Conformal Coating Market by Type (Acrylic, Epoxy, Parylene), End-Use Industry (Aerospace & Defense, Automotive, Consumer Electronics) - Global Forecast 2024-2030

The Conformal Coating Market size was estimated at USD 1.03 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 1.10 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 6.89% to reach USD 1.64 billion by 2030.

A conformal coating is a thin, protective layer of material applied to printed circuit boards (PCBs) and other electronic components to safeguard them against environmental hazards, such as moisture, dust, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations. The continuous rise in demand for reliable & miniaturized electronic components across multiple sectors has fueled research into advanced materials capable of offering superior protection against environmental degradation. However, fluctuating raw material prices and high capital investments required to set up manufacturing facilities impact the market growth. Stringent regulations imposed by governments globally on hazardous substances & volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions also cause limitations for product penetration. Growing awareness about environmental sustainability has encouraged OEMs to adopt eco-friendly coating materials. New opportunities within the conformal coating market are being driven by the emergence of next-generation technologies like the internet of things (IoT), advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), 5G network infrastructure, renewable energy systems, and electric vehicles. These technologies are highly dependent on reliable electronic components, thus creating a substantial demand for conformal coatings.
