The Seals Market Registered a Contracted Growth in 2020, Followed by Healthy Growth Starting from 2021, Reaching US$ 0.9 Billion in 2026

Market Highlights

Seals are one of the critical components used in semiconductor manufacturing equipment. In the semiconductor industry, contaminations are measured in microns as semiconductor equipment making is critical and very sensitive to contaminations. To avoid these contaminations, seals are applied in the wafer fabrication equipment. They are situated in almost every piece of equipment used for the wafer fabrication process, such as chemical vapor deposition, cleaning/etching, atomic layer deposition, physical vapor deposition, oxidation, diffusion, photolithography, rapid thermal process, and ion implant. Seals account for merely 1.5% of the global semiconductor manufacturing equipment market in terms of value.

When almost all the companies serving industries like automotive, aerospace, and industrial, were recording huge losses due to the sudden drop in demand in the wake of the pandemic. Seal manufacturers serving the semiconductor segment were extremely overloaded with abundant orders. Overall, the semiconductor seals market flourished amid the pandemic and showed growth in the past two years (2021 and 2022) and is expected to continue its growth momentum in the year 2023 and beyond, driven by a host of factors such as increasing high-bandwidth smartphones, increasing demand for wearable devices, and rapid expansion of electric vehicles across the globe. After excellent growth in 2021, the market is expected to experience sequential growth till 2028, with a CAGR of 7.9% over the next five years to reach US$ 1,303.7 million in 2028.

Recent Market JVs and Acquisitions: There were hardly any strategic alliances, including M&As, JVs, etc., performed in recent years. Unlike the global seals market, the semiconductor seals market recorded less significant M&A activities. For instance;

  • In 2019, CARCO-PRECISION RUBBER PRODUCTS S.p.A. acquired Microflex Technologies, LLC. The acquisition will further strengthen Carco’s position in the USA market and allowed the company to extend its solutions into critical applications for the semiconductor industry.
  • In 2019, HEICO Corporation’s Electronic Technologies Group acquired 85% of the stock of Solid Sealing Technology, Inc. This acquisiton will help HEICO Corporation for its custom design capabilities drawn from a broad range of sealing technologies as Solid Sealing Technology, Inc has been known as a leader in its field.

Market Segments’ Analysis

The semiconductor seals market is segmented into lithography, etching/cleaning, deposition, process diagnostics, and others. Etching/cleaning is expected to remain the largest market segment over the next five years. Key driving factors are rising demand for more efficient cleaning technologies for the development of efficient and effective semiconductors and an increase in the demand for cleaning/etching equipment in the wake of growing demand for small devices such as smartphones, laptops, and other consumer electronics products.

The market is segmented into FKM, FFKM, fluorosilicone, and other seals. FFKM is estimated to maintain its market dominance and is also expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. Key factors boosting the demand for FFKM seals are increasing demand for high-performance seals owing to the increasing wafer size. Similarly, FKM is likely to maintain its second-leading position in the market. These seals are relatively cheap than FFKM seals and meet the desired requisites of many applications in the semiconductor fabrication process.

The market is segmented into O-rings, gaskets, lip seals/bonded seals, and others. O-ring is likely to maintain its dominance during the forecast period, whereas lip seal/bonded seal is expected to grow at the fastest pace during the same period. Recovery from deformation and easy-to-use properties of O-rings drive their popularity in semiconductor applications. Bonded seals with a greater life cycle are the key requirements of fabricators to reduce maintenance cost.

The semiconductor seals market is segmented into static and dynamic. Between which the static seals are expected to remain the dominant segment in the coming years. Key applications of static seals are center rings, window seals, gas inlets and outlets, exhaust valves, chamber lids, chemical containers, etc. O-rings are the major product type used for static applications.

Asia-Pacific is expected to maintain its unassailable lead in the foreseen future. China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan are the leading markets in the region. A key factor driving the regional growth is the aggressive promotional policies by the governments coupled with high investments made by the private companies. The region is a manufacturing hub for cleaning and chemical vapor deposition equipment and housing equipment manufacturers.

The market is highly consolidataed with the presence of some regional and global players. Most of the major players compete in some of the governing factors including price, product offerings, product quality, and regional presence. The supply chain of this market comprises of raw material suppliers, semiconductor seal fabricators, semiconductor equipment manufacturers, and semiconductor fabricators.
