Anti-counterfeit Automobile Packaging Market – Positive Outlook for Industry Opportunities & Trends

Counterfeiting or forging is a worldwide phenomenon which not only affects the growth of industries but also affects the end-users of their products. Companies are becoming progressively conscious of the potential negative effects of counterfeit parts in their supply chain, which affect the sales revenue of the company. Besides, since the quality of the counterfeit product does not match with that of the original product, it also affects the brand image of the company. The forged components are so well developed that they are undetectable in normal conditions and thereby find application in critical areas, such as in automobile spare parts and maintenance. The usage of such components results in poor product quality and thus increases consumer safety concerns, which leads to the deterioration of the brand image of the concerned company.

Wafer Level Package Dielectrics Market – Global Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook 2024

Wafer Level Package (WLP) is a type of packaging used in the semiconductor industry for the packaging of Integrated Circuits (ICs) as it is very fragile in nature and highly susceptible to contamination, which can lead to improper working of the IC. WLP finds application in the ICs used in portable consumer electronic devices; for instance, smart phones. Increasing consumer demand for technologically advanced mobile devices that are capable of performing an array of functions in a single small-end product is a major factor propelling demand for wafer level packaging technology as compared to the conventional mode of packaging in case of semiconductors, thus boosting growth of the market for wafer level package dielectrics further. Comparatively, the low cost associated with the wafer level packaging as compared to the conventional packaging technology used in case of semiconductor packaging is also a major factor expected to boost growth of the market for wafer level package dielectrics over the forecast period.
The wafer level package dielectrics market is expected to expand at a healthy CAGR over the forecast period, and the major driving factor responsible for growth of the wafer level package dielectrics market is the rising demand for compact electronic devices with high performance and cost effective packaging in the semiconductor packaging industry. In case of conventional packaging, such as die level packaging, with the variation in size of the ICs, the cost of packaging becomes more as compared to the production cost of the ICs. On the contrary, wafer level packaging is much more cost-efficient as compared to the conventional packaging or the production cost of the ICs.
The technological advancements in IC design & production are also, to an extent, propelling growth of the wafer level package dielectrics market currently. The wafer level packaging technology has certain perks over the traditional packaging technology, such as minimized electricity consumption and long battery life in case of mobile phones, and its compactness helps manufacturers design and develop ultra-thin mobile phones. However, fluctuations in some of the physical properties of the technology, such as the coefficient of thermal expansion of the materials of wafer with respect to the material of ICs, are considered as a drawback of the wafer packaging technology, which in turn might restraint growth of the market for wafer level package dielectrics.
The global wafer level package dielectrics market is segmented on the basis of type of wafer level packaging, application, and region. On the basis of type, the global market for wafer level package dielectrics is segmented into FOWLP (Fan-Out Wafer Level Package), FIWLP (Fan-in Wafer Level Package), FIWLCSP (Fan-in Wafer Level Chip Scale Package), flip chip, and 3DFOWLP.

The glass is the most prominently used material for the manufacturing of the pharmaceutical cartridges. The segment holds the major share among the material type segment. This is due to the chemical resistivity of the glass, as glass is highly resistive to pharmaceutical drugs for longer period of time. Type 1 borosilicate glass holds higher market share from its counterparts.
The key trend in the pharmaceutical cartridges market is that the manufacturers are shifting their preference from glass to plastics pharmaceutical cartridges. This is due to the structural issues which occur with the usage of glass for a long period of time. The glass starts degrading from the edges and mixes with the drug solution. Further, glass pharmaceutical cartridges requires higher protection while shipping and usage, due to high chances of breakage f material. Thus, to overcome these issues the global manufacturers started using COC and COP material for manufacturing of pharmaceutical cartridges.
The global market for pharmaceutical cartridges is segmented into material type and capacity type. On the basis of material type, the global pharmaceutical cartridges market is segmented into glass and plastic.  The glass segment is further segmented into Type I, Type II, and Type III glass type. The plastic segmented is segmented into cyclic olefin copolymer (COC), cyclic olefin polymer (COP), polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP).
The key restating factor for the growth of the pharmaceutical cartridges market is consumers focus towards alternative drugs such as Homeopathy and Ayurveda. Increasing incidence of chronic diseases is attributed to sedentary lifestyle and significant increase in geriatric population. However, over the last few years, there has been an increase in healthcare awareness. As such, complementary and alternative medicines is gaining wide prominence among users. From past few years, alternative treatment such as Homeopathy and Ayurveda captured greater share of overall healthcare treatment market. The major reason for increase in the preference for the Ayurveda drug is due to its zero side effects.
