Foxconn and Unimicron, which supply parts for Apple devices, announced that they suspended production at their factory in Shenzhen due to the new COVID-19 outbreak restrictions.
The effect of the epidemic continues
According to the shared information, the Chinese Government, which has taken a collective regime decision to reduce the spread of the virus, is reported to want the local people to stay indoors as much as possible. For this reason, the two manufacturers, who decided to suspend operations until further notice, stated that they have backup plans to avoid any delays.
Ukraine invasion may affect chip production
Although it is not known to what extent the decision will affect production, the COVID-19 outbreak continues to hit the semiconductor and technology industry. In addition, due to the Russian occupation of Ukraine, there are problems in the supply of high-quality neon used in semiconductor construction. Recently, Ingas and Cryoin companies in Ukraine, which are responsible for almost half of the global neon supply, announced that they have stopped production.
