Custom Screen Printing in the US - Industry Market Research Report

Custom Screen Printing in the US

Companies in the Custom Screen Printing industry use screen printing services on a job-order basis. Printing services include customized stationary, invitations, labels and apparel, like T-shirts, to a broad spectrum of downstream buyers. Industry revenue has declined alongside the more significant declines in the broader Printing industry (IBISWorld Report 32311). Falling revenue during the five-year period can be attributed to ongoing declines in print advertising expenditure and the adverse effects of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. Following the onset of the pandemic in 2020, consumer spending and corporate profit declined, reducing demand for screen printing from the majority of the industry's markets. Stay-at-home measures essentially canceled events, like sporting games or concerts, where customized apparel is often sold. Although pent-up demand for custom screen printing services has resurged following economic improvements between 2021 and 2022, revenue growth in the latter half of the period will not offset the coronavirus-related decline. Industry revenue has been falling at an average annualized 3.0% over the past five years and is expected to total $9.3 billion in 2023 when revenue will dip by an estimated 1.5%.

Operators in the Custom Screen Printing industry engage in screen printing without publishing on a job-order basis. Printing services include, but are not limited to, stationary, invitations, labels and apparel such as T-shirts, caps, jackets and towels.
