Market Analysis

The global cover glass market is being driven by the increasing smartphone consumption, combined with an increasing need to protect the fragile smartphone display screen. Cover glass is being preferred because of their better damage-resistance capabilities and greater durability than traditional soda-lime glass. It is increasingly being used in vehicle interiors with a growing inclusion of smart displays within automobiles. Thus, it is being used in automotive cockpits, touch panels, and other automotive systems like navigations systems and driving information displays. The growth in the sales of smartwatches since the launch of Apple Watch in 2016 is also propelling the growth of the cover glass industry. The shipments of smartwatches witnessed an increase of 48% in units in Q1 of 2017, as compared to Q1 2016.

The trend towards larger smartphones displays is also driving the industry growth. The smartphone screen industry will be dominated by the 5-6 inches screen in the coming years. The smartphone displays are taking up more screen space by stretching to the edge of the smartphone devices and eliminating the bezel or the border between the sides of a device and the display screen.
