GF Piping Systems earns TSMC's 2022 Excellent Performance Award
GF Piping Systems is one of only 18 Excellent Performance award recipients across TSMC's global supply chain.
The Excellent Performance Award recognizes global suppliers who performed well in technical cooperation, material development, support for volume production, facility construction management, and quality control. As one of only 18 Excellent Performance Award recipients, GF Piping Systems deepened cooperation with TSMC at all levels to drive continuous progress on new fab construction, achieving their goals on time with good quality.
Market demand for advanced semiconductor technology was strong throughout 2022, but at the same time, the industry faced the challenges of a prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and global transportation bottlenecks. In this environment, the operational resilience of the upstream supply chain, the ability to develop precision chemical materials and key tool components, and the provision of sufficient and high-quality production capacity were all crucial for TSMC to continue growing.
"We are extremely proud to receive this distinguished award from TSMC for our outstanding contribution to their new fabrication facility construction in 2022," said Joost Geginat, President of GF Piping Systems. "The ever-increasing importance of the semiconductor industry worldwide means that our vision of being a sustainability and innovation leader is well-matched with TSMC's goals of continuing to unleash innovation for the global semiconductor industry while serving as a committed corporate citizen around the world."
Within an increasingly competitive market, the semiconductor industry relies on suppliers to provide technology that makes manufacturing efficient, safe, and reliable. This particularly applies to the piping systems that transport anything from chemicals to process water. GF Piping Systems' leading technology and its global network of offsite prefabrication capabilities for highly engineered piping solutions ensure that it has a customer-oriented answer to overcome challenges such as skilled labor shortages, time constraints, cost overruns, quality concerns, and space limitations on construction sites.
