Belgian chemicals group Solvay will more than double its ultra-pure hydrogen peroxide capacity in Taiwan by the end of 2026 to support semiconductor production expansion, with plans to triple its electronics-grade peroxide business over five to seven years amid growing demand for advanced chip manufacturing.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Industrial, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Solvay's production boost in Taiwan opens a rare supply opportunity for advanced semiconductor chemical suppliers. You can target new chip fabs stocking high-purity materials that other chemical makers may struggle to serve fast enough.
