COVID-19 Impact: Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to the slowdown in manufacturing industries

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic has altered the ferroelectric materials market in a significant way mainly resulting in a recessionary tendency thereby leading to decreased production as well as supply of ferroelectric materials due to disruptions that happened along the global supply linkages that were occasioned by lockdowns and other restrictions. The resulting effect of this was the reduction of production rates in major sectors such as electronics and automotive since demand was low following decreased manufacturing processes.

Additionally, some projects were delayed or cancelled due to the uncertainty as well as the economic strain caused by the pandemic, making the market growth rate to decrease much further. Even as the pandemic restrictions began to ease, levels of recovery remained relatively low compared to other sectors because the beginning of the outbreak had set off alarm bells about the market’s potential fragility in relation to worldwide calamities. The importance of robust supply chains and innovation in material science, which could drive future resilience and growth in the market for ferroelectric materials, was also highlighted by the pandemic, despite the challenges that it presented.
