Samsung SDI (Japan) accounted for the largest share of all the development activities undertaken in the global optical film market between 2014 and 2018. The company follows dynamic growth strategies with new product launches and expansions to strengthen its geographical presence and customer base. For instance, in May 2015, the company signed a Memorandum of Understanding with China’s Wuxi City for building a new polarizer plant due to the increasing demand for big screen TV from China in the polarizing film market. Samsung SDI has planned to set up a production line so that its products can be applied to the biggest market of eighth-generation LCD panels.

LG Chem, Ltd. (South Korea) is a leading provider of optical film. The company is primarily focused on expansions of its distribution network.

Thus, LG Chem will be the leader in the polarizer market with its differential materials and technology.
