my country’s pressure testing membrane production continues to grow, and there is a large supply and demand gap in the market

Pressure test membrane, also known as “pressure-sensitive paper” and “pressure-sensitive film”, is a membrane material that can accurately measure pressure, pressure distribution and pressure balance. It mainly displays pressure distribution visually through different color concentrations and has high accuracy. , fast measurement speed, good stability and other advantages.

The upstream of the pressure testing film industry chain is the supply of raw materials such as conductive materials, layer materials, and pressure-sensitive materials; the midstream is the production of segmented products, including optical pressure testing films, resistive pressure testing films, piezoelectric pressure testing films, etc.; It is widely used downstream in automobiles, electronics, semiconductors, liquid crystal displays and other fields.

From the perspective of the global market, with the continuous development of semiconductor, liquid crystal display and other industries, as well as the increasing investment in R&D and the continuous advancement of production technology, the market size of pressure testing membranes has continued to grow in recent years. The global pressure testing membrane market will exceed US$300 million in 2022, growing by approximately 3.2% year-on-year in 2021. From the perspective of regional distribution, the Asia-Pacific region accounts for approximately 56% of the market share, making it the main consumer market for pressure testing membranes.

According to the “China Pressure Testing Membrane Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report 2023-2028” released by the Industrial Research Center, From the perspective of the domestic market, with the continuous improvement of my country’s economic and technological development level, the continuous expansion of the scale of high-tech industries, and the continuous development of the automobile manufacturing industry, the pressure testing membrane market has continued to expand. In 2022, my country’s pressure testing membrane market will exceed 600 million yuan, a year-on-year growth of approximately 4.2%.

The research and development and production of pressure testing membranes have high requirements on technology, equipment, talents, etc., and it is difficult to enter the industry. The domestic market has been monopolized by foreign companies for a long time, and local companies still have considerable room for development. In recent years, domestic companies have continued to increase their research and development efforts, gradually breaking foreign monopolies, and promoting the continuous growth of domestic pressure testing membrane production. However, due to the small number of companies and strong downstream demand, there is still a large supply and demand gap in the market. In 2022, my country’s pressure testing membrane output will be approximately 30,000 boxes, and the demand will exceed 420,000 boxes.

Baoding Lekai New Materials Co., Ltd. is a key enterprise in the domestic pressure testing membrane industry. The company focuses on the research and development and production of functional membrane materials and weather-resistant functional materials. Its products include magnetic strips, pressure testing membranes, antioxidants and other products. At the technical level , marketing network, management level and other aspects rank at the forefront of the domestic industry. In 2018, its independently developed medium and micro-pressure pressure testing membrane was successfully launched on the market, representing a breakthrough in domestic pressure testing membranes from scratch.

Industry analysts said that currently there are only a small number of domestic companies that have mastered the production technology of pressure testing membranes, and the industry is still in the development stage, with relatively large Great development potential. As the R&D strength of enterprises continues to improve, domestic pressure testing membrane production will continue to grow, and the average market price of products is expected to gradually decline, thereby promoting further release of market demand.
