Label & Packaging Study
Label and packaging converters worldwide spent $201 million
on new color digital label and packaging (CDLP) printing presses
in 2012 according to InfoTrends. This digital press market will
grow strongly, InfoTrends says, with a 17.7 percent compound
annual growth rate in digital press revenues expected between
2012 and 2017. The market is based on the success of narrow
web color electrophotographic (EP) and color inkjet presses for
printing product labels and, to a much smaller extent, folding
cartons and flexible packaging.
InfoTrends' CDLP Press Market Forecast: 2012-2017 estimates
and forecasts the regional and world markets for CDLP presses,
based on EP and single pass inkjet print technology for the years
2012 through 2017. It includes both a detailed written report
and an extensive pivot table version of the forecast in all its elements and segmentation.
