BEIJING- July 7th, 2012 – A new study by GCiS China Strategic Research discovered that Chinese LED wafer makers’ profit margins are under increasing pressure from oversupply and stiff foreign competition. Prices have been dropping in this market by around 10% over the last few years, and current polls suggest that sliding prices may continue.

The report covers all LED wafer products, from high-power white LEDs to low-power colored LEDs and even ultraviolet LEDs. Foreign competition in each market segment differs greatly, depending mainly on the technology necessary for production, with high-tech product markets still mainly in the hands of foreign suppliers.

Governmental support of suppliers through production equipment subsidies and local lighting projects has drawn more domestic companies to enter the market and expand capacity, competing on volume and price. However this pits capacity against capacity, and has led the whole industry to become inundated with the thin wafers. All are just side effects of the Chinese commoditization strategy. This commoditization tale will span over years, and certainly not months, however.
