E-Paper Display Market Statistics - 2030
The global e-paper display market size was valued at $1.6 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $9.5 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 17.3% from 2021 to 2030.
Electronic paper display (EPD) is a significant development in the display technology owing to its advanced features, such as readability in direct light (indoor as well as outdoor ambience), low power consumption, flexibility, durability, lightweight, and convenient composition. It is also known as bistable display that refers to the retention of content on the screen even when the power is turned off.
Electronic paper display presents itself as a practical fusion of physics, chemistry, and electronics. The ink utilized in this display technology is termed as e-ink, with chemical composition similar to the pigment used in the conventional printing industry. Instead of being deposited on paper, this ink takes the form of tiny capsules (about the diameter of the human hair sandwiched between two electrodes) to produce a monochrome result or sometimes a result with limited colors. Two-pigment ink system is used for monochromatic EPDs, whereas for applications using multiple colors like electronic shelf labels, three-pigment ink system is used.
The e-paper display market growth across various applications is attributed to factors, such as ongoing technological advancements in e-paper screen, positive environmental impact owing to very less energy consumption as compared to other display technologies, and increase in application areas of large e-paper display. The advantages offered by these paper displays in terms of readability, user experience, energy consumption, and manufacturing cost, are some of the factors that drive the global electronic paper display market. However, lack of awareness, low refresh rate, and absence of wide color pallet along with video output limitation restrict the overall e-paper display industry growth.
Segment Overview
The e-paper display market is segmented on the basis of product, application, and geography. The products segment is classified into auxiliary displays, e-readers, electronic shelf labels, and others.
The application segment includes consumer & wearable electronics, institutional, media & entertainment, retail, and others. Geographically, the e-paper display market trends are analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
Top Impacting Factors
The significant impacting factors in the e-paper display industry include, technological innovation and ongoing advancement, growing application areas, and environmental impact, which impact the growth of the market. However, limitations related to color pallet and videoutput, and low refresh rate of e-paper display are expected to hinder the growth of the e-paper display market. Conversely, increase in participation of key players and growth in the retail automation industry are projected to offer remunerative e-paper display market opportunities. Each of these factors are anticipated to have a definite impact on the market during the forecast period.
Covid-19 Impact Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 significantly affected the electronics and semiconductor sectors. Businesses and manufacturing units across various countries were closed, owing to increase in number of COVID-19 cases, and were estimated to remain closed in 2021. Furthermore, partial or complete lockdown disrupted global supply chains, posing challenges for manufactures to reach customers.
The COVID-19 pandemic impacts the society and overall economy across the globe. The impact of this outbreak grows day-by-day, affecting the overall business globally. The crisis is creating uncertainty in the stock market, falling business confidence, massive slowing of supply chain, and increasing panic among customer segments.
Asian and European countries under lockdowns suffered major loss of business and revenue due to the shutdown of manufacturing units. The operations of the production and manufacturing industries were heavily impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which negatively impact the growth of the e-paper display market outlook.
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the electronics sector, as the production facility halted, which, in turn, resulted in decrease in demand for electronics and semiconductor products in industries. Its major impacts include large-scale manufacturing interruption across Europe and interruption in Chinese parts exports, which are expected to hinder the e-paper display market opportunity.
