New NanoMarkets Report Projects OLED Lighting Market to Hit Revenues of $1.4 billion in 2019

Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has just published its latest forecasts of the OLED lighting market predicting a $1.4 billion market opportunity in 2019.

Glen Allen, Virginia (May 15, 2014) — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has just published its latest forecasts of the OLED lighting market predicting a $1.4 billion market opportunity in 2019. The report, “OLED Lighting Markets-2014” (Code Nano-721) notes that while the sector has foundered for the past few years it now appears to be worthy of some renewed optimism based on both on both improvements in OLED lighting panel performance and recent expansion of manufacturing facilities.

Details of the report, including a table of contents and downloadable slides are available at http://www.nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/oled-lighting-markets-2014.

A companion report titled OLED Materials Markets 2014 will be issued in early June. See http://www.nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/oled-materials-markets-2014.

Highlights:

OLEDs aren’t just for luxury lighting any more. The efficacy and luminance of OLED lighting panels are reaching levels where OLED lighting firms can claim that their products are truly energy efficient and have the brightness that make them a practical form of lighting for offices and homes. For example, LG Chem says that next year it will have 135 lm/W panels with 5,000 cd/m2 luminance.

Until recently, most of the output of the OLED lighting business was development kits for designers. However, in the next few years, revenues from kits will be rapidly overtaken by revenues from OLED luminaires, with revenues from OLED luminaires for homes reaching almost $400 million in sales by 2019 and revenues from OLED office luminaires reaching almost $380 million in the same year.

OLED capacity continues to grow. In the past three years, Osram and Philips have invested $25 million and $57 million respectively in setting up OLED production lines. Meanwhile, Konica Minolta is currently constructing an OLED mass production facility at an approximate investment of around $100 million.

By next year, worldwide capacity for OLED lighting panels is expected to be around 30 million panels. This number is expected to grow to almost 40 million by 2019. NanoMarkets believes that in the next five years there will be a major influx of low-cost (and possibly government subsidized) Chinese suppliers that will force down OLED lighting prices in a manner similar to what the solar panel industry has experienced.

About the Report:

This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the OLED lighting market, assesses its future potential and offers detailed eight-year forecasts for the OLED lighting business including volume (units and square meters shipped) and value projections of the following market segments: designer kits and related products, office and commercial lighting, residential lighting, non-automotive outdoor lighting, automotive lighting and customized installations.

The report also includes projections of manufacturing capacity for OLED lighting panels and an assessment of which geographic regions will prove the best customers for OLED lighting.

In addition, we examine the product development and marketing strategies of the leading and influential players in the OLED lighting sector, including both large and small lighting firms and the key OLED material suppliers. Among the firms discussed in this report are Acuity Brands, Audi, BASF, Blackbody, BJB, Cheil/Novaled, Dupont Teijin, ETAP Lighting, First-O-Light, Ford, Henkel, Kaneka, Konica Minolta, Ledon, LG Chem, Lumiotec, MC Pioneer, Merck, NEC Lighting, OLEDWorks, Orbotech, Osram, Philips, Pixelligent, Samsung, Sumitomo, UDC and WAC Lighting.

NanoMarkets Issues Latest Report on Market for OLED Lighting; Revises Forecasts Downward

NanoMarkets today announced the release of its report titled “OLED Lighting Market Forecast 2013.”

Glen Allen, Virginia – March 14, 2013 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced the release of its report titled “OLED Lighting Market Forecast 2013.” In its latest report, NanoMarkets has significantly lowered its previously released estimates on the future prospects for OLED lighting panels and luminaires. And while the firm estimates that the OLED lighting products business can still surpass $2 billion (USD) in revenues by the year 2020, a number of market and technical factors will need to be overcome for this market opportunity to fully emerge. Additional details about the report are available at: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/oled_lighting_market_forecast_2013.

From the Report:

Most of the industry’s observers and participants have been targeting the year 2016 as the year that OLED lighting was to really take off. Unfortunately though, in the past year the market showed no discernible technical advancements and from the manufacturing standpoint, there has been insufficient progress on bringing yields up and costs down to support OLED lighting’s entry into general illumination applications like office lighting. Production facilities remain insufficient and the economies within both Europe and Japan are severely dampening market prospects. Last but not least, the industry lacks a true market “champion” that will lead the business forward.

NanoMarkets sees one of three possible scenarios for the OELD lighting business.

