The hottest global digital packaging and labels wi

The global digital packaging and labeling industry will grow at a rate of more than 20%

the survey report shows that the global digital printing, packaging and labeling industry market value reached US $4.8 billion in 2011. By 2016, this figure is expected to be close to US $12.2 billion. The United States proposes to maintain a global leading position in the fields of nano materials, biomaterials, optoelectronic materials, microelectronic materials, extreme environmental materials and semiconductor materials; The EU's strategic goal is to maintain its leading edge in aerospace materials and other fields; Germany ranks new materials as the first of the nine key development areas, with a compound annual growth rate of 20.6% over the five years. It is equivalent to 37 billion prints of A4 size paper produced in 2011 and 75.9 billion prints in 2016

last year, North America was the most prosperous region in the global digital printing and packaging industry, followed by Asia. It is expected that the developing countries in these two regions will grow from a low level. From 2011 to 2016, the compound annual growth rate of Turkey, China, India and Brazil will exceed 30%. At present, electrostatic imaging technology accounts for the vast share of the label market in the linkage research market of all links of digital packaging and printing. It is expected that inkjet printing technology will catch up in the total printing volume and market value by the end of 2016

the reason for this growth is that due to the change of packaging customer demand, the decentralized market with multiple styles and sizes is moving closer to the direction of short version and economical digital technology. Manufacturers of digital printing and post press technology are also striving to make their equipment better in speed, quality and stability, which is also the unique advantage of digital printing in the competition with traditional printing. At present, the Ministry of industry and information technology has taken the lead in preparing the new version of the "medium and long term development plan for the automotive industry", and then used this measurement benchmark to measure the size of the friction surface. The HP indigo and Saikang narrow web printing system is said to be more economical than the flexible printing machine within 7000 meters. The target market of the new B2 format sheet fed inkjet printing machine and toner mode equipment is the packaging box, Jetpressf, such as Fujifilm, can work with novel water-based UV inks, pushing quality to new heights

the label market following packaging boxes, flexible packaging, metal packaging and hard plastic also has great potential. In 2011, it accounted for only 1.59% of the $300billion packaging market and only 0.63% of the total printing volume. By 2016, this figure will also increase, and the total printing volume is expected to exceed 1%

in the field of commercial printing, digital printing products have begun to expand, but they are not applied in all packaging and label markets, so the application level is relatively low. The economic operation cost of short edition, the proven high quality, the characteristics of on-demand printing, the advantages of personalized printing, and the connection with post press have all been proved to be a strong impetus to the needs of packaging customers

the development of inkjet printing technology closely follows the electrostatic imaging technology, and has begun to play an important role in the label printing industry. Label digital printing, corrugated paper box lithography inkjet printing, as well as flexible packaging and metal packaging have begun to be applied. In the exchange activities held by HP in early 2012 in druba, the relevant person in charge said that HP brand's high-performance inkjet printing system has begun to replace the silk printing technology in visual communication in large quantities, and now began to enter the packaging industry
