Conformal Coatings Market Size Worth $16 Billion by 2026
June 27, 2019 | Globe NewswireEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
The global conformal coatings market is estimated to grow at CAGR above 5.2% over the forecast time frame 2019 to 2026 and reach the market value around $16 billion by 2026.
Increasing demand is anticipated to drive development in the manufacturing of conformal coatings for automotive and electronic components. Due to the existence of countless medium to big producers and distributors, the industry is extremely competitive and fragmented. There is a risk to fresh entries due to the strong rivalry between current players with high capital investments. But fast development of end-use sectors is anticipated to stimulate demand in the developing markets that require large quantities of conformal coatings.
Regional authorities in Asia-Pacific have introduced national management systems and initiatives to further develop their economies. For example, the 'Make in India' system is attracting more and more significant international players to invest in national manufacturing. This is anticipated to result in increased demand for the item over the projected era.
Conformal coating production systems are constantly being updated in order for effective electronic and automotive end use products to suit changing customer demands. This has resulted to intense research and development attempts by important actors in the sector to create distinctive and innovative goods & technology such as selective needle dissemination, ultrasound coatings and even select movie coatings.
Moreover, increased demand for consumer electronics drives market development, as it protects appliances against heat, dirt and dust. Growing miniaturization of electronic devices such as mobile telephones and motors fuels demand worldwide for products. With the implementation of multiple electronic systems, namely intelligent watches, home automation and cooking facilities the use of conformal coatings has raised. Demand in automotive electronic equipment is increasing to guarantee long-term vehicle reliability.
Key Findings
Due to its outstanding dielectricity and elevated abrasion resistance, it was appropriate for use in printed circuit boards, the Urethane product section represented about 14% of the general market in 2016.
In terms of the comprehensive utilization of consumer electronics, electronics is anticipated to be the fastest increasing sector for applications, which rises at an estimated CAGR of more than 6% over the forecast era.
As a result of the saturation of national economies and slower development of automotive manufacturing in the region, Europe's conformal covering market is anticipated to see a slow growth rate in the rest of the region.
In Latin America, a CAGR of over 5% is anticipated to advance during the forecast era as foreign investments in electronics and medical industries increase in the forecast era.
Key Players & Strategies
Their position in this landscape has strengthened. By means of strategic investments and product innovations, leading businesses reinforce the foundations of conformal coating. For example, Shin-Etsu Chemical announced, in September 2018, that it will invest almost EUR 110 billion in its silicone company in anticipation of an rise in silicone demand. The firm concentrates on the growth of silicone monomer manufacturing capability at its primary bases in Japan and worldwide with this investment.
Other competitors on the conformal layering market are concentrated on product development in an effort to position themselves strongly in this capital intensive market. In January2019 for instance, Electrolube announced its development in multiple sectors of the end-use industry, including auto industry and electronics, of a new line of UV-cured conformal coating products which can lower manufacturing time to provide greater efficiency for producers.
