Market Overview:
The global flexible printed circuit board market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for consumer electronics, industrial electronics, automotive electronics, and other applications. In terms of type, the single-sided FPCBs segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global flexible printed circuit board market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their low cost and easy manufacturing process as compared to double-sided FPCBs.
Product Definition:
A Flexible Printed Circuit Board is a printed circuit board that has been designed to be flexible. This type of PCB can be used in a variety of applications, including medical devices, wearable technology, and transportation equipment. Flexible Printed Circuit Boards are important because they allow for the creation of smaller and more complex electronics assemblies.
Single-Sided FPCBs:
Single-sided FPCBs are flexible printed circuit boards that have one face covered with an adhesively attached foil or a laminate. The single side of the FPCB is used for soldering and mounting components on it while assembling electronic devices.
Double-Sided FPCBs:
Double-sided FPCBs are used in flexible printed circuit boards to provide both sides of the circuit. The two sides of the PCB can be different and can have different configurations as per requirement. These devices are widely used in electronic devices such as mobile phones, computers, modems, printers & copiers and other consumer electronics equipment owing to their low cost and high functionality.
Application Insights:
The application segment includes consumer electronics, industrial electronics, automotive electronics and others. The other applications include medical devices, aerospace & defense and building & construction. Consumer electronic is expected to be the fastest-growing application segment over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for flexible printed circuit boards in smartphones, wearable devices and tablets among other products.
Flexible printed circuit boards are used in various medical equipment such as stents that can be expanded or contracted depending on the size of a blood vessel they pass through during angiography procedures performed by cardiovascular surgeons. These FPCBs act as an alternative to traditional rigid cardiac monitors that are non-flexible due to their inflexibility which makes them difficult for surgeons to use during heart surgeries or angiography procedures performed by cardiovascular surgeons.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing demand for consumer electronics, industrial electronics, and automotive electronics products. China is one of the largest producers of flexible printed circuit boards as it has a large number of manufacturers in this country.
The U.S., Germany, Japan, South Korea are some other countries that have a significant demand for flexible PCBs from various end-use industries due to their high technological advancements in manufacturing processes and products over past few years. North America accounted for more than 20% share in terms of revenue owing to growing use cases such as medical devices & systems; aerospace & defense; solar energy system components; telecom equipment etc.; which require flexibility at each stage during product design/development cycle (prototyping).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices: Flexible Printed Circuit Boards are being increasingly used in miniaturized electronic devices due to their high flexibility and small size. This is driving the growth of the market for Flexible Printed Circuit Boards.
- Rising demand from automotive industry: The increasing use of electronics in automobiles is driving the demand for Flexible Printed Circuit Boards from the automotive industry. This is contributing to the growth of the market for Flexible Printed Circuit Boards.
