Some of the major players operating in the global photoresist are

The Dow Chemical Company, TOKYO OHKA KOGYO CO., LTD., Fujifilm Electronics Material Co., Ltd., E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, JSR Corporation, Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., and Sumitomo Chemicals Co., LTD. etc.

TechSci Research performed primary as well as exhaustive secondary research for this study. Initially, TechSci Research sourced a list of photoresist manufacturers globally. Subsequently, TechSci Research conducted primary research surveys with the identified companies. While interviewing, the respondents were also enquired about their competitors. Through this technique, TechSci Research was able to include manufacturers, distributors and dealers that could not be identified due to the limitations of secondary research. TechSci Research analysed type, application & regional presence of all major photoresist manufacturers across the globe.

TechSci Research calculated the market size for the global photoresist using a bottom-up approach, where manufacturers’ value data for type of (ARF Immersion Photoresist, ARF Dry Photoresist, KRF Photoresist and -Line & I-Line Photoresist), photoresist was recorded as well as forecast for the future years was made. TechSci Research sourced these values from industry experts and company representatives, and externally validated through analyzing historical sales data of respective manufacturers to arrive at the overall market size. Various secondary sources such as company annual reports, white papers, investor presentations and financial reports were also used by the TechSci Research.


Key Target Audience:

  • Global photoresist manufacturers
  • Research organizations and consulting companies
  • Organizations, associations and alliances related to photoresist
  • Government bodies such as regulating authorities and policy makers.
