Micron Breaks Ground on New HBM Advanced Packaging Facility in Singapore
January 07 2025 - 9:00PM
Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MU) broke ground today on a new
High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) advanced packaging facility adjacent to
the company’s current facilities in Singapore. Micron marked the
occasion with a ceremony attended by Gan Kim Yong, Deputy Prime
Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry of Singapore, Png
Cheong Boon, Chairman of the Singapore Economic Development Board,
Pee Beng Kong, Executive Vice President of the Singapore Economic
Development Board, and Tan Boon Khai, CEO of JTC Corporation.
The new HBM advanced packaging facility will be the first
facility of its kind in Singapore. Operations for the new facility
are scheduled to begin in 2026, with meaningful expansion of
Micron’s total advanced packaging capacity beginning in calendar
2027 to meet the demands of AI growth. The launch of this facility
will further strengthen Singapore’s local semiconductor ecosystem
and innovation.
“As AI adoption proliferates across industries, the demand for
advanced memory and storage solutions will continue to increase
robustly,” said Sanjay Mehrotra, president and CEO of Micron. “With
the continued support of the Singapore government, our investment
in this HBM advanced packaging facility strengthens our position to
address the expanding AI opportunities ahead.”
Micron’s HBM advanced packaging investment of approximately US
$7 billion (SG$9.5 billion) through the end of the decade and
beyond will initially create around 1,400 jobs, with site expansion
plans to reach an estimated 3,000 jobs in the future. These new
roles will include functions such as packaging development,
assembly and test operations.
Png Cheong Boon, Chairman of the Singapore Economic Development
Board, said, “We welcome this significant investment by Micron,
which reflects its confidence in Singapore’s competitiveness as a
critical node in the global semiconductor supply chain. This is
Singapore’s first high-bandwidth memory advanced packaging
facility, allowing us to contribute to global AI growth. It expands
Singapore’s partnership with Micron and further strengthens the
semiconductor ecosystem in Singapore.”
Micron’s future expansion plans in Singapore will also support
long-term manufacturing requirements for NAND.
Micron will maintain flexibility in managing the pace of
capacity ramps in both the HBM and NAND facilities to align with
market demand.
Micron’s current facility in Singapore is the first front-end
semiconductor fab in the world to be recognized as the Advanced
Fourth Industrial Revolution Lighthouse and Sustainability
Lighthouse by the World Economic Forum. The new HBM advanced
packaging facility will be built in alignment with Micron’s
sustainability commitments. It will feature technologies such as a
greenhouse gas abatement, water recycling and waste circularity
(reduce, reuse, recycle, recover). The new building will be
highly automated through AI-based intelligent solutions and
designed to meet the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
(LEED) certification requirements.
