Computer Keyboards Market: Industry Analysis And Detailed Profiles Of Top Industry Players

According to a new market report published by Future Market Insights titled “Computer Keyboards Market - Global Industry Analysis and Opportunity Assessment 2015 - 2025,” the global computer keyboards market was valued at US$ 4,780.5 Mn in 2014 and is expected to register a CAGR of 2.3% from 2015 to 2025. Growth of the computer keyboards market is primarily driven by increasing sales of ergonomic keyboards.

Ergonomic keyboards are designed to reduce muscular stress and conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome and repetitive stress injuries (RSIs) that result from persistent keyboard usage.

On the basis of type, the computer keyboards market is segmented into basic and ergonomic keyboards. The basic keyboards segment was valued US$ 4,287.4 Mn in 2014 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 0.8% during the forecast period 2015–2025. This sluggish growth can be attributed to rising adoption of ergonomic keyboards by heavy users as they prevent RSIs and Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).


Leading players, such as Microsoft Corporation, Logitech International SA, Gold Touch Inc., and Fellowes Inc., who manufacture basic keyboards are shifting towards ergonomic keyboards production in order to capitalize on the high demand for the same. Additionally, tools and user interface technologies such as speech processing, brain mapping interface, and most importantly touchscreen keyboards are expected to impact the adoption of computer keyboards significantly in the near future.

Ergonomic keyboards accounted for 10.3% share of the total computer keyboards market in 2014. Adoption of ergonomic keyboards is expected to increase at a strong rate due to growing awareness about their benefits such as comfortable positioning of the hand, wrist, and forearm, and easy approach to keys (due to the curved key layout which reduces stress while typing).

The ergonomic keyboards market is further segmented on the basis of type (vertical, compact, adjustable, split, and others), switching mechanism (membrane based and mechanical), size (standard, laptop, thumb-size, and numeric keyboards), and applications (corporate, personal, and gaming).


This report covers trends driving each segment and offers analysis and insights regarding the potential of the computer keyboards market in key regions including North America, Latin America, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Asia Pacific (excluding Japan), Japan, and the Middle East & Africa.

North America accounted for the largest market share in 2014, owing to growing complaints of RSIs and carpal tunnel syndrome at workplaces. In order to increase operational productivity, enterprises in this region are adopting ergonomic workstation solutions including keyboards, mice, and office furniture.


In terms of value, Asia Pacific (including Japan) commanded 21% share of the total ergonomic keyboards market in 2014. The region is expected to witness the highest growth throughout the forecast period, owing to increasing adoption of ergonomic keyboards in countries such as India, China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and the Philippines.

Market growth across these countries is primarily driven by growing numbers of multinational companies, such as Tata Group, Intel Corporation, Global Sources, Induchem AG, and HubSpot, Inc., establishing offices in the region. In order to make the most of this opportunity, computer keyboard manufacturers (especially ergonomic keyboards manufacturers) are expected to expand distribution channels in this region during the forecast period.

Growing Industrialization will Influence the Oil Condition Monitoring Market Growth

Major players in the global oil condition monitoring market are Bureau Veritas, Intertek, Parker Hannifin Corporation, Castrol Limited, Spectro Analytical Instruments, General Electric Company, and Insight Services Unveils TestOil Oil is an important resource used in various machineries and engines in order to provide lubrication and for temperature regulation. After prolonged usage, oil starts to lose out on its properties and becomes less functional. Using such oil can damage the engine or machinery in which it is being used. Hence, it is necessary to keep a check on the condition of oil and replace or upgrade it after its optimum usage. Oil condition monitoring means keeping a timely check on the quality of oil that is being deployed in the system and taking the necessary steps so that the oil serves its purpose to the fullest. The monitoring also helps in increasing the efficiency of the machine, reduces downtime, and reduces cost, thereby increasing profits. Request A Sampl

Communications Electronics Cooling Systems Market Growth to be Stimulated by Brisk Technological Expansions

The Electronic cooling systems have wide range of applications in many industrial domains for their nature of keeping the electronic device cool and maintain the temperatures optimally required by the device. There are various cooling techniques that includes heat sinks, thermoelectric coolers, forced air systems, fans, and heat pipes. However in case of low environmental temperatures, the devices may require to heat it to maintain the temperature required by the device to achieve satisfactory operation. Also the electronic circuits generate lots of heat and thus maintaining the temperature increases the reliability and shelf life of the device. These electronic cooling systems have wide applications in personal computers, soldering, batteries, and other electronic component and devices. There are software that are designed for thermal simulation of electronic devices. There are various methods through which heat is being sink in the devices that includes cold plates, fans, high condu
