COVID-19 Impact on the Global Flexible Electronics & Circuit Market
The outbreak and the spread of COVID-19 have significantly impacted players operating in the flexible electronics & circuit value chain. Rising demand for consumer electronic devices is one of the key factors fueling the growth of the flexible electronics & circuit market. However, as the complete shutdown of all manufacturing plants, public places and offices due to lockdowns across the world, the demand for flexible electronics decreased dramatically. Also, demand of these electronics have decreased significantly worldwide owing to lockdowns imposed by different governments to contain the spread of the COVID-19, it has impacted the growth of the flexible electronics & circuit market. Moreover, these lockdowns have also impacted the GDP of countries and the per capita income of individuals across the world. The low disposable income has resulted in reduced purchasing power of masses, thereby resulting in a decline in the y-o-y growth for the whole market.
However, the latter half of the year is expected to witness normalization in the inventory levels and increased demand for flexible electronics products owing to stabilization in the consumer electronics, and automotive verticals. The COVID-19 outbreak affected the production of flexible electronics & circuit as factories across the world were temporarily shut down to curb the spread of the infection and the demand was also decreased.
Market Dynamics:
Driver: Rising demand for consumer electronic devices
Flexible electronics are cost effective, durable, and reliable, and widely used in smartphones, PCs, TVs, tablets, wearables, and other consumer electronic devices. Flexible displays are integrated in such devices to save on space, and reduce thickness and weight. The two major types of displays used are flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED), and flexible organic liquid crystal display (OLCD). The demand for flexible electronics is growing with the increasing demand for consumer electronic devices. Although there has been a dip in the shipment of smartphones due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the smartphone market is expected to revive soon.
The growing penetration of consumer electronic devices across sectors also fuels growth in the flexible electronics & circuit market.
Restraint: High investment cost
When it comes to new technologies cost reduction is often a strong driver of R&D efforts. However, the cost of new materials and equipment for flexible electronics research is very high. Manufacturers thus need a huge focus on R&D to create value beyond cost reduction, such as thinner and more lightweight, robust and flexible products. Decisions regarding investments in certain technologies will be ruled by their material properties. The development of new technologies also needs precision machinery and trained personnel, adding to the overall costs. The high investment involved is thus a restraint for the flexible electronics & circuit market.
By region, APAC Flexible electronics & circuit market estimated to grow at highest CAGR throughout the forecast period
APAC held the largest share of the overall flexible electronics market, based on region, in 2020. The growth of the market can be attributed to the presence of leading players from the flexible electronics ecosystem such as Samsung Group, LG Corp., Panasonic Corporation, and Konica Minolta Inc. These players have captured a major share of the flexible electronics market, thereby contributing significantly to the growth of the market in APAC. The flexible electronics market in North America is projected to record the highest CAGR from 2021 to 2026, largely due to the increasing establishment of high-technology industries of flexible electronics for military use. A number of US states that are at the forefront of innovation have established research centers for flexible and printed electronics.
Samsung Group (South Korea), LG Corp. (South Korea), Panasonic Corporation (Japan), The 3M Company (US), Konica Minolta Inc. (Japan), First Solar, Inc. (US), E Ink Holdings (Taiwan), PragmatIC Printing Ltd. (UK), Blue Spark Technologies, Inc. (US), and BrightVolt Technologies (US), are some of the key players in the flexible electronics & circuit market.
