Back Semiconductor fab logistics - solutions built for lasting success

The construction of semiconductor fabrication plants presents unique challenges. Work with a logistics provider who understands the stakes and brings reliability to your operations.

A Semicon surge

Following the disruption of semiconductor supply chains during the COVID-19 pandemic, governments and companies have taken concerted action to increase their resilience. Governments from the US, China, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and Europe have announced incentives exceeding $300 billion to establish hundreds of new fabs, assembly test and packaging (ATP) sites and develop their national semiconductor industries.

The more than $2.5 trillion in private-sector investment earmarked for wafer fabrication between 2024 and 2032 is driving a massive construction initiative for fabs and ATP sites globally. Consequently, managing construction logistics with professionals experienced in industry-specific projects has become even more essential.

Kuehne+Nagel’s Project Logistics team offers flexible strategies to meet the speed and demands of the semicon industry. Using effective communication and in-house IT solutions, specialists ensure stakeholders have the visibility needed to deliver equipment and materials safely, on schedule and on budget.

Construction logistics built on solid foundations

With the complexities of capital initiatives, oversized cargo, remote locations, tight schedules, and challenging budgets, we know the importance of complying with health, safety and environmental (HSE) standards. Safely transport your heavy and oversized cargo to remote destinations with a global network that supports every stage of your project.

We use specialised software, One Global System (OGS), to manage your entire supply chain, meet deadlines and stay within budget. OGS supports your purchase order processes, vendor management, pickup, packing, consolidation and final delivery.

With a global presence, we effectively coordinate with site project management to support semiconductor construction schedules. Using predictive analytics, automation and intelligent localisation processes, we advance a more efficient and sustainable supply chain.

Increase your competitive edge with our engineering expertise, chartering solutions, risk assessment, and project management skills to ensure safe and smooth operations.
