Market Overview:
The global thin papers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for thin papers from printing and publishing, packaging and labeling, and other applications. Thin papers are used in a wide range of applications such as printing & publishing, packaging & labeling, note taking, stationery items, etc. They are also used as substrates for various types of printing processes such as gravure printing, flexographic printing, digital printing (inkjet), etc., owing to their excellent printability properties.
Product Definition:
Thin papers are usually used to print flyers, brochures, and other short-run documents. They are less expensive than thicker paper stocks, but they may not be as durable.
30 Grams Per Square Meter (gsm) is a unit of measurement for paper density. It was developed by the International Paper Company in the early 20th century, and has since been adopted as a standard by most manufacturers worldwide. The 30 gsm paper is very thin; it measures approximately 1/32nd inch thick.
Thin papers are used extensively in packaging applications such as food packaging, tissue & toilet paper, cigarette filters, etc.
30-40 gsm:
30-40 gsm is the weight of a paper, which is taken as a standard weight for thin papers. Thin papers are generally used in packaging and printing applications. 30-40 gsm paper has less thickness than A4 size but more than ISO format (JIS) and can be customized as per customer requirements.
Thin papers are generally used in packaging purposes such as food packaging, stationery, envelopes, etc.
Application Insights:
The packaging and labeling application segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 30% in 2017. The demand is expected to be driven by the rising use of flexible packaging products, such as thin paper sheets, in food & beverage, personal care and pharmaceutical industries. In addition, increasing consumption of alcoholic and non-alcoholic packaged drinks is likely to propel industry growth over the forecast period.
Thin paper sheets are used for various applications including printing & publishing (newspapers/ magazines), advertising (billboards/ posters), promotional activities (toys) at events & exhibitions or within commercial premises e.g., shops where a large number of leaflets are distributed among consumers or pedestrians waiting to purchase a product from an establishment every day during business hours without occupying much space or requiring much manpower on site during event management operations.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is home to some of the largest packaging & labeling, printing & Publishing, and automotive industries. The presence of a large number of small-scale manufacturers in this region has led to an increase in supply options for Thin Papers Ltd., thus making it one of the most preferred suppliers by end-use industries across all regions.
The Asia Pacific regional market was followed by Europe with a share of 24.1%in terms of revenue in 2017 owing to high demand from several major application sectors including printing & Publishing, packaging & labeling, and others that are witnessing growth due to technological advancements coupled with increased consumer awareness regarding sustainability issues associated with plastic products.
North America emerged as one among the top three markets for thin papers globally after Asia Pacific.
