The global ultra-thin glass market size is projected to grow from USD 6.8 billion in 2020 to USD 18.08 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 13.0%.
The term "ultra-thin glass" refers to a type of high-end glass with a very thin thickness (below 1 mm). It's thinner than a single human hair strand, giving it an advantage over conventional substrate materials, including plastics, metals, and silicon. It provides outstanding optical quality, thermal stability, chemical consistency, and mechanical resistance in all applications. In the semiconductor sector, ultra-thin glass is frequently employed in electronics applications to enable microchips with the highest data transfer rates. Electronic and optical sensors, as well as energy storage devices, use ultra-thin glass. Because of its qualities like abrasion and corrosion resistance, flexibility, gas barrier capabilities, surface smoothness, and transparency, ultra-thin glass plays a significant role in the electronics sector. These characteristics make it ideal for touch and display panels, electronic and optical sensors, energy storage devices, semiconductors, and organic electronics like oxygen and moisture barriers.
The factors driving the market are growing due to the increased demand for various consumer electronics goods such as smartphones and televisions. The demand for highly flexible materials is driving growth in the worldwide ultra-thin glass market. The market's growth may be limited by the high cost of raw materials and the availability of low-cost alternatives, such as plastics. The increased use of ultra-thin glass in solar products is projected to provide market participants with profitable opportunities.
This study delivers a comprehensive analysis of the manufacturing process, application, and region. The manufacturing process segment includes fusion, down-draw, and float. The fusion segment held the largest market share. The high growth rate can be due to its simplicity, efficiency, and growing use by a variety of manufacturers. Corning was the first business to use the overflow-fusion method to make specialty glass. The application segment includes a touch panel display, semiconductor substrate, and fingerprint sensor. The touch panel display segment holds the largest market share owing to the rising demand for smartphones and televisions; this market has increased significantly over the years. The ultra-thin glass market in the touch panel displays application category is predicted to develop as digitalization grows.
The market has been divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America. Asia-Pacific accounts for the highest market share in the ultra-thin glass industry. This is due to the increasing use of ultra-thin glass in the consumer electronics and automotive industries in developing countries like China, India, and South Korea. China, as the world's largest producer of automobiles, has a high demand for ultra-thin glass in various automotive interior panels. North America is likely to see consistent market growth due to rising consumer disposable income and substantial investments from industry participants.
Some of the key players profiled in the report include AGC Inc., Nippon Electric Glass, Corning Inc., Schott AG, CSG Holding, Nippon Sheet Glass, and Central Glass Co., Ltd. In December 2019, CSG Holding Co., Ltd said that it would build a kiln to make ultra-white electronic and ultra-white special glass with thicknesses ranging from 0.33 to 1.1mm, which is used in electronic display tempered protective glass mobile phones.
