Global Oxygen Free Copper Market Insights

The global oxygen free copper market is projected to grow from USD 20.0 billion in 2021 to USD 26.1 billion by 2026 at a CAGR value of 4.2% between 2021 to 2026. Copper gets refined through electrolytc measures and then gets converted to oxygen free copper or commonly known as oxygen free high conductivity copper.

Oxygen free copper is highly conductive and is also chemically pure which creates a demand for its by-product in various industries such as semi-conductor, electronics and automotive domain. To avoid any reaction related to chemicals present in the surrounding, oxygen free copper plays an important role. Audio and Video cable manufacturers across the globe use oxygen free copper as it has long lasting capabilities and helps to transfer low frequency sounds.

One of the major factors that would escalate the growth of oxygen free copper market is rising demand for electronics and consumables across the globe as well as the rise in demand for aerospace and defence related raw materials.

Covid-19 has impacted all the industries across the globe and the lockdown like situation which had restricted the movement of people has further led to decline in demand for all the industries including copper. With the manufacturing, automotive and electrical market being shut throughout the pandemic, oxygen free copper market went through a series sump phase. However, with the revival of economy, this market is expected to witness a substantial growth rate with major demand coming from the APAC region and other developing regions.

Global Oxygen Free Copper Market: By Product Form

Based on the type of product form, the market can be segmented into wires, strips, busbars & rods and others. Oxygen free wires will be the largest segment in the market during the forecast period. Oxygen free wires have a higher conductivity rate and is more resistant and long lasting. Furthermore, the chances of the oxygen free copper wire for corrosion is quite less due to the reduced oxygen content. Increased demand for oxygen free wires from the APAC region is one of the major reasons for the segments domiance.

Global Oxygen Free Copper Market: By Grade

Based on grade, the oxygen free copper market is segmented into CU-OF, CU-OFE and others. CU-OFE (oxygen free electronic) has 99.9 % copper contents after the silver is removed, and oxygen is reduced to 0.0005%. CU-OFE is manufactured from pure copper cathode and is then poured into a protective gas atmosphere. It has 1% more electrical conductivity than CU-OF and is used in high quality audio and video systems. It is applicable to various products such as microwave tubes, vacuum capacitors, vacuum seals and Tv transmitters among others, and hence, the CU-OFE segment is estimated to grow the fastest in the market.

Development of new wire related products in automotive and electrical industry will drive the demand for CU-OFE. Additionally, the use of CU-OFE in the aerospace industry application in expected to offer lucrative opportunities for oxygen free copper market growth in the forecast period.

Global Oxygen Free Copper Market: By End User

Based on end user, the oxygen free copper market is segmented into electronics & electricals, automotive and others. The automotive industry is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Demand for new vehicles and EV (Electric Vehicle) coming into play would drive the growth. Copper has high electrical conductivity which would be used in the battery components of vehicles. In addition, increasing demand of aerospace industry will further drive the growth of copper in this industry.

Global Oxygen Free Copper Market: By Region

As per the geographical analysis, the market can be classified into North America (the US, Canada, and Mexico), Asia Pacific (India, China, Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, Singapore, and Rest of Asia Pacific), Europe (Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Netherlands, and Rest of Europe), Middle East & Africa (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Rest of MEA) and Central & South America (Brazil, Peru, Chile, and Rest of CSA).

APAC region is expected to witness rapid growth during the forecast period majorly due to rising demand for electronics and electrical products and increasing demand for electric vehicles from the automotive industry.

Furthermore, the high growth of the APAC region is mainly influenced by the presence of large number of producers of electronic products based out in China, India, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. High population with increased demands for semiconductor products will further drive the oxygen free copper market during the forecast period. Furthermore, the North American region is expected to have the largest share in the market.
