Based on product type, the anti-static foam packaging market is divided into conductive anti-static foam, dissipative anti-static foam, shielding anti-static foam, and static-neutral foam.
 

• The dissipative anti-static foam market was the largest and was valued at USD 1.43 billion in 2024. Electronics and aerospace regulatory agencies are cracking down on ESD (electrostatic discharge) control standards and are speeding up the adoption of dissipative anti-static foam solutions in manufacturing and logistics networks across the world.
   
• Major electronics manufacturers are bringing their packaging practices into compliance with ANSI/ESD S20.20 and IEC 61340 standards. For example, in April 2025, Samsung Electronics began using dissipative foam inserts for internal handling of PCBs (printed circuit boards) and shipping components externally. They ensure the total ESD packaging complies with the required surface resistivity range of 10–10 ohms and provides consistent ESD protection while being able to fluctuate humidity and temperatures.
   
• The conductive anti-static foam market was the fastest growing segment and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. Conductive anti-static foam is gaining traction as semiconductor, aerospace, and precision optics industries are demanding the highest level of electrostatic shielding for ultra-sensitive items during storage, handling, and transit.
   
• The surface resistivity of conductive foams is usually less than 10 ohms/sq when it comes to performance, allowing for faster charge dissipation and mimicking a Faraday cage effect to limit static accumulation, and if packaged correctly, conductive packaging decreases static failure rates by 60% for mission-critical devices, according to the ESD Association.
   
• Manufacturers seeking to use conductive foams should generally consider carbon-loaded polymer formulations to provide consistency for conductive foams, thermal stability in temperature-sensitive supply chains, and to make modular foam inserts for high-value chipset, optical sensors, and avionics to help satisfy zero-defect packaging programs in heavily regulated environments.
   

Based on form, the anti-static foam packaging market is divided into sheets, rolls, bags & pouches, inserts & trays, and custom shapes (die-cut, molded).
 

• The sheets market was the largest and was valued at USD 1.49 billion in 2024. Due to their customizable cutting, padding, and layering flexibility within packaging, sheets are being integrated into anti-static foam packaging as a widely accepted format in consumer electronics, medical devices, and sensitive instrument packaging. Mass-produced sheets will offer many similar product characteristics such as uniform thickness, no defects, versatility, ease of fabrication in the form of insert lining, divider, and protective layering functions in transport containers for static-sensitive components.
   
• With the strong demand for sheets, material suppliers need to look at advancing formulations of sheet-grade material for higher compression recovery, higher thermal insulating values, and for better electro-static discharge (ESD) performance. Converters can also invest in high precision die cutting and lamination systems to offer OEMS customized defect-free protection solutions. Together with electronics manufacturers, and logistics solutions providers, package designers should work to accelerate the use of ESD sheets into scalable and sustainable packaging workflows for their clients.
   
• The custom shapes (die-cut, molded) market was the fastest growing segment and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. Demand continues to surge as OEMs of electronics, manufacturers of medical devices, and suppliers of aerospace are all seeking precision engineered, specific-to-application packaging for complex static-sensitive components that need shipping and handling protection. Custom-shaped anti-static foam offer a better fit, shock-absorption, and electrostatic discharge protection during shipping and storage of irregular and delicate components. This particular format is becoming more common in markets that require precision - to dimension, design safety, and brand-related presentation style.
   
• Converters will maximize the value of custom-shaped foam by investing into CNC cutting, thermoforming and molding technologies that are scalable and repeatable. Collaborating with device makers, logistics and transport, and ESD packaging companies to combine and offer protective packaging solutions that minimize product damage and speed up unboxing, as well as meet growing global static compliance regulations for high-value markets.
   

Based on end use industry, the anti-static foam packaging market is divided into electronics & semiconductors, automotive, consumer appliances, aerospace & defense, healthcare & medical devices, industrial equipment, and others (e.g., telecom, renewable energy).

• The electronics & semiconductors market was the largest and was valued at USD 925.3 million in 2024. As semiconductor fabricators, PCB assemblers, and electronics contract manufacturers seek dependable and cost-effective packaging that offers some degree of protection from electrostatic discharge (ESD) while they handle, transport and store sensitive parts, anti-static foam packaging offers a suitable combination of cushioning and ESD mitigation for ICs, sensors, microprocessors, memory and other areas that require the operational features.
   
• To leverage the existing market growth, packaging suppliers should control the material conductivity, control, integrate cleanroom-compliant manufacturing processes and provide die-cutting services for specification-based component configurations. This enables packaging suppliers to work with semiconductor fabs, SMT lines, and electronics contract manufacturers to provide scalable and standards-based ESD packaging solutions suitable to support lean manufacturing and the performance integrity of end products throughout the global electronics supply chain.
   
• The automotive market was the fastest growing segment and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. The automotive segment is emerging as a key growth driver in the anti-static foam packaging market due to the increasing integration of electronics in vehicles, especially electric and autonomous models. As vehicles become more reliant on sensitive electronic components like battery management systems, sensors, and control units, the need for reliable ESD protection during manufacturing, storage, and transportation is rising.
   
• To accelerate growth in the automotive segment of the anti-static foam packaging market, manufacturers should focus on customizing solutions for electric vehicle (EV) components, such as battery modules, sensors, and control units, which are highly sensitive to electrostatic discharge. They should also invest in lightweight, form-fitting foam designs that align with automotive OEMs’ goals for efficiency and compact assembly. Collaborating with EV and autonomous vehicle manufacturers early in the design phase can help tailor packaging to specific component needs.
