MicroBase Technology (3184), a leader in non-silicon-based MEMS technology, has achieved a major milestone by developing a 12cm-long industrial inkjet microporous Plate—nearly eight times the length of the industry-standard 1.5cm format. The high-performance polyimide (PI) film integrates precision laser drilling to form over 60,000 micron-scale channels, delivering enhanced chemical resistance and uniform spray performance. Now in mass production, this innovation marks MicroBase’s entry into the global industrial inkjet supply chain.
According to market research firm Mordor Intelligence, industrial applications dominate the inkjet printhead market with a 41% share in 2024, and are projected to grow at a CAGR of 7% through 2029.[1] Holding over 80% domestic market share in Taiwan for polymer-based microporous film processing, MicroBase has established strong partnerships with leading companies in the U.S., Singapore, Ireland, and the Philippines.
Through continuous technological advancement and capacity expansion, MicroBase has successfully transitioned from commercial printing to industrial inkjet applications. Its customized nozzle solutions address complex material requirements across industries such as food packaging, construction materials, and textiles—contributing to a 38.2% increase in consumer electronics revenue over the past three years. Backed by strong R&D capabilities and global competitiveness, MicroBase was honored with the 2025 National Industrial Innovation Award by Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs.
In response to growing global emphasis on sustainability, MicroBase has implemented smart manufacturing systems to optimize energy usage—adjusting workforce schedules to avoid peak consumption periods and introducing energy-saving measures. These initiatives have reduced carbon emissions by approximately 8,308 to 11,141 kilograms per month, equivalent to planting over 10,000 trees annually (based on Taiwan Forestry Bureau estimates that one tree absorbs 12 kg of CO₂ per year). This reflects the company’s dual commitment to sustainability and operational efficiency.
Aligning with its environmental values, MicroBase also participated in the 2025 Earth Hour global initiative, joining governments, corporations, and civil society organizations in switching off lights for one hour to raise awareness and reaffirm its commitment to a sustainable future.
