Factors Stimulating Market Growth in Soft Chemical-Mechanical Polishing Pads
One major driver behind market growth is the surge in advanced logic chip fabrication, which requires reliable and high-performance planarization solutions to maintain quality and efficiency. As semiconductor devices become increasingly complex, the demand for innovative CMP pads that can meet these stringent manufacturing standards grows accordingly.
Another influential factor is the booming automotive semiconductor sector, propelled by the rise of electric and autonomous vehicles. This trend is complemented by expansion in AI-related hardware and photonic devices, all of which depend on precise planarization techniques made possible by soft CMP pads.

Leading Companies Shaping the Soft CMP Pad Industry
The market includes several dominant firms such as 3M Company, DuPont de Nemours Inc., Entegris Inc., Cabot Corporation, SKC Co. Ltd., Fujibo Holdings Inc., JSR Corporation, Hubei DingLong Chemical Co. Ltd., Beijing Grish Hitech Co. Ltd., Nitta Corporation, KPX Chemical Co. Ltd., Pureon AG, IV Technologies Inc., FNS TECH Co. Ltd., TWI Incorporated, Coorstek Inc., Resonac Corporation, KCTech Co. Ltd., Anji Microelectronics Co. Ltd., and Jiangsu Nata Opto-electronic Material Co. Ltd.
A recent notable development occurred in April 2025, when Enpulse Co. Ltd., a South Korean electronics company, acquired the CMP PAD Business Division from SKC Solmics Co., Ltd. This strategic acquisition aims to broaden Enpulse's semiconductor materials portfolio and strengthen its foothold in the semiconductor supply chain by integrating SKC Solmics' CMP pad technologies and industry expertise. SKC Solmics itself specializes in CMP pads and related materials for semiconductor processing.
