Dry Coating (Commissioned) Market in Japan: Key Research Findings 2012
Research Outline
Yano Research Institute has conducted a study on commissioned dry coating market with the following conditions:
1. Research period: From May to July, 2012
2. Research target: Processors of commissioned dry coating, dry coating users (auto-parts manufacturers and electronics-parts manufacturers) and etc.
3. Research methodologies: Face-to-face research by the expert researchers, surveys via telephone/email and literature research
What is commissioned dry coating market in this research?
Dry coating in this research indicates a method of affixing metal-based products on PET films and other base films. By applying precise layering of extremely thin films measured in nanometers, it adds multiple characteristics such as abrasion resistance and other tribological functions to the surface of products. This research defines commissioned dry coating market as the value for dry coating processed by the manufacturers of the following three types of films: CVD film, PVD film, and DLC film.
Summary of Research Findings
n Commissioned Dry Coating Market for FY2011 Estimated as \21,360 Million, 108.5% Y-o-Y
Commissioned dry coating market for FY2011 expanded to 21,360 million yen, 108.5% of the previous year based on the dry coating processing value of manufacturers. What should be noted is that PVD film has grown higher than expected, due to increasing awareness among users, which seems to stem from the rising demands caused by development and marketing of new films. DLC film, on the other hand, took a break after it had attained continuous rise.
n Commissioned Dry Coating Market for FY2015 may Expand to \28,156 Million
Commissioned dry coating market for FY2015 is expected to achieve 28,156 million yen. When viewed from the market by film type, CVD film is estimated to remain flat in spite of its strong presence. PVD film is likely to grow soundly due to development of new coating for particular application purposes. DLC film is expected to rise higher than other films because of growing demands for auto parts, machine sliding parts and medical equipments, in addition to emerging demands from environmental and energy-related areas.
