Transparent conductive films market refers to the manufacturing and application of TCF panels either on glass or on films. The TCF market in this report includes both glass and film based transparent conductors. This market is highly fragmented and complex in nature. There are numerous players creating a perfect competitive environment. The market is growing primarily due to rising demand for touch enabled devices and market penetration of tablets and tablet PCs. OLED lighting, OPV and DSSSC are also potential markets but they are expected to experience slower growth during the forecast period. Key reason for this slow growth would be existing competition and uncertainty in demand for the same.
Declining cost of smartphones, rising adoption of touch UI interface devices, low power consumption, minimal reflection, thinness and flexibility & robustness are the key drivers of this market. Lack of one-size-fits-all solution and multiplicity of options for a specific application are the two key factors deterring the market growth. Displays and photovoltaic applications are offering huge potential for the application of TCF in the coming years. Moreover, rising demand for tablet PCs and notebooks would also give a thrust to the market during the forecast period.
Segment review
The Transparent conductive films market is segmented on the basis of technology, application and geography. Key technologies implemented in manufacturing of TCF include ITO on PET, ITO on Glass, Non ITO oxides, Silver Nanowires, Graphene, Carbon Nanotube, Metal Mesh, Micro fine Wire, and PEDOT. The application industries included in this report include smartphones, tablets and tablet PCs, notebooks, all-in-one PCs, monitors, TV displays, OLED lighting, and OPV & DSSC. The global market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and LAMEA. Asia Pacific was the leading region in the TCF market followed by North America in 2013. Most of the electronic device manufacturing factories are concentrated in the Asia Pacific region. This is the key reason for the substantial market share of this region.
World Transparent conductive films Market Scenario
The transparent conductive film (TCF) market is in the progressive phase of its life cycle. This market comprises of technologies implemented in TCF manufacturing as well as its application in electronic devices. Most of the TCF manufacturers are based in Asia; however, they are sufficient to fulfill the global demand. The market is surging higher primarily due to rising demand for touch-enabled devices, specifically due to market penetration of tablets and tablet PCs. The prospects for the application of TCF in the coming years look promising due to displays and photovoltaic applications. Moreover, rising demand for tablet PCs and notebooks would also propel the market forward during the forecast period.
World Transparent conductive films competitive analysis
The key companies in this market include 3M Company, Nitto Denko Corporation, Toyobo Corporation, Dupont Teijin Films, Eastman Kodak, Fujifilm Holdings Corporation, Canatu Oy, DONTECH Inc, Cambrios Technologies Corporation, and Rolith. The leading companies dealing in transparent conductive film manufacturing follow various strategies to sustain the complexity in the market and to plan their growth in the future.
Transparent conductive film market is highly fragmented in terms of both the technologies used and their apparent applications. TCF industry is in the progressive phase of its product life cycle, which is due to novel technologies gaining ground within the TCF industry. Prevailing trend of tablet and tablet PCs in the handheld device market coupled with rising demand for touch functionality in display devices are predominant factors shaping the future of the TCF industry. In the prevailing market conditions, ITO based TCFs own Lions share in the market primarily as it is a seasoned technology. Potentially strong technologies such as metal mesh and silver nanowire, which have emerged in recent years, are making strong inroads and are expected to be tough competitive technologies. Smartphones lead the applications market primarily due its large sales volume throughout the globe. Its leadership among touch UI devices in terms of unit sales would continue assisting this segment to be the market leader during the next seven years. The market may however change its facet during the extended forecast period of 2020 to 2025 and the tablets and tablet PCs market may overtake the smartphones market. Geographically, Asia Pacific is the undisputed leader as almost half of the industries that find the application of TCF in their products are based in APAC region. North America follows APAC claiming its ownership on nearly one third of the market. Europe and LAMEA own no significant share in the global market. During the extended forecast period of 2020 to 2025, TCF industry is expected to transform into a bullish market due to probable huge demand for touch UI in a wide range of electronic products.
