This report analyzes the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market in terms of mechanism, application, and geography. On the basis of mechanism employed, the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market is segmented into gravure, flatbed and rotary screen printing, flexographic printing, imprint lithography, laser ablation, offset printing, inkjet printing, and other mechanisms. Similarly, based on application, the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market is classified into consumer electronics, automotive, energy, healthcare, and defense and security among others. The geographical distribution of the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market considered in this study encompasses regional markets such as North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America.
Growing desire among flexible device manufacturers to curb manufacturing cost in order to sustain profit margins and better penetrate markets is expected to drive adoption of roll-to-roll manufacturing technologies/techniques during the forecast period. In addition, since R2R processing consume less energy and have comparatively higher throughput capacity than traditional manufacturing processes, their adoption among flexible device manufacturers is bound to grow in the coming years. However, lack of primary standardized infrastructure at most manufacturing facilities and lack of awareness regarding the potential and limitations of roll-to-roll processes has hampered the adoption of roll-to-roll technologies among manufacturers.

On the basis of geography, the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market is segmented into following regions and countries.
The contribution of these regions (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and RoW) to the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market in 2015 is as shown in the figure below.
As of 2014, the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market was led by Asia Pacific followed by North America and Europe respectively. The revenue share of Asia Pacific in the global roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market stood at 35.9% in 2014. The growth in the Asia Pacific roll-to-roll technology for flexible device market is majorly backed by growing demand for flexible electronics in countries including China, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. These countries are also house to large number of flexible device manufacturers who prefer R2R manufacturing over other traditional manufacturing processes due to benefits offered in terms of cost, production, and throughput. In addition, resurgence in the industrial sector coupled with increasing inflow of foreign funds is expected to support the demand for flexible electronics, and hence roll-to-roll processing instruments.