Scenario 1: One or two “champion” firms will emerge (perhaps with government support), make substantial performance and process improvements, and sufficiently expand production capacity to bring costs down to a level that with finally enable penetration of general illumination markets. NanoMarkets believes that right now LG is THE firm to drive the market but also notes that China’s influence on the OLED lighting business has yet to be felt.

Scenario 2: If no champion emerges, costs stay high, and performance lags the competition then OLED lighting will be relegated to specialty, niche-only luxury lighting with a market value unlikely exceeding $500 million in revenues before the end of the decade. This will certainly lead to a large exodus from the business.

Scenario 3: Industry fails to attain any reasonable targets – cost or otherwise – and thus relegating the technology to the dustbin of abandoned “revolutionary” technologies. While NanoMarkets does not currently hold this position as the most likely, the industry’s failure to do more than offer future promises makes it a more sobering reality than anyone would have likely considered as recently as last year.

About the report:

Within its new report, NanoMarkets examines three possible scenarios for the OLED lighting business. It also assesses the product development and marketing strategies of the major players in the sector, including Philips, Osram, LG, Mitsubishi/Pioneer, PIOL, Novaled, Lumiotec, Kaneka, Visionox, Acuity Brands, LEDON OLED/Tridonic, First-o-Lite, WAC Lighting, GE, Samsung, Moser-Baer, and others.

The report contains detailed, eight-year forecasts for OLED lighting, at both the OLED panel and luminaire/fixture level, in both value ($ millions) and volume (both area and units) terms, broken out by application. OLED lighting applications covered are: samples and designer “kits”, luxury luminaires, large-scale installations, residential lighting, commercial lighting, and automotive lighting.

NanoMarkets Issues Latest Report on Materials for OLED Lighting Applications

NanoMarkets today announced the release of its report titled “OLED Lighting Materials Market Forecast 2013.” In this new report, NanoMarkets analyzes the opportunities for OLED lighting materials suppliers over the next eight years.

Glen Allen, Virginia – October 15, 2012 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced the release of its report titled “OLED Lighting Materials Market Forecast 2013.” In this new report, NanoMarkets analyzes the opportunities for OLED lighting materials suppliers over the next eight years. The report estimates that the total market for materials and technologies used in OLED lighting markets will surpass $1.3 billion (USD) by the year 2018. Additional details about the report are available at: http://www.nanomarkets.net/index.php/market_reports/report/oled_lighting_materials_market_forecast_2013.

About the Report:
Within the report NanoMarkets also examines the product development and marketing strategies of the major players in the OLED lighting materials sector, including UDC, Novaled, BASF, DuPont Displays, Merck/EMD, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, and others. The report indicates which firms are the “companies to watch” and which will be the likely winners and losers in the OLED materials space.

The report also contains detailed, eight-year forecasts for the materials used for OLED lighting applications, in both value ($ millions) and volume (kg or area of material) terms, broken out by product type and application.

OLED materials covered include:

– Emissive Layer Materials — Emitters and Hosts
– Electron and/or Hole Injection, Blocking, and Transport Materials
– Electrodes – Anodes and Cathodes
– Encapsulation Technologies, and
– Substrates – Rigid glass, flexible glass, plastics, and metal foils

The report also breaks out the core, functional OLED materials (emitters, etc.) by deposition method:

– Vapor-Deposited Small Molecules
– Solution-Processable Small Molecules, and
– Polymeric Materials

OLED lighting application sectors covered are:

General Illumination – Residential and Commercial
Specialty OLED Lighting, and
Vehicular OLED Lighting

From the Report:
The past year has brought big changes to the OLED lighting market. Pioneering OLED lighting firms are now, finally, poised to move beyond luxury luminaires and designer kits and into larger, general illumination applications. As the industry moves out of its infancy, these new general illumination applications will not only increase the number of OLED lighting panels sold, but will also demand larger panel sizes, thereby greatly increasing the total OLED materials needs.

With these trends, OLED lighting will eventually emerge as the largest addressable market for OLED materials, eclipsing even that of OLED displays, and materials suppliers will soon be able to point to tangible, commercial OLED lighting products, and to growth projections with much more confidence than in the past.

However, the commercial momentum will only be sustained if materials suppliers can help to close the remaining technology related to improved OLED lighting efficiency, lifetime, and total cost of ownership, all of which are needed to enable the fabrication of low-cost, large-area, long-lifetime panels.

NanoMarkets believes that the next three or four years will be critical for manufacturing and market development in advance of real growth, which will start to occur in about 2015 – 2016. During this period, materials suppliers to the OLED lighting industry can carve out competitive advantages in the following areas: materials that simultaneously increase efficiency and provide longer lifetimes, better encapsulation and substrate technologies that boost panel lifetime and expand design capabilities, and high performance solution-processable materials that enable low-cost/large-area manufacturing.

