Global Rolled Copper Foil Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Global Rolled Copper Foil Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

With high appeal in a wide range of industrial products, copper is viewed as a very versatile material. Copper foils are sheets of copper that are obtained via hammering, electrolysis, and rolling. Copper foils are produced by very specific manufacturing processes within the foil mill which include both hot and cold rolling. They are available in different units of thickness depending on their application. In addition, rolled copper foil is more flexible than electrolytic copper foil, and has stable mechanical properties under high temperature conditions. It is an optimal material for high density mounting of electronic devices.

Market Overview:


The latest research study on the global Rolled Copper Foil market finds that the global Rolled Copper Foil market reached a value of USD 630.34 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 890.45 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.93% during the forecast period.

Marketing channel sales will be affected differently


The COVID-19 Outbreak has led to a decline in offline passenger flow, and the advantages of e-commerce companies have become prominent. During the epidemic prevention and control period, some Rolled Copper Foil enterprises did not carry out internet marketing and promotion for their business, so they encountered great resistance in undertaking business. For enterprises that fail to make good use of network promotion means, there is almost no market development during the epidemic period, and the original offline market development plan is disrupted, and the epidemic will face fierce market homogenization competition, which is expected to have a great impact on the company's business throughout the year.

Upstream and downstream interactions will lead to the disruption of business

The epidemic will have a short-term impact on Rolled Copper Foil industry, but it is relatively limited. Due to the impact of the epidemic, the production of raw materials and equipment procurement and transportation supply are difficult to be in place, and upstream enterprises affect the work schedule of downstream enterprises. Equipment manufacturing and product manufacturing enterprises in Rolled Copper Foil industry are affected to different degrees, and the production and delivery work may be delayed to some extent. Meanwhile, if it fails to meet the customer's delivery time requirements according to the contract, it may lead to the customer looking for another enterprise and lose business.

Increasing Demand

Due to the excellent physical and mechanical properties possessed by rolled copper foils such as elongation, tensile strength, high electroconductivity, and corrosion resistance, among others. The copper and copper alloy foils are widely used in an array of applications in the electronics and electrical industry such as FPC, cable wrapping, and building wiring. In line with rapid industrialization and urbanization, there is a substantial need for power supply, and to address the demand, more power transmission units are being installed. Thus, the increasing consumption of rolled copper foils in the power generation industry is expected to propel the demand for rolled copper foils. Also, the developing economies have witnessed substantial GDP growth in the recent past, which in turn has resulted in a rise in disposable income and increased consumer spending on leisure products and white goods. For instance, the demand for consumer electronics has witnessed significant growth in developing markets and consumers tend to spend a significant amount on different types of electronic devices such as smartphones, computers, and other consumer electronics. Thus, increased spending on consumer electronics will have positive growth prospects for rolled copper foils market.

Development of downstream industry-FPC industry

Rolled copper with excellent bending resistance can be applied to a flexible printed circuit board (FPC). Flexible printed wiring boards (hereinafter referred to as FPC) are used as wiring materials for electronic devices because they are thin and have excellent bendability. Furthermore, the FPC plant continues to expand and grow as electronic devices become lighter, shorter, and more sophisticated. FPC application fields are also expanding rapidly from conventional HDDs, digital cameras, etc., in recent years to LCDs and mobile phones. It is expected to contribute heavily to the Rolled Copper Foil markets growth on account of high demand for FPC connectors, board-to-board connectors, and other components.
