Printed Electronics Industry Overview
The printed electronics market in the healthcare industry is competitive and is currently dominated by a few major players with their technological expertise and global presence. Major players focus on product developments and strategic collaborative initiatives to sustain their growth to increase their market share and profitability. However, the increasing demand for printed electronics in the healthcare industry is expected to drive competition owing to the emergence of multiple new players. Some major players in the studied market include Jabil Inc., Bebop Sensors Inc., E Ink Holdings Inc., and Sensing Tex S.L, among others.
In November 2022, Henkel and Quad Industries, a specialist in printed electronics, developed a new concept to enable innovations for smart health patches at lower cost and with accelerated speed. The vendors started offering a demo package of twelve electrodes designed to allow engineers to quickly test the functionalities of their concepts, which significantly reduces the development time and lowers the overall design costs in the process.
In October 2022, Voltera, a printed electronics technology provider, launched NOVA, a new platform for printing flexible hybrid electronics that use direct write technology to print circuits on stretchable, soft, and conformable surfaces. According to the company, by not using screen printing, NOVA facilitates rapid design iteration while offering higher performance than other additive prototyping options such as inkjet.
