BE Semiconductor contributes to the Innovation for Sustainability theme. With modern life increasingly taking place online, our society is demanding ever more computing power. Without improvements in the design or the production of chips, this demand cannot be met without a concurrent increase in power supply. Through its machines, BE Semiconductor enables electronic devices to become more energy efficient. The company has a leading position in the market for advanced packaging machines. A study from a leading consultancy found that such machines are key to lower power consumption of electronic devices. This is because they enable better integration between subcomponents of a chip package. Next to this, the machines enable smaller device sizes. BE Semiconductor also develops machines that are used to produce solar cells, lithium-ion batteries and LEDs. We therefore believe the company’s machines are an Innovation for Sustainability.
