Global TFT LCD Panels Market to Reach 4.6 Billion Units by 2015, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) April 7, 2010 -- Thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT LCD) is a type of active-matrix LCD that utilizes the TFT technology for improving image quality. Globally, the TFT LCD supply chain and manufacturing facilities are primarily concentrated in China, Japan, Taiwan, and Korea. Japan and Pacific Rim regions comprise the most lucrative markets for flat panel display products. China is one of the leading markets for large area TFT LCD panels, especially in terms of volume. The demand is mainly driven by the robust electronics and IT industries of China.

In recent years, global economic downturn had its toll on the TFT LCD panels market, as sales of consumer electronic goods such as LCD TVs, computers and mobile phones, witnessed stagnation across all major regions. Demand is expected to pick up in future, as the economy recovers from recession and new markets emerge for digital TV as well as flat panel TV transition. The impending growth can be attributed to inventory refills and rush of client orders.

Emergence of new products, including DPF displays, e-book readers, and net books, is expected to act as the key growth driver for the sector as stated by the new market research report on TFT LCD Panels market (http://www.strategyr.com/TFT_LCD_Panels_Market_Report.asp). The usage of 16 x 9 inch panels is expected to increase in monitors and notebook PCs, primarily due to the growing demand for next-generation content formats such as high-definition (HD) movie playback, Blue Ray DVD, and games, in addition to the better economies of scale in the fabs.
