The global mobile phone cases & covers market is highly dependent upon the sales of smartphones across the world, which have showcased favorable signs during the last two quarters of 2019.
As per FMI, this trend will see a range of ebbs and flows as the consumer refresh rate for mobile phones obtains its new balance point. Further decline in the average selling prices (ASP) of smartphones over the last several years has spurred their sales, and, as such, has steered the mobile phone accessories industry.

Mobile Phone Cases and Covers Market – Growth Drivers and Trends
Driven by their exceptional barrier properties, market players continue to bank on plastics such as polypropylene (PP) and polyurethane (PU) for manufacturing mobile phone cases and covers.
Although plastics are cheap and abundant, their overutilization is severely affecting the ecosystem, and, in turn, provoking stringent regulations against their usage.
In a bid to remain competitive on the global landscape, manufacturers are turning to biodegradable materials such as bamboo, fabric, vegan leather, and post-consumer recycled plastics.
These next-gen mobile phone cases and covers are eco-friendly and entirely compostable, as well as provide barrier properties similar to traditional substrates.
These mobile phone cases and covers conform to the child safety standards in the US, Europe, and Australia as they do not contain bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates, lead, and cadmium. This paradigm shift towards sustainable substrates will have a significant impact on mobile phone cases and covers market in the coming years.
Mobile Phone Cases and Covers Market – Growth Restraints
Volatility in the cost of the raw materials utilized in the production of the cases and covers are inhibiting the growth of the market. As several local producers are engaged in the manufacturing of mobile phone covers and cases, this has led to the hindered quality of mobile phone cases and covers.
There is no fixed yardstick for the quality of these covers and cases, thus, hampering the growth of the market. Further, significant drop in uptake of smartphones amid the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have a long-term impact on the mobile phone cases and covers market.
COVID-10 Impact Analysis

Countrywide lockdowns and increasing unemployment have declined consumers’ confidence and realigned their spending towards essential items, affecting the sales of smartphones in the immediate future.
On the flip side, 5G is slated to be a game-changer over the following decade, and will play a key role in global smartphone industry recovery in 2021.
