Market Overview:
The global ink rheology modifiers 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 ink rheology modifiers from various applications, such as packaging, publishing, commercial printing, and others. In terms of type, the water-based segment is expected to dominate the global ink rheology modifiers market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its properties such as environmental friendliness and non-toxicity.
Product Definition:
Ink rheology modifiers are chemicals that are added to inks to change their physical properties. This can include changing the viscosity (the thickness of the ink), how easily it flows, or how long it takes to dry. Adding ink rheology modifiers can be important for ensuring that an ink prints correctly and does not cause any problems with the printer.
Water-based:
Water-based is a type of ink that is made from water and pigment. It has low viscosity compared to solvent-based inks, which makes them less likely to cause blockages while being used in the printing process. They are also considered as environmentally friendly products due to their non-toxic nature.
The global water based rheology modifiers market size was estimated at USD 537.1 million in 2016.
Solvent-based:
Solvent-based is a type of ink that contains pigments and fillers in a solvent. The most common solvents used are xylene, toluene, ethylbenzene and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). Solvent based inks are widely used by the screen printing industry owing to their superior properties such as quick drying time which makes them suitable for outdoor printing on fabrics.
Application Insights:
Packaging emerged as the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. The packaging industry has been witnessing significant growth due to rising consumerism in emerging economies such as China, India, Brazil and Mexico. In addition, growing demand for packaged food products is expected to boost the use of rheology modifiers in this sector over the forecast period.
The commercial printing segment was valued at USD 120 million in 2017 owing to increasing usage of inkjet printers across various industries including banking and healthcare which require high-quality documents with sharp images and smooth surfaces quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively. Commercial printing includes currency notes production by banks, cheque paper production by banks etc.
Regional Analysis:
The market in North America was valued at USD X million in 2017 and is expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period owing to the presence of major packaging, commercial printing, and others application industries. The growth can be attributed to increasing ink demand from various end-use industries such as packaging, commercial printing, and publishing. In addition, growing use of digital print technology by publishers is anticipated to propel market growth over the forecast period.
Ink rheology modifier products are used across several applications including screen printing ink for t-shirts & polos; flexographic printing for posters & flyers; gravure offset lithography for booklets & catalogs; spot color process screenprinting for sports apparel etc.
Asia Pacific accounted for a volume share of 23% in 2017 on account of rapid industrialization coupled with developing economies such as China.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for inkjet printing in packaging and commercial printing applications
- Rising demand for water-based inks over solvent-based inks
- Growing popularity of digital printing technology
- Proliferation of high performance ink rheology modifiers products
- Stringent environmental regulations governing the use of solvents
