Regarding material structure, Thin-Film Encapsulation is exceptionally challenging; subsequently, numbers of continuous research are still going with a plan to optimize both organic and inorganic materials. Thin-Film Encapsulation also reduces the cost of electronic devices by replacing glass substrate material, which resulted in light and thin display.

On the basis of deposition technology, the global thin-film encapsulation market is segmented into the inorganic layer and organic layer. The inorganic layer is sub-segmented into PECVD, ALD, and others. Similarly, the organic layer is sub-segmented into inkjet printing and vacuums thermal printing.

The organic layer segment is expected to dominate the market in the above segmentation owing to the wide use of thin-film encapsulation in inkjet printing and an increase in demand for inkjet printing from various sectors like commercial, education, etc.

On the basis of the application, the global thin-film encapsulation market can be segmented into a flexible OLED display, flexible OLED lighting, and thin-film photovoltaic. The flexible OLED display is expected to dominate the market in the above segmentation owing to a wide application in the automobile sector helps to increase in thin-film encapsulation market. The flexible OLED display is more effective as compared to incandescent lighting.

Most of the automobile company worked together with the lighting manufacturer to create OLED lighting solution for vehicles. Also, owing to the wide use of OLED display in the consumer electronics sector escalates the thin-film encapsulation market.

The factor that is expected to drive the growth of the global thin-film encapsulation market is thin-film encapsulation utilizing inkjet printing technology and quick reception of flexible OLED display for cell phones and smart wearables altogether drive the market development.

The increasing investment in the OLED manufacturing facilities and for research activities and increasing use of thin-film solar cells are probably going to give worthwhile chances to the market players. Increasing adoption of OLED lighting solution for vehicles which leads to more investment from the automobile sector in thin-film encapsulation technology.

The factor that is expected to restrain the growth of the global thin-film encapsulation market there is continuous development in flexible glass technology, which leads to hampering the thin-film encapsulation market.
