Market Segmentation
By Category Analysis:
The global physical vapor deposition (PVD) market is segmented into equipment, materials, and services. The equipment segment, comprising thin film deposition devices for thermal evaporation, sputtering, and arc vapor deposition, dominates the market. These are widely used in industries such as solar, microelectronics, data storage, and medical. Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the fastest growth, driven by the rising demand for high-performance coatings offering superior thickness, uniformity, and adhesion.
By Application Analysis:
The microelectronics segment held the largest share in 2023, accounting for over one-third of the market. PVD is extensively used in device fabrication and plating seed layers, providing hard, uniform, and temperature-resistant coatings that enhance microelectronics performance. Rapid industrialization in China, India, Japan, the U.S., Germany, and Brazil supports segment growth.
DRIVING FACTORS
Increasing Demand for Eco-friendly Coating Processes to Promote Growth
According to Eurostat, the industrial sector accounts for more than half of the total emissions in Europe. The rising concern over greenhouse emissions has propelled the demand for environmentally safe products. For instance, the physical vapor deposition process adopts eco-friendly products such as titanium nitride (TiN) and chromium nitride (CrN). These materials are coated on corrosion-resistant electroplating and further enhance the finish of the surface. In addition, they offer superior performance without the risk of environmental hazards. Therefore, owing to this, the high demand for eco-friendly coating processes across several industrial applications is expected to favor the growth of the market during the forecast period.
REGIONAL INSIGHTS
Asia-Pacific – The region stood at USD 10.25 billion in 2020 and is expected to hold the highest position in the market during the forecast period. This is owing to the increasing consumption of medical equipment and solar products in countries such as China. Besides, the presence of eminent physical vapor deposition solution providers will favor regional growth during the forecast period.
North America – The region is expected to experience significant growth owing to the well-established supply chain network and distributorship in the region. Moreover, the increasing adoption of the physical vapor deposition process in the manufacturing of solar panels and cutting tools will boost the growth of the market between 2021 and 2028.
