“Manufacturers are coming up with ink solutions such as UV curable inks for the inkjet printers. This would enhance the print quality and prevent it from degrading due to UV rays. The UV curable inks also provide enhanced life to the inkjet printers. This has led to attracting customers who prefer packaging with rigid substrates such as wood, plastic, and aluminium” says an FMI analyst.

Reduced Carbon Footprint to win Water-based Inks Steady Demand

Lately, consumers and brand owners have become more conscious of their carbon footprint. This has given an edge to the water-based inks segment when compared to the other ink types which are a mixture of PVC resin and plasticiser. Water-based inks are free from ozone depleting chemicals and hydrocarbons, which is making them popular in an environment-conscious world. Since, water-based inks are free from harmful chemicals, they extend the life of the printers, thus reducing the maintenance cycles and costs.

These inks also result in improved printability as water-based-inks soak into the substrate, which makes them enhance elaborate details of design and lettering on printed products. As brands are becoming more deliberate in choosing the right ink for product packaging, this segment is projected to witness a steady growth. The segment also stands to benefit with the food and beverage brand opting for water-based inks due to their food-safe, odor-free and nontoxic attributes.
