LED Materials Market - Global Forecast to 2021 - New Market Report

Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 06/05/2017 --LED Materials Market by Material Type (Substrate, Wafer, Epitaxy, Phosphor), Application (General Lighting (Residential, Industrial, Outdoor), Automotive Lighting (Interior, Exterior), Backlighting), and Region - Global Forecast to 2021

"Growing use of LED materials in general lighting is a prime factor driving the growth of the LED materials market."

The global LED materials market is projected to reach USD 12.55 billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 9.9% from 2016 to 2021. The growth is fueled by the rising demand for LED materials for LED for residential LED applications under the general lighting application segment.

Volatility in raw material prices resulting in lower demand for LED materials and high initial cost of LEDs can curtail the growth of the LED materials market.

"Wafers is the fastest-growing material type segment during the forecast period"
