The Global Flexible Display Market was valued at USD 12.2 Bn in 2020 is expected to reach USD 86.1 Bn by 2027, with a growing CAGR of 32.2% during the forecast period.
A flexible display is a visual output surface that is designed with the purpose to resist being folded, bent, and twisted. Flexible displays are beneficial in allowing the device to be stored in a smaller space, like a pocket while offering a screen size that is more enjoyable for the display of media.
The superior capabilities provided through flexible displays in terms of portability, non-fragility, and weight, make them an appealing alternative for customer electronics manufacturers. Furthermore, the adoption of Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) based flexible displays is witnessing an exponential increase with the rise in high-definition content and high-performance applications. Moreover, the high growth of the smart wearable market is accelerating the flexible display market demand.
In addition, an increase in demand for flexible displays from healthcare and automotive among other industries is anticipated to create growth opportunities for the key producers operating in the market. Automotive manufacturers focus on integrating flexible displays in automotive interiors. For instance, in May 2019, Audi AG and Samsung Corporation entered into a strategic partnership to promote the Audi Prologue A9 Prototype, a concept car by the former.
