The scale of optical glass industry continues to expand market concentration will gradually improve

Optical glass refers to glass that can change the direction of light propagation and the relative spectral distribution of ultraviolet, visible, or infrared light.Optical glass can be used to manufacture lenses, prisms, mirrors and Windows in optical instruments. It is a key component of optical instruments.With the rapid development of the global camera, smartphone, security monitoring, vehicle lens, AR/VR, uav and other industries, the downstream demand for optical glass continues to grow.

In the downstream application market of optical glass, the share of traditional optical industry such as digital camera and video camera continues to shrink, the smartphone market becomes increasingly saturated and the growth rate of demand slows down, but the demand for optical glass in these three fields, especially in the smartphone field, is still huge.Emerging industries such as security monitoring, vehicle-mounted lens, AV/VR, motion DV, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and home projector are developing at a faster pace, which have become the new driving force for the growth of the optical glass market.In general, the optical glass industry has broad prospects for development
