A noteworthy example is LG, a South Korea-based consumer electronics company, reporting its highest-ever annual revenue in 2022, reflecting a 12.9% increase from 2021. The revenue for LG's Home Appliance & Air Solution Company in 2022 reached $22.5 billion, marking a 10.3% increase from the previous year. This robust performance underscores the pivotal role of the growing semiconductor and electronics industries in propelling the expected growth of the electrical and electronics ceramics market.

Another significant driver of market growth is the increasing prevalence of household appliances, which are essential electrical or mechanical devices designed for domestic use. Electrical and electronics ceramics play a crucial role in enhancing the performance, safety, and durability of these appliances, particularly in areas such as electrical insulation, thermal resistance, and ensuring efficient and reliable operation. A report from Trend Economy reveals a notable 15.7% increase in sales of washing machines in the USA between 2021 and 2022, underscoring the rising demand for household appliances. This trend is anticipated to be a substantial factor driving the growth of the electrical and electronics ceramics market.

Major companies in the electrical and electronics ceramics market are concentrating on developing technologically advanced products, such as high-performance ceramic substrates for power electronics, to improve efficiency, reliability, and thermal management across various electronic applications. High-performance ceramic substrates for power electronics are advanced materials designed to support electronic circuits and components, especially in high-temperature and high-voltage applications. For example, in June 2024, CeramTec, a Germany-based chemical industry firm, launched a new ceramic substrate called Sinalit, made from silicon nitride (Si3N4), to strengthen its portfolio in the power electronics sector. This innovative product features high thermal conductivity and exceptional electrical insulation properties, making it ideal for a range of applications. Sinalit will be displayed at the upcoming PCIM Europe trade fair in Nuremberg, underscoring CeramTec's dedication to delivering advanced solutions within the ceramics industry.

Major companies in the electrical and electronics ceramics market are strategically focusing on innovative products, such as Rubalit ZTA, to drive revenue growth in their sector. Rubalit ZTA stands out as a high-performance ceramic material renowned for its exceptional mechanical properties and versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial and technical applications. An exemplary case is CeramTec GmbH, a Germany-based manufacturer of advanced ceramics and ceramic-based components, launching Rubalit ZTA (Zirconia Toughened Alumina) in May 2023. This material offers outstanding flexural strength, remarkable thermal conductivity, excellent electrical insulation, and top dielectric strength values. ZTA is particularly well-suited for high-performance applications, including power production and electromobility. Notably, Rubalit ZTA demonstrates a 40% increase in flexural strength, exceeding 625 MPa compared to commonly used aluminum oxide. This enhancement translates to power modules constructed on Rubalit ZTA having significantly higher fatigue strength in real-world applications.
