Market Overview:
The global optical fiber coating market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for optical fiber coatings in telecommunication and networking, data centers, factory automation and industrial networking, military, and other applications. Inorganic coatings are expected to dominate the global optical fiber coating market during the forecast period owing to their superior properties such as high resistance against abrasion and chemical corrosion.
Product Definition:
A coating is a material that is applied to the surface of an object, often to protect it or improve its appearance. Optical fiber coatings are used to protect optical fibers from damage and to improve their performance. They can also be used to change the color or other characteristics of the fiber.
Organic Coating:
Organic coating is a thin layer of paint applied on the surface of fiber. It can be either solvent-based or water-based. The organic coatings market has witnessed significant growth over the past few years owing to its increasing usage in optical fiber coating industry for cable insulation and protection purpose.
Inorganic Coating:
Inorganic coating is a type of protective covering used on the exterior of optical fibers. The inorganic coating consists of materials such as chromium, nickel, and titanium dioxide. These coatings provide protection to the fiber from scratches or damages that may occur during installation or while it’s being used for transmission and distribution of information.
The global inorganic coating market size was valued at USD 1.91 billion in 2016.
Application Insights:
The data centers application segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The rising demand for high-speed interconnection networks, increasing cloud-based applications, and growing IT infrastructure spending are some of the key factors driving this industry growth.
Telecommunication & networking was the second largest application segment in 2017. Optical fiber coatings have been witnessing significant adoption in telecommunication & networking applications owing to their ability to enhance network performance and reliability while reducing operational costs by minimizing downtime. These coatings also help telecom operators achieve higher bandwidth utilization by providing enhanced signal transmission efficiency across all types of optical fibers including single mode, multi-mode, and super-mode fibers as well as through copper wires or wireless channels.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth is attributed to the presence of a large number of telecommunication companies and data centers in this region. Moreover, growing demand for high bandwidth capacity across various applications has been driving the regional market over the past few years.
Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as one of the fastest-growing regions during 2018 to 2030 due to increasing investments by various governments and telecom companies for deploying fiber optic cables coating systems across this region. For instance, China Eastern Airlines Corporation Ltd., which serves most parts of China, signed an agreement with Corning Incorporated for using its Optical Fiber Products (OFP) on aerial cables & infrastructure systems products globally excluding Japan in February 2016. This initiative was taken up specifically for expanding its business operations across Asia Pacific including Australia and New Zealand at a time when it had planned expansion only within Asia Pacific itself from 2012 till 2020 (Corning Incorporated press release).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for optical fiber cables from telecommunication and data communication industries
- Rising adoption of optical fiber cables in the automotive sector
- Growing demand for high-speed internet connectivity and bandwidth-intensive applications
- Proliferation of next-generation networks (5G, IoT, etc.)
- Technological advancements in optical fiber coating materials and processes
