Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7rg2jg/united_states) has announced the addition of the "United States Photomask Market Forecast and Opportunities, 2019" report to their offering. The photomask market in the United States is forecast to reach US$ 474 million by 2019 The Western states held highest revenue share in the US photomask market in 2013, due to the presence of a large number of semiconductor and FPD manufacturing facilities in the region. Soda-lime base glass material photomasks accounted for the highest shipments in the US, in the year 2013. However, the quartz base glass material photomask segment is projected to overtake the soda-lime photomask segment by 2019. Toppan Photomasks, Photronics, Hoya Corporation and Nippon Filcon are the leading players in the United States photomask market, with Toppan Photomasks accounting for largest revenue share in 2013. Photomask market is broadly divided into two categories on the basis of the base glass material used- Soda-lime and Quartz photomasks. Quartz base glass material photomasks are gaining attraction due to low impurity levels, which offers high optical and thermal characteristics. Shipment of quartz photomasks is forecast to escalate over the next five years, supported by increasing demand from the Flat Panel Display (FPD) industry. However, the global photomask industry is facing price pressure due to stiff competition. The market is characterized by high fixed costs, where high factory utilization is an important prerequisite. Keeping a factory loaded is extremely important, which further increases pricing pressure in the merchant market.
