What Is a SEMI S2 Evaluation?
SEMI S2 is the global safety guideline developed by SEMI (Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International). It applies to equipment used in semiconductor fabs and other high-tech manufacturing environments.
A SEMI S2 Evaluation ensures your machinery complies with international safety, environmental, and ergonomic expectations, often required by major fabs like Intel, TSMC, Samsung, and GlobalFoundries.
