Pune, Feb. 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Market Analysis
The global Stretchable Electronics Market is highly lucrative and predicted to witness significant growth at a 25.29% CAGR over the forecast period (2020-2026), reveals the Market Research Future (MRFR) report. Stretchable electronics, simply put, is a technology that combines flexible or rigid electronic circuits and devices with stretchable substrates. They are deposited on stretchable materials such as polyurethanes that are used in the manufacturing process of rigid printed board circuit. Stretchable electronics mimic the flesh and skin of humans with regard to mechanical performance and stretchability. It is also known as elastic circuits or elastic electronics. They can include the same electronic devices which are used for rigid printed circuit boards, with the only thing that needs to be altered is the interconnects and the substrate, which requires to be stretchable in nature.
Fascinating Features Fuelling Market Growth
As per the Market Research Future report, there are numerous factors that are propelling the stretchable electronics industry growth. These include the growing awareness about the benefits of stretchable electronics such as low fabrication cost, simple fabrication, and long switching times, stretchable electronics is likely to allow new markets for low-cost, lightweight, high performance, flexible, or large-area disposable devices, growing high end-user interest, the need for working integrated devices, and growth in the consumer electronics. Additional factors adding to the elastic circuits market growth include the increased utilization of organic solar cells, miniaturization of electronic products for better operational speed, extensive research to increase stretchability of material, and growing adoption of the wearable device.
On the contrary, increasing competition from non-stretchable electronics products, the complexity of the value chain, lack of awareness, and the obstacle to find suitable material may impede the global stretchable electronics market growth over the forecast period.

COVID-19 Analysis
The emergence of the novel coronavirus has pulled down the growth rate of the stretchable electronics market. Implementation of lockdown worldwide is the key reason for the fall in the growth. The pandemic has caused major delays for electronic manufacturers as suppliers in China faced challenges to keep factories running at full fledge. Most electronic manufacturers in Europe and the US rest on specific components that are built by suppliers in China, so there has been a delay in supply due to the spread of the COVID-19. Companies, however, are committed to serving customers by adhering to the regulations and rules laid down by the government in respective regions.
On the brighter side, the market also saw some positive light amidst the pandemic. Philips, for instance, launched Philips Biosensor BX100, its next-generation wearable biosensor for early deterioration detection of patients. It helps to manage suspected and confirmed coronavirus patients in the hospital. On the other hand, Stanford University’s Zhenan Bao has made stretchable electronics for artificial skin that can be used for both robots and human prostheses. All these are likely to have a positive impact on market growth.
