Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing customer preference for print-on-demand

The market is developing as a result of consumers' increasing preference for print-on-demand. The print-on-demand (POD) order delivery method prints the products as soon as the customer places the order. POD enables customers to receive unique designs for a variety of products. Furthermore, the target market is growing as consumers' preferences for customization and personalization increase.

Restraint:

Limited Colour Matching Capability

Due to the ongoing advancements in digital printing, it might be challenging to match Pantone colours precisely when using this method. This is a result of the variations in inks, rasterization methods, and toners used by each printing machine, which result in slight variations in colour finish when printed. Moreover, digital printing cannot replicate shiny and fluorescent colours in designs, such aspects are hindering the market growth.

Opportunity:

Rise in demand for sustainability

Businesses are placing more importance on sustainability as commercial inkjet devices become more popular because they consume less energy, generate less carbon dioxide, and are considered to contribute to cleaner air because they don't release toner dust. Furthermore, many businesses are spending money on inkjet printers to expand their product lines, personalize packaging and messaging, help customers promote their brands, and adjust to seasonal demand. Commercial printing has a bright future with these advancements in sustainable printing.

Threat:

Cost of raw materials

As the operational capacity of various firms is constrained by the rising raw material costs during the procurement process, the market is expected to hinder growth during the projection period. Paper, ink, printing supplies, and other chemical products are the raw materials used in commercial printing. Additionally, the feedstock costs are dynamic and change based on a number of socioeconomic factors, which makes it difficult for the businesses functioning in the analysed market to negotiate deals.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic restricted the target market's expansion at the peak of the outbreak. The COVID-19 epidemic significantly decreased the need for commercial printing services, which had a negative effect on the market. Additionally, the shutdown of the facilities and supporting operations had an impact on printing activities all over the world. The majority of businesses all over the world have adopted remote working, which has prompted a total shift to paperless operations. Due to worries about safety, consumers also made a big shift to digital media. These factors reduced the need for commercial printing, which had a significant influence on the market.

The Inkjet segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

As the market is being aided by rising awareness of the benefits of inkjet devices, the inkjet sector is expected to dominate the market during the anticipated period due to factors such as the ability to replace two to four toner devices with one inkjet device and the need for less people to operate them.

The Advertising segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Owing to high cost efficiency and ability to produce large quantities, the advertising segment is expected to increase the demand for commercial printers. Furthermore, the market is giving more importance to digital advertising, which is driving the advertising segment during the forecast period. And, traditionally fashion companies are opting for digital advertising because it assists in business growth on a worldwide scale.

Region with largest share:

Due to rising demand from major areas including China, India, Philippines, Vietnam, and Thailand, the Asian-Pacific region holds a significant market share. The development of the printing industry in the region is being propelled by factors like the emergence of new technology, shifting lifestyles, an increase in e-commerce and urbanisation. Furthermore, the market in the region is anticipated to benefit from the increasing demand for processed and canned food in developing nations like China and India.

Region with highest CAGR:

Because of the advancements in the print sector, such as digital technologies, particularly in China and India, are mostly accounted for the expansion in Asia Pacific region. Due to these innovations' high-speed capabilities, conventional printers have been replaced with high-tech commercial printers. Additionally, the region's booming e-commerce industry and well-organized retail sector present tremendous opportunities for packaging growth in the packaging application, supporting the target market during the projection period.
