We are the largest manufacturer of high and medium volume semiconductors in Hungary and our success is due to the many excellent and experienced professionals we have the opportunity to work with.

We have been present in Cegléd for more than 25 years and our company is still growing.

The company's history began in 1989 and our site, which once employed 37 people has become a leading, dynamically growing company in the city and its surrounding area. Today we produce millions of semiconductors every year, mainly in the automotive, industrial automation, traction, medical equipment, power generation, transport and distribution and renewable energy sectors.

We make life easier, safer and greener. Together with our customers and partners. For a better tomorrow.

Our history

The company’s history began in 1989 in Cegléd. TET (Teljesítmény Elektronikai Közkereseti Társaság), whose members included CVEM (Cegléd Iron, Electrical and Instrumentation Cooperative), VKI (Research Institute of the Electrical Industry), and Mercator (AEG's representative in Hungary), began assembling and testing pressed-contact bipolar semiconductor disk diodes, thyristors, and modules in Cegléd under license from AEG.

The following year, eupec GmbH was founded at AEG’s semiconductor production site in Warstein, Germany, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Siemens in 1995. In Hungary, the semiconductor assembly activities started by TET were continued by eupec Hungária Kft. from November 1996, as a fully owned subsidiary of eupec GmbH.

Before 1996, one million power semiconductors had been produced in Cegléd, but the establishment of an independent company marked the beginning of dynamic growth.

In 2000, Infineon AG was created from Siemens' semiconductor division. That same year, the company purchased real estate in Hungary, including the production area, from CVEM.

In 2001, the New BIP Project enabled the relocation of assembly and testing for the full range of bipolar pressure contact products to Cegléd, following a reconstruction of the buildings.

Dynamic development of the site began in 2002. In January 2004, production commenced in a new 4,500 m², two-story building, creating 300 new jobs. At this point, the assembly technology for IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) modules was introduced. This project brought cutting-edge technology to Cegléd, supported by the European Union and the Hungarian Government. Its success is due in large part to well-trained young professionals and the strong support of experienced German colleagues.

In 2005, Infineon AG integrated its Hungarian subsidiary.

Since October 2007, the manufacturing of the two main product types has been carried out by two separate Infineon companies in Hungary. While Infineon Technologies Bipolar Ltd. has been producing bipolar semiconductors since 1989, Infineon Technologies Cegléd Ltd. has become the European mass production hub for IGBT products.

In 2009, Infineon Technologies invested over €10 million to further expand its power semiconductor manufacturing activities, acquiring new equipment and establishing an additional production facility in Cegléd. Over the following years, production of IGBT modules more than doubled to approximately six million units per year.

Since its inception, Infineon's strategic capacity expansions and competence development have aligned closely with Hungary’s key economic development goals. The success of its projects has also benefited from consistent governmental support.

Product reliability is underpinned by a commitment to quality. The ‘Zero Defect’ philosophy emphasizes quality awareness and customer satisfaction. In recognition of this commitment, the company received the international "Factory of the Year" award (AT Kearney) in 2014.

Thanks to the precision and dedication of its workforce, the company has earned the trust to launch new product lines and create additional jobs. One such line is the IHM (IGBT High-Power Module), part of Infineon's portfolio of high-complexity, high-performance products.

The product range continues to expand in alignment with global megatrends and corporate strategy. Currently, semiconductor components produced in Cegléd serve applications in industrial automation, traction, medical equipment, power generation, transportation and distribution, renewable energy, and electric vehicle drives.

Infineon companies hold a wide array of international certifications in areas such as quality, environmental management, occupational health and safety, energy management, information security, and data protection.

Thanks to 25 years of development, the company now produces over 15 million high-performance semiconductors. From humble beginnings with just 37 employees, it has grown into a dynamic enterprise with nearly 2,000 employees and is a major presence in the region.

In 2019, Infineon Technologies Cegléd Kft. opened a Budapest branch focused on activities within the Green Industrial Power (GIP) division. Sales operations are also being developed.

Green Industrial Power delivers innovative solutions for industrial drives, inverters for home appliances, solar and wind energy systems, traction drives, industrial power supplies, construction and agricultural vehicles (CAVs), electric car chargers, energy storage, energy generation and distribution, and industrial welding equipment.

As part of the GIP division, the Budapest branch supports the rapid market introduction of new products, sample production, and development. It ensures the highest quality for both prototype and series products, meeting customer requirements while maintaining delivery capabilities, reliability, and change management.

The Budapest office hosts over 1,500 m² of facilities for electrical and mechanical product development. Its electrical validation laboratory qualifies new products and integrates them into the quality assurance system. Meanwhile, the supply chain management team oversees mass production scheduling in Cegléd, integrates new and sample products into logistics workflows, and optimizes semiconductors throughout their life cycle.

The Budapest site offers further growth potential. Our ongoing progress is reflected not only in our expansion but also in receiving the "Reliable Employer" award twice.

Infineon Technologies Bipoláris Kft.

 

Infineon Technologies Bipolar GmbH & Co. KG in Warstein and Infineon Technologies Bipolar Kft. in Cegléd, the former product line of Infineon Technologies AG, spun off as separate companies in October 2007 to focus even more on the increasingly specialised markets for high performance semiconductors. Siemens AG acquired a stake in the new joint venture. Together, they have completed major projects such as the development of semiconductor thyristors with a 6" silicon wafer diameter - as an important milestone of innovation! The joint venture combines many years of expertise in high-performance electronics with the flexibility and dynamism of a lean and innovative company.

Energy efficiency is a key driver for markets and its importance will continue to grow in the future. Few companies in the world are as well versed in high-performance semiconductor technology as Infineon Technologies Bipolar GmbH & Co. KG and its subsidiary. This means that more than 600 employees at its sites in Warstein and Cegléd (Hungary) are facing the exciting challenges of the future.

The Infineon Technologies Bipolar GmbH & Co. KG in Warstein and the Infineon Technologies Bipoláris Kft in Cegléd, a former Infineon Technologies AG product sector, was spun off in October 2007 as a separate entity in order to serve with even greater focus the increasingly specialized markets of high power semiconductors. Siemens AG participated in the new joint venture. Together some significant projects have been undertaken, such as the development of semiconductor switches (thyristors) with a silicon wafer diameter of six inches - an important innovation step! The joint venture combines our long-standing expertise in power electronics with the flexibility and dynamism of a lean and innovative company. Energy efficiency is the pivotal market driver and will continue to grow in importance in the future. World-wide, there are only few companies as proficient as Infineon Technologies Bipolar GmbH & Co. KG and subsidiary in high power semiconductor technology.
