Market Overview:
The global thermal disc 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 thermal disc printers from government agencies, broadcasting and television, education, and others applications. In terms of type, the direct thermal printing segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global thermal disc printers market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its low cost as compared to other types of printing technologies and its ability to produce high-quality prints.
Product Definition:
A thermal disc printer is a printing device that prints information onto discs. The importance of thermal disc printers is that they are able to print high-quality images quickly and easily. Thermal disc printers are often used for printing photographs or other images.
Direct Thermal Printing:
Direct thermal printing is a process of printing images on any material by using heat from a printhead. It’s an older technology but has been around for decades and is still used in many applications. The most common use of this technique is to print onto t-shirts, bags, cans, metal sheets and other flexible materials with the help of portable printers or fixed installations like kiosks at public places.
Thermal Retransfer & Dye-sublimation Printing:
Thermal retransfer & dye-sublimation printing is a technology used in thermal disc printers. It prints images and text on flexible vinyl films using heat generated by a laser beam. Thermal transfer printing can be used for various applications such as labels, advertising campaigns, packaging materials, etc. The main advantage of this technique is that the image or text remains visible even after it has been printed on the surface of the material and has been given an additional layer of protection from UV rays.
Application Insights:
The others application segment includes advertising, promotion, and packaging. The segment dominated the global market in 2017 owing to high demand from various industries such as food & beverage, retail, hospitality and healthcare. In addition, the thermal transfer printers are used for direct marketing through outdoor advertising or print advertisements in magazines and newspapers. This is expected to drive product demand over the forecast period.
The government agency application segment accounted for a significant share of 23% in 2017 due to increasing use of these devices by local authorities for printing passports and identity cards on security paper with enhanced security features such as micro-lettering and raised ink spots on documents that cannot be copied from original documents. In addition, these devices are used by banks for printing cheque books which are then distributed among customers who request them at ATM machines or cash deposit machines located either at banks or ATMs themselves.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific regional market dominated the global thermal disc printers industry in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of a large number of players coupled with cheap labor costs, availability of raw materials, and high demand from various end-use industries are some major factors contributing to the growth of this region.
The Asia Pacific regional market is also home to several emerging economies such as China, India, Indonesia etc., which have been experiencing strong economic growth over the past few years. These countries are adopting western culture and lifestyle at an unprecedented rate due to which there has been a significant rise in demand for consumer electronics products such as laptops & tablets among other things that use these thermal transfer technologies.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for thermal disc printers from small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) due to their low cost of ownership and easy operability.
- Proliferation of mobile devices and the BYOD trend is expected to drive the demand for thermal disc printers as they offer a fast, reliable, and low-cost printing solution for on-the-go users.
- The increasing popularity of online shopping is fueling the demand for thermal disc printers as they are used extensively in ecommerce applications for printing shipping labels and barcodes.
- Rapid advancements in technology are resulting in new applications areas for thermal disc printers such as healthcare, where they are being used to print patient identification cards, medication labels, etcetera .
