Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Market Overview
Flexible printed circuit boards are also known as flexible printed circuits. Consist of a metallic layer of traces, usually copper, bonded to a dielectric layer, usually polyimide thickness of the metal layer can be very thin to very thick, and dielectric thickness can vary from flexible printed circuits that were originally designed as a replacement for traditional wire harnesses. A flexible circuit in its purest form is a vast array of conductors sandwiched between very thin dielectric film layers. The flexible printed circuit boards reduce wiring errors and remove mechanical connectors. These are popular due to their cheaper assembly time and costs, airflow, and system reliability.
The increasing demand for flexible electronics is expected to grow during the forecast period
The increasing demand for flexible electronics, the miniaturization of electronic devices, and growing trends towards Internet of Things (IoT) devices are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. The growing demand for smartphones, tablets, and wearable gadgets is also fueling the growth of the Flexible Printed Circuit Board Market. Furthermore, the market is being driven by developments in manufacturing methods like roll-to-roll processing, which enables the production of FPCBs at lower costs and bigger volumes. One of the most important major trends in the Flexible Printed Circuit Board Market is the increasing use of FPCBs in automotive applications.
Asia-Pacific is expected to hold a Significant Share of the Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Market over the Forecast Period
The Asia-pacific region dominates the flexible printed circuit board market and held the largest revenue share 70% during the forecast period. Countries such as China, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea are semiconductors and produce almost 80% of PCB production worldwide. The growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for consumer electronics and the growing adoption of FPCBs in the automation industry.
Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Market Segmentation
Based on Type, the flexible printed circuit boards market is segmented into single-sided FPCB, double-sided FPCB, Multilayer FPCB, and Rigid-Flex FPCB. They are widely used used in simple applications where cost is a major concern. The multilayer circuit segment is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 12% over the forecast period.
FPCBs have widespread applications across various industries, the consumer electronics segment is expected to witness considerable expansion, at a CAGR of more than 12% during the forecast period, driven by the budding demand for flexible displays in smartphones, tablets, and PCs.

07/16/2024 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankLaminate materials are the building blocks on which printed circuit boards are manufactured. Circuit board designers rely on the critical electrical properties of the materials to design the interconnects, and with the drive toward IoT (internet of things), autonomous driving, and virtual and augmented reality, material properties take on a very high level of importance.
Beyond Prepreg: The Glassless ‘Revolution’
06/25/2024 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineAs our industry rallies around the call to action for HDI and UHDI, we find unparalleled and myriad laminate options. This abundance is rivaled only by the question surrounding them: Can they measure up to the high technology packaging demands required in our near future? Unsurprisingly, recent developments in FR-4-esque materials for high-speed and high-density designs, as well as newer, glassless technology for replacing traditional glass-impregnated laminates and prepreg, are garnering much interest. I caught up with Alun Morgan, technology ambassador for Ventec International Group, to ask about the impending “glassless revolution” and how it’s poised to solve some of our manufacturing challenges.
Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—Lamination and Materials
06/19/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsAs many of you have likely figured out, I am quite passionate about the subject of designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. I wrote a book about it and I participate in an I-Connect007 On the Line with… podcast series dedicated to the subject. This companion article will focus on multilayer lamination, keeping the bigger picture in mind: Realistic PCB designs should prioritize manufacturability and reliability of the PCB as well as meet the other design requirements. So, one must account for the production variables associated with individual manufacturing partners.
