Microsoft® Excel® file (.xls)The MEMS and sensor market is experiencing strong growth, driven by the proliferation of smart devices, IoT networks, and autonomous systems. Key devices — including accelerometers, gyroscopes, pressure sensors, and environmental sensors — require precise microfabrication and specialized process integration, making fab capabilities a critical differentiator. High-yield manufacturing, advanced process control, and vertical integration are essential to ensure device performance and reliability.
Regional incentives and government programs are further supporting fab expansion, with a focus on strengthening domestic supply chains and reducing reliance on global bottlenecks. As consumer electronics, automotive sensing, and industrial automation continue to advance, MEMS and sensor fabs are becoming critical infrastructure — enabling scalable, high-precision production for next-generation intelligent systems.
The MEMS & Sensors Fab Report provides strategic insights into the global semiconductor manufacturing landscape, focusing on front-end facilities specializing in MEMS and sensor technologies. The report covers over 400 facilities and production lines across 200 companies, ranging from R&D labs to large-scale volume fabs.
SEMI MEMS and Sensors Report (September 2026)
After years of double-digit growth during the pandemic, fab equipment spending declined in both 2024 and 2025. Spending is expected to rebound 26% to $13 billion in 2026, driven by demand from the automotive, industrial, AI, and IoT sectors. It is projected to grow another 44% in 2027 and 2% in 2028.
The industry is expected to bring 19 new volume facilities and production lines into operation from 2026 onward. These include both new sites and expansions of existing facilities.
The report lists 467 facilities and production lines for the 12-year period from 2018 through 2029.

The report is based primarily on a bottom-up analysis of individual fab projects. Data is compiled from industry sources, public filings, capital spending plans, investor presentations, production ramp schedules, and technology roadmaps. We leverage trusted global data sources, economic indicators, and WWSEMS benchmarking, applying best-educated estimates within our fab forecast model and continuously refining forecasts as new information becomes available.