NanoMarkets Announces Release of OLED Lighting: Companies, Products and Strategies – 2012 Market Report

NanoMarkets has announced the release of its latest report on OLED lighting titled “OLED Lighting: Companies, Products and Strategies – 2012.”

Glen Allen, Virginia – May 9, 2012 — NanoMarkets has announced the release of its latest report on OLED lighting titled “OLED Lighting: Companies, Products and Strategies – 2012.” NanoMarkets projects that the OLED luminaire market will reach $6.4 billion ($US) by 2017 and within the report shows how far the OLED lighting industry has developed in the last two years. The report notes that OLED luminaires are available at affordable prices and a surprisingly large number of major electronics and lighting companies have developed plans to take OLED lighting into the mainstream general lighting market. Performance criteria for OLED lighting are close to acceptable for many real world applications.

This report analyzes in depth the product/market strategies of leaders of the OLED space including; Acuity Brands, AUO/Lextar, Blackbody, First-o-Lite, GE, Kaneka, Konica Minolta, LG, Lumiotec, Mitsubishi, Moser Baer, NEC, Novaled, Osram, Panasonic, Philips, Pioneer, Samsung, Sumitomo, Visionox and WAC Lighting. The report also provides insight into the strategies of smaller and emerging companies in this space.

Additional details about the report are available at: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/oled_lighting_companies_products_and_strategies_2012

The firm recently released its forecast of the OLED lighting global market. Details of that report are available here: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/nanomarkets_oled_lighting_market_forecast_q2_2012

Highlights from the Report:

One of the main selling features claimed for OLED lighting is “energy efficiency.” Two years ago, OLED lighting wasn’t very efficient, offering around 20 lm/W. Today, it is much closer to CFLs and LEDs as OLED lighting panels now routinely reach 45 lm/W to 65 lm/W. Prominent OLED lighting firms are confident that they will soon offer panels in the 100-150 lm/W range, which would then enable OLED lighting to rapidly penetrate general lighting markets. Firms that have announced superior efficiency performance in product roadmaps include Panasonic, LG and Philips.

OLED lights already compete with CFLs on lifetimes but remain challenged by LEDs. Still OLED lighting lifetimes continue to improve rapidly. Philips believes that OLED lighting panels will reach 40,000 hours by 2018. LG says it can reach this by 2015.

Firms in the OLED lighting space see office lighting as an early revenue generator. For this to happen, panels must be much larger than they are today. Major OLED lighting firms expect progress in this area soon. The often-conservative Philips plans 1 m x 1 m panels by 2018; Panasonic will have 600 x 600-mm panels by 2019. The Korean firm, Jusung Engineering has already built a 730 x 920-mm panel, although not as a commercial product.

There is a revival of interest in solution processing as a way of producing low-cost OLED lighting panels to profitably meet the price points of general lighting. Although GE’s efforts in this area are behind schedule, Sumitomo’s announcement that it is making a strong effort to print OLED lighting panels has given new life to printing OLED lighting panels. The Pioneer/Mitsubishi alliance is also developing a printing process for some layers of its panel.

NanoMarkets Releases New Report on OLED Luminaire Market

NanoMarkets has announced the release of its latest report, “OLED Lighting Market Forecast Q2 2012.”

Glen Allen, Virginia – March 19, 2012 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has announced the release of its latest report, “OLED Lighting Market Forecast Q2 2012.” In the report NanoMarkets presents its outlook on the OLED lighting sector with some notable changes since its last release in 2011. The firm notes concerns with the current economic situation in Europe which is a major center for OLED lighting as well as changes in manufacturing that will dampen prices in the short term but open the door to wider acceptance of the technology as OLED lighting efficiency, panel size and light output improvements bring the technology to the mainstream. NanoMarkets now expects that the total market for OLED lighting luminaires will reach approximately $6.3 billion in 2017.

Additional details about this and other OLED related reports are available at: http://www.nanomarkets.net

About the Report:

This report provides eight-year forecasts for OLED lighting in six different applications: purchases by lighting designers; luxury lighting; major installations in showrooms, tradeshows, etc.; residential lighting; commercial/industrial lighting; and automotive lighting. Forecasts are presented in both revenue terms ($ millions) and volume terms (units/square meters sold). In addition, the report contains qualitative forecasts of future opportunities for OLEDs in such areas as personal illumination products, signage, industrial lighting and novelty products.

