Sustainable Solutions in the Printing Inks Market: A Comprehensive Analysis

Printing inks have evolved significantly over the centuries, adapting to technological advancements and shifting consumer demands. As of 2018, the global consumption of printing inks exceeded 3.5 million tons. Gravure, flexographic, and offset lithography printing technologies dominated the market, accounting for over two-thirds of total consumption. However, digital printing, a relatively recent innovation, is poised to exhibit the fastest growth. This surge is attributed to the demand for quick, consistent color printing and the shift from analogue to digital processes, which offer cost-efficiency and short-run capabilities.
