Fab construction

The construction of semicon fabs is gaining pace around the world as countries see technology production to be of vital interest to national security. We support your semicon fab construction by arranging transport and logistics of all the building materials and construction elements required for these highly specialised manufacturing facilities.

Investing in your semicon supply chain

In the coming years, DSV is investing 250M USD in supply chain infrastructure for the semiconductor industry in the US alone. For example, we have built warehouses across the US specifically tailored for the semiconductor industry and invested in specialized trucks for moving equipment. We are also proud to open the first new airport for the semiconductor industry in Arizona with another planned to open soon in Ohio.
