Shong Jinbao electronics, Willie state, Guangdong Kingboard laminate PCB manufacturers in recent days have increased prices, price increases of 5 yuan to 6 yuan each or so. The important reason for price increases are raw material prices continue to rise, the relevant manufacturers hope that through price increases to conduct cost pressures.

As we all know, PCB is the “mother of electronic circuits”, downstream mainly including consumer electronics, automotive electronics communications equipment, in addition to computers, industrial control medical, aerospace, etc. PCB upstream raw materials for the copper-clad laminate (CCL), semi-cured sheet (PP), copper foil, copper ball, etc., of which copper-clad laminate accounted for 37% of the cost of the cost of the most important PCB raw materials. CCL, PP, copper foil, copper ball, etc., of which copper cladding board accounts for about 37% of the cost, is the most important PCB raw materials, other raw materials such as semi-cured sheet accounts for 13% of the cost, gold salt accounts for 8% of the cost, copper foil copper ball accounts for 5% of the cost.

Electronic copper foil, glass fiber, resin is the main raw material of copper-clad board, of which the cost of copper foil accounted for 30% -50%, the cost of fiberglass cloth accounted for 25% -40%, the cost of resin accounted for 25% -30%. Upstream material price increases, the cost of copper-clad laminates does have a significant impact.

In fact, PCB manufacturers in recent years have often faced the situation of rising raw material prices, but they have to mention price increases, always seem a little apprehensive, hesitant.
