FILMTECH JAPAN, the world's leading trade show for advanced film and equipment, is set to make its mark once again at the INTEX Osaka from May 8th to May 10th, 2024, offering a unique platform for businesses to connect, explore the latest advancements, and source solutions for their next projects.
FILMTECH JAPAN handles all products, technologies, and services related to films, but the focus of this current session is on coatings. The future of the thin film coating market in Japan is brimming with potential across various sectors, including consumer electronics, tools & equipment, automotive, aerospace & defense, energy, and the medical industry. This growth is primarily driven by the surging demand for thin film coatings in consumer electronics, particularly high-resolution displays. Thin film coatings are prized for their superior functional properties and performance benefits, making them a game-changer across various industries.
One of the most exciting emerging trends impacting the thin film coatings industry is the use of these coatings in the development of flexible displays. Indium tin oxide (ITO), with its unique combination of electrical conductivity and optical transparency, is the dominant material for transparent conductive coatings in high-resolution displays.
