Opportunity: Continuous technological development to create lucrative opportunities
Major companies in the industry are investing heavily in R&D to continuously develop their products. For instance, Samsung achieved 305Gbps on its 5G SA core, in collaboration with Intel. The company expects to launch 5G services more swiftly and cost-effectively through its highly flexible and scalable design. In 2020, Apple Inc. was granted a patent for a foldable device with a hinge mechanism that utilizes movable flaps to help prevent the display from being creased or damaged when folded.
Through these developments major companies are encouraging and challenging each other to exploit the benefits of flexible technology. The continuous technological development in the flexible electronics industry is expected to create lucrative opportunities for players in the flexible electronics & circuit market.
Challenge: Difficult repair and rework
Repairing and reworking flexible electronics is a very challenging process. The types of damage to flexible electronics can include ripped or cut flex material, heat damaged/lifted pads and damaged conductors. Highly skilled persons are required to repair such damage. In some instances, the whole circuit can be damaged in the repair process. Rework on the same flex circuit is a challenging job as the circuits are very thin and complex and require high precision machinery. A flexible circuit first needs to be cleaned of all the components present and all the conductor material to prevent any short-circuiting situations.
The multilayer flex circuit held the largest share of the flexible circuit market in 2020, and will continue to hold a dominant position in the market during the forecast period.
The multilayer flex circuit held the largest share of the flexible circuit market in 2020, and will continue to hold a dominant position in the market during the forecast period. Multilayer flex circuits offer reduction in assembly costs, time, package size, and weight. They also offer better signal integrity than other structure types and are increasingly being used in the military, defense & aerospace; communications; automotive; and consumer electronics verticals. Multilayer flex circuit boards have very fine lines, allowing enough space for other components. Hence, multilayer flex circuit boards have high board density that is suitable for high density applications.
The displays segment held the major share of the flexible electronics market in 2020 and is expected to continue to do so during the forecast period.
The displays segment held the major share of the market in 2020 and is expected to continue to do so during the forecast period. The market for flexible displays is led by industry leaders such as Samsung and LG who produce flexible OLED display panels for the smartphone application. The demand for these flexible display panels, especially OLED display panels, is expected to increase in future. Smartphone manufacturers such as Samsung and Apple have started deploying flexible OLED displays into their flagship smartphones, such as Samsung Galaxy S series and Note series as well as iPhone X and XS series. Various other smartphone vendors are expected to adopt flexible displays during the forecast period. Flexible displays are also being adopted for large-screen devices, such as televisions and digital signage solutions.
The consumer electronics vertical is expected to capture the largest share of the flexible electronics market
The consumer electronics vertical is expected to capture the largest share of the market based on vertical. The growth of this market can be attributed to the large-scale adoption of flexible displays in consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, wearables, televisions, etc. Flexible OLED displays are widely used in leading smartphones by industry leaders such as Apple Inc. and Samsung Group. Apple has plans to introduce the iPhone Flip with a flexible display. Such developments have significantly contributed to the growth of the overall market for the consumer electronics vertical.
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.
