Report Description<br />
<strong>Flexible</strong> electronics, popularly known as flex circuits, have created a vibrant market since the<br />
past few years. They find a wide range of applications in healthcare <strong>and</strong> medical, wearable<br />
electronics, automotive, mobile devices, consumer electronics, military <strong>and</strong> defence, <strong>and</strong><br />
biometrics, <strong>and</strong> continue to transform the way the electronics are being used <strong>and</strong> made<br />
conventionally. The global market of flexible electronics, though currently in its developing<br />
stage, is predicted to gain momentum in the near future <strong>and</strong> grow at a double digit CAGR over<br />
the forecast period <strong>2014</strong>-<strong>2020</strong>.<br />
In addition to offering transformational advantages in terms of product shape, weight, <strong>and</strong><br />
durability, flex circuits also provide 3D configurations to product designs. Flex circuits have also<br />
held significant impact on allied industries, including wearable electronics, smart medical<br />
devices, cell phones, connectors, <strong>and</strong> IoT.<br />

Global <strong>Flexible</strong> <strong>Electronics</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Key Drivers<br />
Superiority of Compact, <strong>Flexible</strong> Devices<br />
As consumer devices are turning more compact retaining their smarter <strong>and</strong> more integrated<br />
functioning, the dem<strong>and</strong> for flex circuits is anticipated to escalate.
Report Description<br />
Flex circuits are printed on ultra-thin substrates such as plastic, which impart them the foldable,<br />
rollable, <strong>and</strong> bendable characteristics without affecting the functionality.<br />
Preference to Light Weight, Portable Devices<br />
Consumers are increasingly preferring light weight devices over conventional ones, for the<br />
convenience of portability. <strong>Flexible</strong> electronics are formed on Kapton or similar materials, which<br />
carry more than 70% of their weight <strong>and</strong> offer immense flexibility. This is another key property<br />
that pushes the dem<strong>and</strong> for flex circuits in the market.<br />

Higher Energy Efficiency<br />
Devices based on the flexible electronics technology consume lesser energy compared to<br />
conventional electronic devices, <strong>and</strong> generate lesser heat while being used. This property is<br />
crucial in popularising flex circuits in the market.<br />
Growing Use of Consumer Electronic Devices<br />
Consumers are increasingly using devices such as smartphones, smart glasses, smart watches,<br />
<strong>and</strong> e-book or newspapers, which is propelling the dem<strong>and</strong> for flexible electronics.
Report Description<br />
However, the complexity of circuit assembly <strong>and</strong> higher costs are foreseen to be the biggest<br />
barriers to the mass adoption of flex circuits.<br />

Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, <strong>and</strong> Philippines. Current <strong>and</strong> Upcoming Application Trends<br />
Flex circuits have been serving novel applications in medical <strong>and</strong> healthcare sector since the past<br />
few years. <strong>Flexible</strong> organic electronics can be used in organ implants in the near future, owing to<br />
their high compatibility with major biological systems.<br />
Bendable smartphones are predicted to be the future of smartphone industry.<br />
Research on the applications of flexible electronics in building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) is<br />
in progress, <strong>and</strong> is anticipated to the drive the market over the forecast period.<br />
The applications of flexible electronics in manufacturing flexible, non-breakable, waterproof<br />
computing displays is expected to attract major revenue opportunities in the near future.<br />
Research has indicated that the flexible electronics technology is highly suitable for signage<br />
boards.
Report Description<br />
Moreover, the technology can be used to incorporate multiple functions in a single device such<br />
as microphones, speakers, <strong>and</strong> batteries.<br />
Key Players: <strong>Flexible</strong> <strong>Electronics</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />
The dominant players in the global flexible electronics market include LG Corporation, Samsung<br />
<strong>Electronics</strong>, PARC, Inc., Cymbet Corporation, <strong>and</strong> Solar Frontier. Apple <strong>and</strong> its iPhone screen<br />
supplier LG <strong>Electronics</strong> might launch the arrival of a new, ultrathin, low-power iPhone with<br />
flexible OLED screen, some where between 2017 <strong>and</strong> 2018. However, LG has already launched a<br />
smartphone that can be bent to a certain degree – G Flex2, in 2015. Recently in 2016, Samsung<br />
has filed two patents with the United States Patent <strong>and</strong> Trademark Office (USPTO), for an<br />
"artificial muscle" system, allowing smartphones to bend in a variety of shapes without getting<br />
damaged.
