Singapore, June 10, 2026 – In a strategic move to bolster its manufacturing and research capabilities, Applied Materials, Inc., a leading player in materials engineering solutions for the semiconductor industry, announced the expansion of its operations in Singapore. This expansion comes in response to the growing global demand for AI infrastructure, driven by the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence technologies.

1. Major Investment in the Tampines Campus

The company has inaugurated a new manufacturing and R&D facility at its Tampines Campus with a substantial investment of US$500 million (approximately S$600 million). This new facility more than doubles Applied Materials' advanced cleanroom capacity in Singapore, significantly enhancing its global manufacturing footprint, which already includes facilities in the United States, Europe, Israel, and Taiwan. The Tampines Campus is already operating at volume production, focusing on providing state-of-the-art equipment for chipmakers who are ramping up production to meet the surging demand for AI-driven semiconductors.

Gary Dickerson, President and CEO of Applied Materials, emphasized the transformative impact of AI across various sectors, stating, “AI is transforming every industry, creating unprecedented demand for advanced semiconductors. Our expanded manufacturing operations in Singapore strengthen Applied’s ability to deliver semiconductor manufacturing equipment that chipmakers need to bring next-generation chips to market faster.”

2. Commitment to Local Workforce and Ecosystem Development

The expansion marks a pivotal milestone in Applied Materials' Singapore 2030 plan, which aims to enhance the company's global manufacturing and R&D capabilities, foster technology ecosystem partnerships, and promote local workforce development. The new facility is expected to generate approximately 1,000 new jobs in Singapore over the next few years, reinforcing the company’s commitment to supporting industry growth and technology commercialization.

KC Ong, Group Vice President of Worldwide Manufacturing at Applied Materials, highlighted Singapore’s role as a strategic hub for the company. “Singapore has been a strategic hub of Applied Materials’ global operations for 35 years, and our expansion here is a testament to the world-class semiconductor ecosystem, infrastructure, and talent this country has built,” Ong remarked. He also noted that the new AI-enabled, automation-ready facility represents a significant advancement in manufacturing optimized for speed, precision, and quality.

3. Intelligent Manufacturing and Sustainability Initiatives

The Tampines Campus sets a new global standard for sustainable and intelligent semiconductor production. It incorporates cutting-edge technologies, including Autonomous Mobile Robots, autonomous assembly and testing systems, and AI-assisted quality inspection. This integration is designed to enhance collaboration between manufacturing, R&D, and ecosystem partners, thereby accelerating the time-to-market for new technologies.

The facility is designed to achieve the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) Green Mark Platinum Certification—the highest tier of Singapore’s green building rating system. Sustainable features include an on-site solar panel system, LED lighting, low-carbon concrete construction, and a closed-loop water reclamation system aimed at achieving zero water waste. Additionally, the Smart Building Management System will monitor energy and water consumption in real time.

Png Cheong Boon, Chairman of Singapore’s Economic Development Board, welcomed the expansion, stating, “Applied Materials’ use of advanced automation and AI technologies in their new facility will accelerate product development and push the envelope of advanced manufacturing capabilities in Singapore. We welcome this expansion that will strengthen our vibrant semiconductor ecosystem, creating quality jobs and opportunities for Singaporeans.”

4. Strengthening Global R&D and Manufacturing Capacity

Applied Materials has significantly increased its global manufacturing capacity in recent years, with the new Tampines Campus being a critical component of this strategy. Over the past five years, the company has invested more than US$400 million in its U.S. equipment manufacturing infrastructure. Furthermore, the upcoming US$5 billion EPIC Center in Silicon Valley, set to become operational later this year, represents the largest-ever U.S. investment in advanced semiconductor equipment R&D. This facility is designed to streamline the commercialization of breakthrough technologies from early-stage research to full-scale manufacturing.

5. Conclusion

The expansion of Applied Materials in Singapore not only underscores the company's commitment to meeting the burgeoning demand for AI semiconductors but also highlights its dedication to sustainability and local workforce development. As the semiconductor industry continues to evolve, Applied Materials is positioning itself at the forefront, ensuring it can support the next generation of technology with advanced manufacturing capabilities.
