According to the Market Statsville Group (MSG), the Global Fine Metal Mask (FMM) for OLED Displays Market size is expected to grow from USD 2,143.1 million in 2023 to USD 12,311.8 million by 2033, at a CAGR of 31.5% from 2023 to 2033.
A Fine Metal Mask (FMM) is a component in the manufacturing process of OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) displays. OLED technology relies on the deposition of organic materials to create individual pixels that emit light when an electric current is applied. The FMM is a tool used during this process to pattern and define the sub-pixel structures in the display. The FMM is made of a thin metal material, such as stainless steel, and contains micro-scale openings that pattern the pixel layout on the OLED screen. These openings enable the organic materials removal at precise locations, which creates red, green, and blue sub-pixels that combine to form full-color images. The FMM ensures that each sub-pixel is accurately placed, resulting in sharp and vibrant images on the OLED display. FMM technology is used for the resolution and color accuracy of OLED screens, thereby creating high-quality displays in applications such as smartphones, televisions, and monitors.
The growing popularity of OLED technology is the major driving factor for the growth of fine metal masks (FMM) in the OLED display market. Consumers prefer OLED displays as it has vibrant colors, high contrast ratios, thin and flexible form factors, and energy efficiency. Further, the growing demand for consumer electronics, such as smartphones and televisions has significantly accelerated the demand for OLED screens. According to the International Data Corporation, around 1.37 billion units of global smartphone shipments were witnessed in 2021 and is expected to grow to over 1.54 billion in 2025. This growth is attributed mainly to South Asia, the Middle East, and African emerging countries. Further, the global used smartphone market exhibited a total of 225.4 million units in 2020 which was a 9.2% increase as compared to 206.5 million units in 2019. The demand for refurbished and as-Is smartphones is expected to grow by over 351.6 million units in 2025. Further, the growing demand for higher display resolutions and pixel densities is creating an opportunity for OLED manufacturers to produce smaller, more densely packed pixels, resulting in increasing demand for fine metal masks (FMM) in the OLED display market.
With the rapidly growing demand for the OLED display market, the fine metal masks (FMM) in the OLED display market face several restraints such as the cost associated with FMM production, availability of alternatives (MiniLED, micro LED), and supply chain disruptions. The rapid advancement of alternative display technologies, such as MicroLED displays and Mini-LED displays may divert investments and attention from OLED panels, impacting the market’s growth. Also, the disruptions in the supply chain due to material shortages, fluctuations in raw material prices, and others can hinder market growth. The stricter regulations and sustainability requirements on OLED display manufacturing, certainly increase costs and restrict demand for FMMs. However, the ongoing technological advancements of OLED technology into new applications, such as automotive displays, wearable devices, and augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) headsets, are quintessential opportunities for the fine metal mask (FMM) for OLED displays market.
