Global Anti-static Packaging Market 2016-2020

Overview of the global anti-static packaging market

Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global anti-static packaging market will grow steadily during the next four years and post a CAGR of more than 8% by 2020. This market research analysis identifies the increasing miniaturization of electronic devices as one of the primary growth factors for this market. An increase in the demand for mobility in electronic devices has resulted in the adoption of smaller devices, which in turn, led to the miniaturization of semiconductor ICs. The adoption of advanced technologies such as 3D ICs and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) will help in the development of miniaturized and user-friendly electronic devices. These compact electronic devices require smaller and densely-built semiconductors and ICs. Since dense PCBs have more chances of tribocharging, there will be a rising demand for anti-static packaging products.

Focusing on improving the quality of life using technology and efficient services, governments around the globe are increasingly concentrating on the development of smart cities. Smart cities use sensors to monitor and control different aspects such as irrigation systems, bus networks, traffic conditions, and the brightness of public lighting systems. This will increase the demand for anti-static devices and in turn, will drive the demand for anti-static wrapping material.

Competitive landscape and key vendors

Due to the presence of various regional and small vendors, the market appears to be fragmented. The presence of most of the anti-static packaging material vendors is limited to certain geographies. The competitive environment in the market is quite intense and vendors have started following M&A strategies to sustain market competition. Major vendors follow M&A to expand their global reach both in the developed countries and the developing regions. Established vendors are currently developing and offering anti-static packaging materials for the rising middle class population in the developing economies and are strengthening their reach by acquiring reputed regional vendors.

The leading vendors in the market are -

• 3M
• BASF
• Dow Chemical

The other prominent vendors in the market are DaklaPack, Desco Industries, Dou Yee, GWP, Kao-Chia Plastics, Miller Supply, Polyplus Packaging, TIP Corporation, and Uline.

Segmentation by end-users and analysis of the anti-static packaging market

• Aerospace and defense
• Automotive
• Communication network infrastructure
• Consumer electronics
