Key Ink Resins Market Trend

The growth of UV-cured resins in the production of 3D printing will fuel global market growth. The global printing ink market is growing at a CAGR of 4.92% and is expected to witness high demand during the forecast period. This rapid growth is due to the growth in the flexible packaging segment, along with other packaging materials. The growth of the printing ink market has become a major driving factor for manufacturers as they are exploring different and creative strategies to enhance the quality of packaging, thereby attracting end-users. The continuous advancements in the field of 3D printing have led to increased use of UV-curable resins in window graphics, banners, billboards, indoor signage, posters, and more. 3D systems, being a primary pioneer, produces a range of technologies, including fused deposition modelling (FDM), selective laser sintering (SLS), stereolithography, and multijet printing (MJP). Among these technologies, stereolithography is known for using UV curing extensively. Further, recent activities include the application of 3D systems for patents regarding radiation-curable compositions.

Key Ink Resins Market Challenge

Adverse effects of cost are the major challenge for global market growth. Recently, there has been a change in the geopolitical situation, which has led to an increase in trade barriers among certain countries. The recent political changes in the US and the UK are facilitating uncertainty in trade policies. The fluctuation of currency for many developing countries such as India and China, with respect to the US dollar, is affecting the global market. These factors will affect the market as manufacturers are changing their locations. Moreover, the market is affected because of the lack of pigment intermediates. The increase in the cost of sea freight has led to a reduction in supply and a reduction of available shipping routes. In addition, the dependence on countries such as China and India for major raw materials and intermediates has become a major concern. The bankruptcy of HANJIN SHIPPING, the largest container shipping bankruptcy in history, caused further pressure. Additionally, it is seen that the time of transfer on shipments from India and China has increased, although there is a decline in the number of routes and frequency. These factors are the major concerns according to the perception of the supply chain.
