Global Switches Market Insights, Forecast to 2025

Whenever a switching mechanism relies on a mechanical action to change the direction or orientation of path continuity within its terminal base, it is referred to as an electromechanical switch. These switches can often be hampered by a short cycle life due to the inherent wear and tear associated with mechanical operation, but there are many switches that still can maintain a significant amount of cycles before signal and mechanical degradation.
Switches industry is relatively concentrated, manufacturers are mostly in the Japan, EU, United States and China. Among them, Japan output value accounted for more than 31.33% of the total output value of global switches in 2016. ITT Industries is the world leading manufacturer in global switches market with the market share of 12.79%, in terms of revenue.

The global switches market is expected to reach $4769.10 million by 2022 from $4568.21 million in 2017, growing at a CAGR of 0.86% from 2017 to 2021. And China market is expected to be the biggest market with output market share of 28.12% in 2022.

With the increasing in production capacity, expected that the switches raw material price will be stable in the short term. However, the improvement of energy, transportation costs, and labor costs, will play a significant role in promoting the cost of switches.

There are companies aims at the cost and quality leadership which shall improve profitability. As the same time, companies are focusing on technological innovation, equipment upgrades, and process improvements, to reduce costs and improve quality.

The average price of switches will fall further. The product average price declined in the past few years due to the technology development, the average price will keep this trend in the few future years due to increasing mature manufacturing technology, cost of raw materials, as well as the substitute threat.

The Switches market was valued at 4570 Million US$ in 2018 and is projected to reach 4910 Million US$ by 2025, at a CAGR of 0.9% during the forecast period. In this study, 2018 has been considered as the base year and 2019 to 2025 as the forecast period to estimate the market size for Switches.