The forecasts in this report are based on NanoMarkets’ insider understanding of OLED lighting demand patterns, but are backed up by matching projected demand against the plans of major OLED lighting panel suppliers to build manufacturing capacity. Among the firms discussed in this context are AUO, First-o-Lite, GE, Jusung Engineering, Kaneka, Konica Minolta, LG, Lumiotec, Moser Baer, NEC, Osram, Panasonic, Philips, Pioneer/Mitsubishi, Samsung and Visionox.

From the Report:

While NanoMarkets sees the overall prospects for the OLED lighting market as remaining strong, we now expect to see a major decline in OLED prices in the next two years as mass production technologies start to be applied to this kind of lighting. This pricing trend is expected to dampen OLED lighting revenues for the next three years until OLED lighting efficiency, panel size and light output have improved to the point where OLED lighting is acceptable in mainstream-and mass market – residential and business lighting markets.

In particular, NanoMarkets believes that OLED lighting has the potential to seriously compete with the standard fluorescent lighting panels widely used in offices through improved energy efficiency, lower costs and improved aesthetics. And by 2017 NanoMarkets expects that more than 75 percent of revenues for OLED luminaires will come from lighting for commercial and industrial buildings. In 2012, almost 90 percent of OLED sales for lighting applications will come from niche markets such as luxury lighting, large showroom installations and sales to lighting designers. But by 2017 that share will have fallen to under 1 percent.

NanoMarkets has lowered its penetration forecasts for OLED lighting compared to the forecasts it published in 2011 due to weaker than expected economic growth throughout the eight-year forecast period. NanoMarkets is particularly concerned about the impact of Europe’s ongoing monetary woes on the OLED lighting market. OLED lighting market is very Eurocentric with most of the important suppliers based in Europe and Europe’s importance to advanced lighting technology.

NanoMarkets Announces Upcoming Report on OLED Lighting Markets Due in March of 2012

NanoMarkets today announced that it will release a new round of market forecasts for the emerging OLED lighting sector. The results will be available the week of March 20th.

Glen Allen, Virginia – March 8, 2012 — Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced that it will release a new round of market forecasts for the emerging OLED lighting sector. The results will be available the week of March 20th. The firm has recently issued related reports on OLED manufacturing capacity, OLED lighting materials markets and encapsulation and plans to release a new analysis of the product and market strategies of companies operating in the business during the month of April. Additional details about the report are available at: http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/nanomarkets_oled_lighting_market_forecast_q2_2012

About the Report:

In the past year OLED lighting markets and production infrastructure have evolved. For example, office lighting has become a key market target for OLED lighting, while other applications no longer command the interest they once did. At the same time, while some likely future mass producers of OLED lighting seem to be committing more resources, others seem to be failing in their efforts.

With all this in mind, this report provides NanoMarkets’ latest market forecasts for OLED lighting. Our company has been actively tracking the OLED lighting market for more than five years and this report represents a more detailed forecast than any we have ever produced before.

In this report, we consider the revenue potential for the OLED lighting applications that currently interest the OLED market the most. We think these have changed since last year and now comprise luxury consumer lighting, decorative lighting for large buildings and showrooms, office lighting, residential lighting and automotive lighting. Another change in this year’s report is that we have provided a much more detailed analysis of pricing trends in OLED lighting than ever before In particular, in addition to looking at pricing expectations of leading manufacturers, we have also examined the likely roadmaps for pricing by unit, luminance and square meter and how these three measures are likely to correspond.

We consider other prominent forecasts for this market including a worse-case scenario in which OLED lighting never succeeds in growing beyond the luxury lighting sector, along with some ultra-optimistic scenarios that have emerged from other more dubious sources.

The forecasts in this report are in value and volume (square meter) terms and are broken out by applications. We also consider how the OLED lighting market is likely to be shared among various major countries and regions as it evolves. Finally, we examine how our forecasts tie in with the emergence of OLED lighting manufacturing capacity, around the world.

The report also contains detailed volume and revenue forecasts for materials used for OLED lighting broken out by material type and functionality in the OLED stack, as well as by OLED fabrication method – solution processing vs. vapor deposition, and small molecules vs. polymeric materials. In the report NanoMarkets says that revenues from emissive layer materials are expected to top $375 million by 2015, and over 90% of this will come from sales of vapor-deposited small molecule materials. And while solution-processable materials still have the potential to revolutionize OLED lighting with respect to increasing throughput and lowering costs, recent setbacks have pushed their impact beyond the timeframe of this report
