The price of electronic cloth has increased by 100%, and there have been 5 price increases this year for electronic cloth.

Electronic cloth, known as electronic grade glass fiber cloth, is a key basic material in the electronic industry, mainly used in the manufacturing of copper-clad laminates and printed circuit boards, and then applied to various electronic products such as data center servers, smartphones, and 5G communication base stations. CCTV financial reporters found that since the beginning of this year, there has been a surge in demand for computing power, driving a sharp increase in the price of electronic cloth. By early June, commonly used specifications of electronic cloth had undergone five rounds of price increases this year, with an average price of 7.4 RMB per meter, representing a 100% increase compared to the low point in the third quarter of last year. Due to the high requirements on production equipment and process control for electronic cloth, the expansion pace of production capacity has been objectively restricted. Experts believe that the tight supply and demand situation for electronic cloth may continue. Industry insiders predict that due to the long production cycle of electronic yarn expansion and the time required for the landing of high-end electronic cloth production capacity, it is still uncertain when the electronic cloth market will restore supply-demand balance and this will need to be observed.
