At a compound annual growth rate of 18.9%, the size of the worldwide Flexible Substrates market is projected to reach US$ 28.7 Bn in 2031.
The growth of the flexible substrate market can be attributed to the increasing demand from the electronics industry across the globe. Flexible substrates are increasingly being used in the production of flexible printed circuit board. They are also used for the production of smart solar modules. Moreover, their increased use in the manufacturing of medical & healthcare devices is also driving the growth of the flexible substrate market across the globe. Increased consumption of flexible substrates in solar application is also leading to the growth of the flexible substrate market, worldwide.
Demand for Flexible Substrates depends on the adoption of electronics activities and overall growth of the electronics sector. Retrieval of geopolitical conditions, balanced economic growth, increase in the affluent population, increased infrastructure expenditure, especially in developing economies, are likely to drive the electronics industry in emerging regions, in turn, augmenting the Flexible Substrates market. Another key driver of the global Flexible Substrates market is increased demand for metals in industries such as construction and transportation. Rapid urbanization, rise in disposable income, and industrialization across the globe are boosting demand for Flexible Substrates from these end-use industries. However, stringent smart government regulations regarding reagent usage during electronics is expected to hamper the Flexible Substrates market during the forecast period.
The major players operating in the global Flexible Substrates market include but are not limited to DuPont Teijin Films (US), Teijin (Japan), Schott (Germany), Corning (US), Polyonics (US), Kolon industries (South Korea), and Heraeus (Germany), among others., and others.
