Murata completes new MLCC production building in Japan
What happened
Murata has completed a new JPY 47 billion MLCC production building in Izumo, Japan, adding nearly 70,000 sqm of floor space. This is part of a global strategy to geographically diversify and increase MLCC production capacity to meet medium- to long-term demand. Bearish: This planned capacity expansion adds to global MLCC supply, potentially easing structural tightness and exerting downward pressure on prices over the medium term.
