Company Profile

Built for industrial semiconductor buyers and project teams

Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Guangzhou — at the heart of China's Greater Bay Area — PlutoChip has spent over a decade in the semiconductor materials and device industry, serving as a solutions provider that bridges Chinese semiconductor capacity with global SME customers.

Our founding team brings 10+ years of deep experience in semiconductor wafer materials and maintains long-term partnerships with leading Chinese foundries and semiconductor platforms. This gives PlutoChip a unique resource integration capability across mature 4/6/8/12-inch process nodes — critical in an era of tight 8-inch capacity and surging demand from automotive and industrial sectors.

PlutoChip operates a "Custom Foundry + Distribution" dual-drive model, precisely serving global small and medium semiconductor enterprises, in-house R&D teams, and electronic manufacturers through both custom fabrication services and authorized distribution channels.

Deep materials heritage

10+ years of silicon wafer experience gives us the materials-level understanding that makes our device and foundry advisory credible and effective.

Capacity coordination

Deep relationships with domestic foundries help SME customers secure scarce mature-process capacity that large distributors overlook.

Emerging market focus

We specialize in connecting Chinese semiconductor capacity to Southeast Asia, Middle East, Eastern Europe, South America and other high-growth emerging markets.
