On August 28, Kingboard Laminates, a leading enterprise in PCB materials, issued a price increase notice, announcing an immediate hike in the prices of several core PCB material products, with increases ranging from 10% to 20%. This marks the seventh price increase by Kingboard Laminates in 2026, following four rounds of adjustments from January to May and additional hikes in June and July. The primary reasons for the price increases are the tight supply and significant price surges of core raw materials such as upstream glass cloth and copper foil.
