Market Overview:
The global direct thermal printers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for direct thermal printers from various end-use industries, such as transportation and logistics, manufacturing, and retail. In addition, the growing demand for mobile type direct thermal printers is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
A direct thermal printer is a type of thermal printer that prints by heating up small dots of cyan, magenta, and yellow dye on a special heat-sensitive paper. The paper is then passed through the printer's platen, which presses it against the ribbon so that the dye transfers to the page.
Desktop type:
The global desktop type market size was valued at USD 1.6 billion in 2016 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for thermal printers, which are used for printing images and text on various substrates such as metal, glass, wood or plastic with the help of a heated printable surface or platen.
Mobile type:
Mobile type is a term used for the direct thermal printers that directly print on the printing material without using an intermediate transfer system. The mobile printer uses a heated roll of paper to print images and text directly on the printing material. Mobile printers are usually smaller in size as they do not require large storage space or complex mechanisms, which makes them portable and suitable for small business owners who need to print promotional materials at trade shows & events or advertise products in retail stores.
Application Insights:
The manufacturing segment dominated the global direct thermal printers market in 2017. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing demand for DTPs from various industries such as automotive, medical and packaging among others. In addition, transportation & logistics is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing application segment over the forecast period owing to an increase in production levels across several industries worldwide.
The retail sector also accounted for a significant share of revenue on account of high adoption rates across several applications including point-of-sale systems and inventory management systems among others. Furthermore, growing penetration DLP/DLP based cash deposit machines globally is expected to drive demand over the forecast period further driving growth in retail industry worldwide which will result into increased adoption rate globally.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing industrialization, rising disposable income, and expanding manufacturing sector. China is one of the largest markets for direct thermal printers in Asia Pacific due to rapid industrialization along with a large population base that requires printing solutions on a large scale.
The European market held significant share as well as it was one of the largest regions for DTPs across the globe. This can be attributed to growing adoption by businesses for effective communication and collaboration tools at work place along with high purchasing power of consumers in countries like Germany, U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for low-cost and high-quality printing solutions
- Growing popularity of direct thermal printers in retail and hospitality sectors
- Rising demand for portable and lightweight printers
- Proliferation of mobile devices and BYOD trend driving the need for more efficient printing solutions
- Increasing adoption of cloud-based printing solutions
