Applied Materials is the leader in materials engineering solutions used to produce virtually every new chip and advanced display in the world. Our expertise in modifying materials at atomic levels and on an industrial scale enables customers to transform possibilities into reality. Our innovations make possible™ the technology shaping the future.

Applied Materials invested in Taiwan at the end of 1989 and then the Applied Materials Taiwan (AMT) was established in 1993. With Applied’s strong expertise in materials engineering, AMT has dedicated three decades to providing differentiated, valuable and sustainable solutions to overcome customers’ high-value problems and continuously support their production requirements through its strategy of technology localization and world-class engineering services. AMT helps accelerate customer’s growth in Taiwan semiconductor and display industries, and has since expanded its business operations to multiple locations across Taiwan including the establishment of two Display Manufacturing Centers and R&D Labs in Tainan, an Asia Continental Distribution Center in Taoyuan, a Global Technical Learning Center as well as sales and service offices in Hsinchu, Linkou, Taichung and Tainan. Applied Materials has highly valued Taiwan's strategic position around the world business. In 2001, AMT established its Asia Continental Distribution Center in Taoyuan to revolutionize its customer services and offer delivery service of critical spare parts for all Applied’s equipment within Asia, including Taiwan, Japan, China, Korea, India, Malaysia, Philippines and Singapore. In 2010, AMT opened the expanded Display Manufacturing Center in Tainan Science Park and focuses on building large size display systems. Three years later, AMT set up a display lab to enhance R&D capability in 2013.

In 2019, with Applied’s strong commitment, AMT established a second Tainan Display Manufacturing Center and R&D Lab. With these new facilities, Tainan not only becomes the centerpiece of Applied Materials’ display business but also home to an advanced center designed to accelerate global innovation in display technology and create new jobs and economic opportunities. AMT closely partners with Taiwan customers to advance state-of-the-art semiconductor manufacturing for advanced 7nm node and beyond. For the display supply chain, our qualified local suppliers have been achieving 70% of key components and spare parts localization of Applied Display tools. With the great potential of Taiwan’s talent in the semiconductor and display industries, AMT opened a new Global Technical Learning Center in Hsinchu Science Park to facilitate engineer talent enhancement in 2018. The Learning Center provides more than 10 advanced semiconductor and display tools for training and consists of more than 70 trainers with years of experiences in industry around the world.
