Global LED packaging output growth rate picks up to 5%

The global LED packaging industry is mainly concentrated in mainland China, Japan, Taiwan, the United States, Europe, South Korea and other countries and regions. From the LED industry development point of view, the first phase of Japan, the United States, Europe and other manufacturers rely on first-mover advantage, with technological advantages and equipment advantages, become the world's first LED packaging industry center; the second stage of Taiwan and South Korea has a complete consumer electronics Industrial chain, the segment of the division of labor is clear, and the rapid rise; currently in the third stage, the Chinese mainland is to undertake global industrial transfer, while benefiting from the cost advantage and strong downstream product market demand. In recent years it continued to grow, and has become important role in the world LED packaging production base.

Major manufacturers include Japan's Nichia and Toyoda Gosei, Cree in the United States, and Philips Lumileds and Osram. The above five manufacturers have more complete industrial chain, and have a strong technical strength in the upper reaches of the industrial chain, monopolized in high-end products market. Nichia Chemical has been in the world's leading position, Taiwan billion light ranked No. 6, China Wood Linsen ranked No. 9.

2017 is expected to global LED package output value of about 15.3 billion US dollars, the growth rate to 5%. According to LED inside survey and finishing, 2015 global LED packaging and module output value of 14.3 billion US dollars, 2016 annual output is expected to increase to 14.7 billion US dollars, the growth rate 2.6%. It’s estimated 2017 annual output value of up to 15.3 billion US dollars, the annual growth rate of about 5%.

China's LED market has experienced rapid growth for many years, especially 2013 to 2014 for more than 30% of the two years of ultra-high-speed growth in 2015. The market showed weakness and the global macro environment, and the overall performance of China's LED industry in 2015 Downturn.

At the same time the upper reaches of the 2016 LED chip prices stabilized, a small number of manufacturers began to enhance the price of LED chips, LED packaging prices began to stabilize. But to consider the slow growth of the LED industry into the period, and backlighting and other parts of the application areas are replaced by OLED and other new technologies. LED industry structure is expected to become increasingly obvious.
