According to the latest price report of LEDinside Research Center (LEDinside), in August 2018, the prices of mainstream packaging products in the Chinese market showed different declines.
LED inside analyst Wang Ting said that due to the decline in chip prices in the third quarter and the intensification of market competition, China's mainstream packaging manufacturers have also adjusted product prices. This month, the prices of high-power and medium-power products have generally declined, and the general lighting market has grown. The strength is still weak. Among the mainstream packaging products, the average price of 0.2W and 0.5W 2835 LEDs was lowered by about 8% and 4% respectively; the average price of medium power 3030 LED products dropped by about 3% this month, while the price of LED products of 1W and above 3030 fell by 2%.
In the automotive market, although the LED penetration rate has gradually increased, many international first-tier manufacturers have begun to introduce lower-cost LED packaging products for thermoelectric separation vehicles, resulting in increased price competition for automotive LEDs.
