The semiconductor industry in South Korea is a major driver of the country’s economy, accounting for nearly 5.9% of the GDP. It can be said that the performance of Korea’s economy depends largely on whether its semiconductor industry is growing or declining. Furher, the nation is home to prominent memory chip manufacturers, such as SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics, which commanded 50% of the global memory chips market share in 2019. Thus, the development of this market will also spur the demand for cleanroom technology, and, in turn, for cleanroom consumables. This will foster the growth of the Korean cleanroom consumables market in the years to come.
Japan is one of the most advanced economies in Asia, primarily due to technological developments in the field of electronics, IT, and pharmaceuticals. In fact, it is one of the leading pharmaceutical manufacturers across the globe.

Therefore, the disease burden here is also high. This is providing significant growth opportunities to the nation’s pharmaceutical industry. And, it is expected to augment the demand for cleanroom technology, and consequently, cleanroom consumables, in Japan.
