Market Overview:
The global ink wetting and dispersing agent 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 printing inks across different applications, such as packaging, publishing, commercial printing, and others. In addition, the growing demand for UV-cured inks is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Ink wetting and dispersing agents are chemicals that are used to improve the flow of ink through a pen's feed system and to help keep the ink particles evenly dispersed. Inexpensive, low-viscosity inks can be difficult to move through a pen's feed system, and an ink wetting and dispersing agent can help by making the ink more fluid. Ink that is not well dispersed can form clumps or specks in the writing stream, which can lead to poor printing quality.
Solvent-based:
Solvent-based is a type of coating agent that contains at least one solvent. The most commonly used solvents are water, alcohols, and glycol ethers. These agents are used to coat paper or any other material with ink by dissolving the resin in them and then they can be applied to the material as a liquid or solution.
Water-based:
Water-based inks are used for printing on paper, plastics, and other non-resilient materials. They are produced by the interaction of water with ink ingredients such as vegetable oil or synthetic oils. The most commonly used water-based inks include lithographic and flexographic printing inks.
Application Insights:
Packaging emerged as the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The rising demand for flexible packaging solutions, coupled with increasing consumer disposable income levels in developing countries such as India and China, is anticipated to drive growth over the forecast period.
The commercial printing segment was valued at USD 120.0 million in 2017 owing to high product usage across various industries including healthcare, banking, retail & e-commerce businesses for brochures, magazines & pamphlets among others. Inks used are water-based or solvent based depending upon their characteristics required by different applications like offset printing or digital printing respectively.
Regional Analysis:
North America was the largest market for inks and accounted for over 35% of global revenue in 2017. The region is expected to witness a moderate growth rate over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from packaging, commercial printing, and publishing applications. In North America, U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for inkjet printing technology
- Rising demand from packaging and labeling industry
- Growing popularity of digital printing technology
- Proliferation of online shopping and e-commerce portals
- Rising disposable income and purchasing power of consumers
