Overview
Second of two new 300mm fabs GlobalFoundries was selected to operate at its Malta, New York campus under the U.S.-Japan initiative announced 14 October 2026. An additional roughly $10 billion in Japanese investment would fund this fab "at a later date," bringing the two-fab program to up to $21 billion total; some reporting frames it as effectively a third Malta building beyond the existing Fab 8 and the already-planned Fab 8.2 expansion. Expected to add about 900,000 300mm wafers per year of capacity (matching the first fab) once built, but funding and schedule for this second facility remain conditional and no construction timeline has been set. Key facility details include: The facility is situated at Malta, New York, USA. It focuses on Logic / Foundry on 300mm wafers. This site represents a production capacity of 75,000 wafers per month.
