Copper Coated Films Market

Copper Coated Films Market Overview

The global copper coated films market held a market revenue of US$ 3 Bn in 2021. The demand for copper coated films is expected to exceed a valuation of US$ 9 Bn, exhibiting growth at a CAGR of around 7%-9% during the forecast period (2022-2032).

Copper foils are extensively used in the electronics industry for providing lamination and insulation to the electronic products. However, due to the high cost, the demand for an alternative such as copper coated films is increasing.

End users are providing variations in conductivity which is increasing the use of copper coated films owing to its ability to form conductive layers of different thickness. This is projected to spur the sales of copper coated films in electrical & electronics and industrial sectors.

Which are the Key Trends Boosting the Copper Coated Films Market?

Growing application of copper coated films for lamination, decoration, and insulation is projected to create lucrative growth prospects for the market. These copper coated films are also used in semiconductor systems or printed circuit boards.

Hence, increasing application of copper coated films in manufacturing and automotive industries is fueling the demand in the market. Hence, surging demand for semiconductors will tangentially bolster the growth in the market.

Besides this, glossy appearance and higher bond strength provided by copper coated films in labelling application will drive the market.

Which are the Factors Limiting the Sales of Copper Coated Films Market?

Use of aluminum foils and copper foils due to their bond strength, flexibility, and conductivity is increasing in the automotive, aerospace, military, and manufacturing sectors. This is expected to limit the sales of copper coated films in the near future.

Also, the fluctuating prices of copper and lack of availability and supply in the developing economies might hinder the growth in the market. Furthermore, changing need for high battery energy density, conductivity, and other features to enhance the efficiency and durability of various equipment is projected to inhibit the demand for copper coated films.

Will the Demand for Copper Coated Films Upsurge in North America?

According FMI, North America is expected to dominate the global copper coated films market, with the U.S. spearheading the growth in the region.

Use of artificial intelligence (AI) chips and 3D sensors in smart TVs, smartphones, and wearable devices is increasing in the U.S. Advent of smart technology and introduction of augmented reality experience is projected to drive the market in the region.

Subsequently, increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and presence of leading EV manufacturers such as Tesla is likely to create bankable opportunities for the market.
