Metamaterial Market Overview


The global metamaterial market is projected to witness significant growth during the forecast period 2022–2030. In 2021, the global market was valued at USD 305 million. This number is expected to reach USD 1,011.2 million, with a 15% CAGR by the end of 2030. The surging demand for metamaterial in the electronics & telecommunication industry is primarily driving the global metamaterial market.


A metamaterial is a material that has been engineered to have properties that are not found in nature. Metamaterials are constructed from multiple composite materials such as metals, plastics, and others in repeating patterns. When compared to natural composites, this artificially structured composite exhibits exotic and unique properties such as electromagnetic properties. The increasing demand in developing countries will drive market growth.


COVID-19 Impact on the metamaterial Market


The metamaterial market declined in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This deadly virus has adversely affected the globe, especially the North American and European regions. The electronics & telecommunication, and automotive industries have faced very adverse circumstances due to the pandemic. To prevent the further spread of this virus, companies have shut down their operations and manufacturing facilities, and the government restricted production activities. This has reduced the consumption of Metamaterial across all industries. But currently, there are no restrictions, and the spread of the virus is also controlled. Therefore, industries are developing and creating healthy competition in the metamaterial market.


Market Dynamics


Drivers



  • Adoption of metamaterials in high-end aerospace, defense, and military applications: Effective communications for the military, aerospace & defense sectors require improved antenna technology. For network-centric operations in the digital battlefield to transmit precise information to the relevant personnel, reliable, efficient, and real-time communications are crucial. The antenna is an essential, albeit occasionally disregarded, component of defense, aerospace, and military systems. Radars also use military antennas to guide missiles for accurate target tracking. Increased border infiltration, terrorist activity, global wars, and attack-prone frontiers are predicted to fuel the market for military antennas.

  • Rising demand for metamaterials in information & communication technology: One of the main factors driving the growth of the metamaterial market is anticipated to be the expansion of wireless communication services brought on by the increased need for antennas, a crucial component of mobile and satellite communications equipment.


Restraints



  • Inadequate infrastructure for manufacturing the products in large quantities: The industry players are still relying on research universities for bulk production. In contrast to their constituent materials, metamaterials' qualities are determined by their structure. Thus, depending on their intended use, metamaterials are synthesized in various ways. Finding the appropriate materials to satisfy an application's needs can be difficult. This makes the process of producing metamaterials difficult and time-consuming. The price of synthesis varies depending on the fabrication techniques employed. Various fabrication techniques are possible depending on the desired application and design combination. As a result, creating metamaterials is expensive. The price of synthesizing metamaterials is considerable, which restrains the market for them because there isn't readily available technology to do so.


Opportunity



  • Advancements in 5G: Metamaterial-based antennas will benefit from the development and adoption of 5G. Industry players are working on developing Metamaterial based on antennas that could provide favorable radiation patterns, making them highly suitable for operations beyond ultra-wideband applications and 5G communications.

  • Challenge

  • Unavailability of technology for mass production of metamaterials: Metamaterial-based products are still in the R&D stage. As a result, industry players rely on research centers or universities to develop techniques.
