth information on the ceramics market dynamics and supply chain, including raw materials. Market shares, market forecast as well as raw material suppliers and capacity are included. Technical trends and requirements are also included along with a full section of supplier profiles.
  • Includes 3 Quarterly Updates, with updates on market trends and forecasts from the analyst

Press Release

The “Verdict’s Not in Yet” Mixed Results on Ceramics Parts Revenue as Technology Development Pushes Forward

San Diego, CA, July XX, 2025: TECHCET — the electronic materials advisory firm providing semiconductor materials supply chain information— announces the ceramics market is experiencing mixed results to date. Many are experiencing growth, while other areas are still awaiting the upturn. Geopolitics and tariffs are driving increased interest in localized supply, affording opportunity for small local suppliers to compete with MNEs.  In China, the market environment is largely positive with domestic chip fabricators motivated to buy from local suppliers. China’s parts fabricators are “having a great year,” regaining traction through local demand, while global OEMs and end-users alike are investing in regional sourcing and second-source strategies.

TECHCET currently forecasts a 4.9% increase in WW semiconductor ceramic parts revenues for 2025, bringing the total market to US $2.7 billion. As detailed in their newly released Critical Materials Report™ on Ceramics, the ceramics market is led by a 7% increase in CVD-SiC, followed by 5% growth in AlN, 4.8% in Al₂O₃, and other ceramics.

Ceramics Forecast - Techcet Ceramics market research report

Looking ahead, applications for advanced device chip manufacturing, especially advanced packaging, are driving demand for Silicon Carbide (SiC) consumption. Bulk SiC use is increasing for thermal processes like laser spike anneal and wafer temperature control. Its higher wear resistance and dimensional stability make SiC a great heat extraction pedestal (more favorable than AlN).

Bulk SiC is also used in advanced packaging chip bonding tools enabling multilayering needed for AI chip packaging. Contamination and particle levels requirements are extremely low making SiC a necessary component material. TECHCET sees continued growth in specialty coatings, like Yttria, that may dampen overall growth in replacement parts in the next 3-5 years. High-purity and plasma-resistant materials such as CVD-SiC, high-purity AlN, and yttria-based coatings are seeing greater usage to meet the requirements of advanced logic, 3D NAND, and other next-generation devices.
