Mainland China’s Incandescent-ban Program Affects Taiwan’s LED Maufactures’ Actions

As Mainland China starts to implement a plan to phase out incandescent lamps in four to five years since October, Taiwan’s LED makers have taken actions to seize this opportunities.

Epistar and Everlight have entered into alliance with Konka Group to open an epitaxy-wafer venture in the mainland.

Everlight, is also promoting own-brand LED lighting in the mainland.

LiteOn is setting up production lines in Changzhou, which integrate front-end, mid-end and back-end manufacturing capability.

Genesis and Ledtech have separately signed agreementswith Potevio Co., Ltd. of the mainland on LED lighting cooperation.

General manger of Philips Lumileds Taiwan, Z.J. Wang, noted that using LED as a daily lighting is an irresistible trend and Taiwan is in a more advantageous position than other LED powers in the world in entering the mainland market with the same language with the mainland, not to mention its leading-edge technologies and well trained engineers.

Despite of the current oversupply in the market, Taiwan’s manufacturers are not slowing down their expansion projects in the mainland, as they expect the market will rebound sometime in the second quarter of 2012.
 
Similar bans at other economic powers, including European Union, Canada, Australia and Japan, will bring Taiwan’s manufacturers additional opportunities,according to Taiwan-based market research organization ,Photonic Industry & Technology Development Association (PIDA).
