Ultra-thin glass, as the name suggests, is
a glass of very low thickness, ranging from micrometers to a few
millimeters. Ultra-thin glass is thinner than a human hair. It is
used in numerous applications such as a carrier for semiconductor
processing, tablets, PCs, and CCTV camera devices, semiconductor
processing for MEMS, CMOS image sensors, IR cut-off filters for
mobile, advanced packaging and LEDs, flat panel digital x-ray
detectors, electrochromatic windows and mirrors, substrates for
active matrix flat panel displays, etc., in end-user industries such
as electronics & semiconductors, automotive, biotech etc.
Currently, ultra-thin glass is commonly used as a thin film
transistor display or liquid crystal display, in the electronics
industry, for devices such as computers, televisions, mobile phones,
etc. It is also employed as a substrate in solar and automotive
applications.
Ultra-thin is widely utilized due to its
properties such as uniform surface flatness, weather resistance,
electrical insulation, thermal & chemical stability, flexibility,
etc. Moreover, usage of ultra-thin glass provides the user with
advantages such it can be employed for flexible & non-flat
formats, supports low weight designs, adds an anti-reflection or
electromagnetic interference shielding to the final product assembly,
etc. Ultra-thin glass is also used in the building & construction
industry.

However, it is at a very preliminary stage,
and its viability in the building and construction industry is being
explored. Ultra-thin glass is obtained as a thin sheet from molten
glass, which requires extremely precise temperature control. Float
and fusion are the two processes that are widely employed for the
production of ultra-thin glass.
In terms of process, the ultra-thin glass market
can be segmented into float and fusion. The float process is majorly
employed to manufacture commodity flat panel glass for architectural
applications as well as for automotive windscreens. The fusion
process produces a highly clean, fresh, and spotless glass, without
any effect of the molten tin bath. Both processes are conducted by
precise power and temperature control, thus providing a conducive
environment to produce flawless molten glass. Currently, the market
is dominated by the fusion process, and is anticipated to continue
its dominance during the forecast period.
In terms of application, the market can be
segmented into electronics, semiconductor, automotive, and biotech.
The electronics segment can be further sub-segmented into
opto-electronics, and consumer electronics. Ultra-thin glass is
widely utilized for the manufacture of flat panel displays in
electronic devices such as computers, cell phones, televisions, etc.
The latest flat screen mobile phone displays with Gorilla Glass
screens are made of ultra-thin glass. Currently, the market is
dominated by the electronics industry and is anticipated to continue
the same during the forecast period. The electronics segment is
anticipated to expand at a significant growth rate during the
forecast period.
Geographically, the global ultra-thin glass market
is dominated by Asia Pacific, owing to the increasing demand for
consumer electronics in the region. Rising standard of living and
disposable income of people of developing countries such as China &
India, due to rapid economic & industrial development, is driving
the demand for consumer electronics. This, in turn, is boosting the
ultra-thin glass market in the region. The ultra-thin glass market in
Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at steady growth rate during
the forecast period.
Key players operating in the global ultra-thin
glass market include SCHOTT, Corning, Central Glass, Asahi Glass,
Nippon Electric Glass, CSG Holding, and Nippon Sheet Glass.
