市场动态
Global Anti-reflective Coatings Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Application (Eyewear, Electronics, Semiconductors, Solar Panels, Automotive Displays, and Others), by Technology (Vacuum Deposition, Electronic Beam Evaporation, and Sputtering), and by Layer Type (Single Layered and Multi Layered), Forecast Period (2024-2031)
The anti-reflective coatings market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period (2024-2031). The growth of the anti-reflective coating market is driven by an increase in demand for anti-reflective coatings from the eyewear and photovoltaic industry and a surge in acceptance of anti-reflective glasses in the construction industry. However, the high cost associated with the product and the lack of awareness among consumers and service providers curb the market growth. Continued progress in the anti-reflective coating market, such as the development of improved coatings, self-cleaning coatings, and coatings with improved durability that provide better power supply for solar panels, is favorable and expected to provide a lucrative opportunity for its market growth.
Market Dynamics
Emerging Applications of Anti-reflective Coatings
There is an increasing consumption and demand for anti-reflective covering across different applications including medical and high-resolution displays. In addition, there is extensive use of anti-reflective coverings in medical applications such as diagnostics, treatment, and analysis, due to the advancement of technology. Moreover, other applications of anti-reflective coatings include high-resolution display systems as well and they offer high levels of protection from mechanical damage, such as cracking to several electronic displays. Furthermore, there is increasing adoption of anti-reflective covering across end-user industries including automotive, medical, solar power, and military and defense. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the market. Therefore, it is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
Focusing on Using Renewable Energy Sources to Drive Market Growth
Globally, due to the growing demand for a renewable source of electricity, the market for anti-reflective coatings is expected to grow in line with the global installation of solar panels. As the need for energy and the desire to reduce reliance on fossil fuels rise, the market is likely to change. It is normal practice to apply anti-reflective coatings on solar PV panel surfaces. As a result, the market for solar PV is not increasing as quickly as the market for anti-reflective coatings.
Market Segmentation
Eyewear is Projected to Emerge as the Largest Segment
The eyewear segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market. The primary factor supporting the segment's growth includes the increasing demand for anti-reflective eyeglasses that enhance visual comfort and reduce glare. The widespread use of anti-reflective coatings in both prescription and non-prescription eyewear has been a key driver, appealing to consumers seeking improved visual clarity and aesthetics.
Vacuum Deposition Segment to Hold a Considerable Market Share
Vacuum deposition technology involves a variety of processes that deposit layers of the required material onto the optical surface. Vacuum deposition works at temperatures below atmospheric pressure. Vacuum deposition technology is primarily used for the application of anti-reflective coatings due to its extremely low environmental impact and maximum versatility. Vacuum deposition offers several advantages, such as creating an ecologically clean and reproducible environment for the process. Vacuum deposition demonstrates the versatility of the coating process and requires minimal coating time.
The global anti-reflective coatings market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
North America to Exhibit Fastest CAGR
North America is estimated to exhibit a growth over the forecast period. North America comprises the US, Canada, and Mexico. The US dominates the North American regional market. Regarding volume, the US electronics market is the most significant globally and one of the most promising future markets. It is also projected that this market will maintain its leadership during the projection period due to the usage of cutting-edge technology, a surge in the number of R&D facilities, and rising consumer demand.
Asia-Pacific Holds Major Market Share
Among all the regions, Asia-Pacific holds a significant share owing to the growing demand for semiconductors, electronics, and other manufacturing operations. China has the world's largest electronics production base, which includes electronic products, such as smartphones, TVs, wires, cables, portable computing devices, gaming systems, and other personal electronic devices, and recorded the highest growth in the electronics segment. The country serves the domestic demand for electronics and exports electronic output to other countries. According to the most recent five-year plan published in 2020, solar power generation capacity installations should increase annually by nearly 85 GW, which is roughly twice the country's present rate. China has lofty plans to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
The major companies serving the global anti-reflective coatings market include Carl Zeiss AG, DuPont de Nemours, Inc., EssilorLuxottica, and HOYA Corporation, among others. The market players are increasingly focusing on business expansion and product development by applying strategies such as collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in February 2022, Zygo Corporation, a company engaged in manufacturing optical metrology and optical components, announced the opening of a new office in Italy, building upon its extensive network of offices and partnerships throughout Europe for expanding its business, including anti-reflective coatings.
