Fujifilm to build semiconductor materials plant in India to support chip supply chain

May 8, 2025 /SemiMedia/ — Fujifilm plans to establish a semiconductor materials plant in Gujarat, India, as part of a broader push to support India’s domestic chip supply chain and reduce dependence on Chinese suppliers.

Construction is scheduled to begin as early as 2026, with operations targeted around 2028. The facility will initially produce cleaning chemicals used in chip fabrication, with potential expansion into other materials and solutions.

Fujifilm will first supply Tata Electronics, a semiconductor unit of Tata Group that is building a mature-node automotive chip foundry in partnership with Taiwan’s Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp (PSMC). The foundry is also located in Gujarat and is expected to begin operations in 2026.

India is investing heavily to localize chip manufacturing, including raw materials, in a bid to enhance economic security. Currently, many key materials are sourced from China. Fujifilm’s investment supports India’s strategic shift and positions the company to expand in one of the world's fastest-growing semiconductor markets.

Until the plant comes online, Fujifilm will serve Indian customers from existing facilities in the U.S., Europe, and other parts of Asia. The company is also considering exports to regional markets such as Singapore.

Japanese firms are increasingly active in India’s semiconductor push. Tokyo Electron plans to open a local facility this year focused on equipment design and software.

Sumitomo Chemical is exploring supply of cleaning agents, and Renesas Electronics has begun building an assembly and test facility in Gujarat through a joint venture.
