Digital Inks Market: By Substrate, By Formulation, By Application and Geography  

Digital Inks Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Substrate (Ceramics & Glass, Paper, Plastics and Textiles), By Formulation (UV-Cured, Solvent-Based, Water-Based and Others), By Application (Publication, Packaging, Glass Printing, Clothing & Household Textiles, Ceramic Tiles Printing, Advertising & Promotion and Others) and Region  

Digital Inks Market size is valued at US$ 3.262.3 million in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 9.3% from 2024-2030. The global market provides a detailed overview of the digital inks market size and that can be segmented by substrate, formulation, and Application. By substrate, the Digital Inks market growth has been segmented into Ceramics & Glass, Paper, Plastics, and Textiles. The plastics segment is likely to be the largest and fastest-growing segment in terms of the substrate. Plastics are appropriate substrates for printing, as they have resilience, strength, flexibility, protective, and durability properties. Wide-format UV-curable ink-jet technologies, like digital cut-sheet and digital roll-to-roll, are accustomed to printing on plastics digitally. Numerous plastic substrates utilized for digital printing comprise polyester, rigid vinyl, polycarbonate, polystyrene acrylic, and cast vinyl.

Based on Formulation, the Digital Inks market is segmented into UV-cured, Solvent-Based, Water-Based, and Others. Among these, the Solvent-Based segment is expected to have the fastest-growing market during the forecast period 2022-2028. Solvent-based digital inks behave as carriers transporting the pigment to the substrate. These inks also support melting the substrate's surface. Ink dyes enter the softened surface to thrive in the inner substrate layer. Subsequently, the solvent evaporates so that the pigment is imprinted into the substrate's surface to generate an image that is weather and scratch-resistant. Solvent-based digital inks are frequently utilized with a spread of substrates comprising inexpensive uncoated media. Based on the Application, the Digital Inks market is segmented into Publication, Packaging, Glass Printing, Clothing & Household Textiles, Ceramic Tiles Printing, Advertising & Promotion, and Others. The Advertising & Promotion segment is expected to have a significant share in 2021. The food services industry and restaurants use wide-format graphics which is digitally printed to increase sales and create awareness about food products.

Digital Inks Market Key Development:
  • In June 2020, PV Nano Cell Ltd. launched a novel, all-purpose conductive gold ink for aerosol and inkjet printing.
  • In January 2020, Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. launched the MGI JETvarnish 3D One. This digital embellishment press offers sensory print for printers of every size.
