Covid and Ukrainian Crisis Impact:
- The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted the silicon wafers market. The semiconductor industry, which relies heavily on silicon wafers, saw a decline in demand due to global lockdowns and supply chain disruptions. This led to a contraction in semiconductor revenues, with some segments like automotive and industrial experiencing steep declines. However, segments like cloud computing and wireless communication saw increased demand, offsetting some of the losses.
- The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has also affected the silicon wafers market. The Russia-Ukraine war has led to supply chain disruptions and increased costs for raw materials and components. This has impacted the global electronics industry, including the production of silicon wafers, as key manufacturing hubs in Ukraine and Russia are affected. The crisis has further complicated the already strained global supply chains, affecting the availability and pricing of silicon wafers.
