Canada PCB Market Report 2025-2030: Strong Growth Projected Amid EV Boom, 5G Rollout, and Defense Investments
May 29, 2025 | Globe NewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Canada Printed Circuit Board Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2025-2031F. The Canada PCB market is set for robust growth in the coming years, driven by several factors.
The Canada Printed Circuit Board (PCB) market is experiencing robust growth, fueled by advancements in electronics and rising consumer demand across various industries. The automotive sector, where PCBs are integral, saw a substantial production increase from $55.23 billion in 2020 to $74.6 billion in 2023, driven by the industry's transition to electric vehicles (EVs). Similarly, the aerospace sector is benefiting from investments like the Strategic Innovation Fund's (SIF) $350 million initiative in 2023 to support Sustainable Aviation Technology, creating demand for specialized PCBs used in green technologies.
The telecommunications sector is also a significant contributor, with the widespread deployment of 5G and the growing use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices further boosting the market. The Canadian manufacturing sector, which contributed $174 billion (10% of GDP) in 2023, plays a pivotal role in this expansion. As industries like defense, healthcare, and telecommunications continue to evolve, the demand for PCBs in these applications is expected to accelerate, fostering sustained growth in the market.
The expansion of electric vehicles, with over 85,500 annual sales of battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, is increasing the demand for high-performance PCBs in the automotive sector. Government targets of 60% zero-emission vehicle sales by 2030 further accelerate this growth. Additionally, the continued rollout of 5G networks, along with the rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, drives consistent demand for advanced PCBs in telecommunications and consumer electronics.
The integration of AI with 5G networks necessitates high-speed, low-latency PCBs, while Canada's Quantum 2030 strategy, which fosters innovation in quantum hardware, further enhances the market's growth potential. Furthermore, the Canadian government's commitment to investing US$29 billion over 20 years in modernizing defense systems, including surveillance, command and control, and air weapons systems, would also increase demand for advanced PCBs in defense applications. Collectively, these factors would significantly boost demand, ensuring a prosperous future for Canada's PCB market.
