Semiconductor Cleanroom Market

The global semiconductor cleanroom market is expected to grow from USD 8.08 billion in 2025 to USD 11.88 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 8.0% between 2025 and 2030. The market is primarily driven by the rapid expansion of semiconductor fabrication facilities and the rising demand for advanced nodes, which require stricter contamination control and ultra-clean environments. The increasing investment in automation, robotics, and monitoring systems also fuels adoption, as fabs seek to enhance yield, reduce downtime, and ensure compliance with stringent ISO and SEMI standards. In addition, the growing complexity of semiconductor devices, such as 3D NAND and advanced logic chips, necessitates higher cleanroom classifications and specialized equipment.

Some prominent players in the semiconductor cleanroom market are Daifuku Co., Ltd. (Japan), MURATA MACHINERY, LTD. (Japan), Exyte Group (Germany), DuPont (US), and Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (US). Key growth strategies adopted by these players include partnerships, expansions, and product launches. For instance, in August 2025, Daifuku Co., Ltd. completed the construction of a new factory building, designated as Building M, at its core production base, Shiga Works, located in Shiga, Japan. This facility is part of a broader redevelopment project aimed at increasing production capacity and enhancing distribution efficiency at the site.

DAIFUKU CO., LTD.:

Daifuku Co., Ltd. holds a strong position in the semiconductor cleanroom market, leveraging decades of expertise in automated material handling systems (AMHS) and specialized cleanroom technologies. The company’s Cleanway system, widely adopted by leading semiconductor manufacturers, enables efficient, reliable conveyance of wafers, both for front-end and back-end processes. It is notable for minimizing contamination and vibration, which are critical factors in chip production. Unique technological solutions, such as nitrogen purging and dynamic routing, support manufacturers in scaling up operations and advancing miniaturization requirements, especially for chips requiring nanometer-level precision. The geographic spread, with 41% of total revenue from Asia, where chip fabrication is concentrated, further strengthens the company’s market relevance in key growth regions. The company has made strategic choices in developing its cleanroom automation business. It has invested consistently in R&D, maintaining expenditure of 1.7–1.8% of revenue in recent years, supporting advancements such as non-contact power supply and automated FOUP handling. These investments have allowed it to compete for highly technical contracts, such as complex, multi-cleanroom fabs with elevated throughput and reliability needs. Its expansion into regions outside Japan (over 67% of revenue generated internationally) and its diversified segment focus—including cleanroom automation—ensure resilience against regional demand shifts and industry cycles.

Exyte Group:

Exyte Group holds a dominant position in the semiconductor cleanroom market, backed by its deep expertise in designing and constructing high-tech wafer fabrication facilities. The company has delivered over four million square meters of cleanroom space, ensuring compliance with the ISO Class 1–5 standards for semiconductor manufacturing. Its turnkey solutions cover design, engineering, procurement, construction, and tool installation, offering clients end-to-end project execution. Its strong global supply chain and strategic partnerships with major semiconductor manufacturers allow it to provide scalable and customized cleanroom solutions that meet the evolving demands of leading logic, memory, and foundry players. The company mainly focuses on inorganic strategies such as acquisitions and expansions. To enhance its technological capabilities and service portfolio, it has pursued strategic acquisitions. For instance, in March 2024, Exyte acquired CollabraTech Solutions, a US-based company specializing in delivery systems and contract manufacturing services. CollabraTech Solutions focuses on designing, developing, and optimizing ultrahigh-purity critical process equipment for advanced semiconductor manufacturing.
