Global Shipments Of LCD TV Panels Reach 130 Million
Nov 22, 2021
The upstream of the liquid crystal display industry chain is the production of various raw materials, mainly including glass substrates, liquid crystals, color filters, ICs, backlights, TP, polarizers, printed circuit boards, ITO glass, electronic components, chemical materials and other raw materials manufacturing .
After 2003, although my country's LCD industry has developed rapidly, the scale of the industry has continued to grow, and the localization has continued to increase, the self-sufficiency rate of LCD panels is still low, and products are highly dependent on foreign sources, which affects the long-term domestic LCD industry to a certain extent. develop. As the electronic information industry's demand for liquid crystal displays continues to increase, my country's existing enterprises continue to put into production of liquid crystal panel product lines, and the industry's production capacity continues to increase.
The midstream of the liquid crystal display industry chain includes the R&D, design, production and sales of liquid crystal displays and display modules. Display manufacturing refers to the manufacture of glass substrates, color filters, polarizers, liquid crystal materials and other raw materials into LCD or TFT-LCD; The module is assembled by TV light guide plate, driver IC, backlight module and other components.
In the first half of this year, global LCD TV panel shipments reached 130 million pieces, an increase of 2.5% year-on-year, and the shipment area was 83.12 million square meters, an increase of 10.3% year-on-year. Although the lack of supply of key upstream materials such as driver ICs has pushed up the price of LCD panels since the second half of 2020, and has also slowed down the production scale of panel companies, the shipments of LCD TV panel manufacturers have been in the first half of this year. Volume and shipment area still maintained rapid growth.
The downstream of the liquid crystal display industry chain is widely used in consumer electronics, smart homes, smart financial data terminals, industrial control and automation, people's livelihood energy, health care, automotive electronics, communication equipment and other fields. Specific application scenarios include remote controls, ciphers, and temperature control. Computers, POS machines, instruments, gas dispensers, industrial control panels, blood pressure monitors, clinical thermometers, car dashboards, fixed telephones, fax machines, electronic dictionaries, PDAs, office equipment, game consoles, TVs, mobile phones, laptops, tablets Computer, etc.
