Two EU laws, one shared gap. The blind spot isn't in IT — it's on the production floor. Closing compliance for real means traceability across all three levels: supply chain, storage, and programming.
A new ZVEI study shows: Europe's semiconductor demand will double by 2040, equivalent to 65 new fabs. New capacity is being built in Asia. What this means for your parts supply — and what you can do today.
A 30-cent component going end-of-life can shut down a production line worth half a million euros per hour. Long-term storage is your insurance – but only if it's done right. Discover the three levels that make the difference.
Helium from Ras Laffan, rare earth controls, and new TSMC fabs: global politics is increasingly deciding which standard components become critical parts – and how resilient your component logistics and semiconductor supply chain really are.
Legacy nodes, DDR4 phase‑out and geopolitics are making “everyday” components strategic risks. The article explains what drives the next chip crisis – and how transparency and Critical Parts by btv help you respond instead of firefighting.
In 2023, over 328,000 end-of-life notifications were registered worldwide – one third without any prior warning. Without proactive obsolescence management, you are always reacting too late. What a structured approach looks like and why long-term storage alone does not create reliable supply security.
The Nexperia crisis is far from over – just less noisy. An automotive supplier relies on wafer sourcing in Europe and btv’s TAK one‑stop shop to stabilise its semiconductor supply and cut complexity.
The chip crisis 2.0 shows that efficiency without control leads nowhere. While new European fabs take years, companies can act now: TAK makes supply chains transparent, audit‑ready and cost‑efficient – without margins, with full control.
btv technologies ranks 56th out of 2 million companies and 3rd in the electronics industry. The TAK model for transparency, agility, and cost efficiency makes the difference.
Customized supply chain, value-added services, and long-term storage for automotive, industrial, semiconductor, medical technology, and more—all from a single source.
