Optical Coatings: Technologies and Global Markets | ReportsnReports

| comments

This BCC study analyzes the status of global markets for optical coatings.  Optical coatings may be devices, but more typically are a value-added feature of an optical element such as a lens or a digital display.  Many elements are fabricated and coated in volume and thus have low prices and margins.
Innovation is critical for revenue growth in the coatings industry.  The markets with the highest margins and fastest growth for coatings are new applications, where coatings offer a new advantage, and areas where the coating designer and processor may have an advantage.  Mass production of devices drives down prices and trims margins.
Custom coating design opportunities support a fragmented but consolidating industry.  The economic recession of 2007 to 2009 lead to larger, better capitalized firms buying out smaller entities.  The military market remains an important one for optics due to the advent of remote warfare means such as unmanned vehicles and robots.  Machine vision optics for the semiconductor industry remains a high margin market.
The miniaturization in medical procedures offers opportunities for innovative coatings.  The transportation applications are growing as vehicle designs include cameras, displays and other optical systems.  Growth in the telecom sector continues to be slow as the extension of fiber toward the end user remains slow.  Coatings for solar panels represent a growing market.
