Overview In October 2024 United Kingdom's Machines and apparatus of a kind used solely or principally for the manufacture of semiconductor boules or wafers, semiconductor devices, electronic integrated circuits or flat panel displays exports accounted up to £54M and imports accounted up to £26.8M, resulting in a positive trade balance of £27.2M. Between October 2023 and October 2024 the exports of United Kingdom's Machines and apparatus of a kind used solely or principally for the manufacture of semiconductor boules or wafers, semiconductor devices, electronic integrated circuits or flat panel displays have decreased by £-87.6k (-0.16%) from £54.1M to £54M, while imports decreased by £-3.87M (-12.6%) from £30.7M to £26.8M.
Destinations In October 2024, Machines and apparatus of a kind used solely or principally for the manufacture of semiconductor boules or wafers, semiconductor devices, electronic integrated circuits or flat panel displays were exported mostly to China (£12.3M), Germany (£6.86M), United States (£6.83M), Chinese Taipei (£6.54M), and Austria (£5.42M), and were imported mostly from Netherlands (£6.98M), United States (£5.35M), Germany (£5.18M), Japan (£2.25M), and China (£2.15M).
Growth In October 2024, the decrease in Machines and apparatus of a kind used solely or principally for the manufacture of semiconductor boules or wafers, semiconductor devices, electronic integrated circuits or flat panel displays's year-by-year exports was explained primarily by a decrease in exports to China (£-4.93M or -52.5%), Malaysia (£-4.25M or -59.7%), and Finland (£-1.78M or -95.7%). In October 2024, the decrease in Machines and apparatus of a kind used solely or principally for the manufacture of semiconductor boules or wafers, semiconductor devices, electronic integrated circuits or flat panel displays's year-by-year imports was explained primarily by a decrease in imports from France (£-199k or -59.3%), Bulgaria (£-188k or -76.9%), and Singapore (£-113k or -75.3%).
