Printing in the US
Competition is high in this industry, and the market is narrowing as digital technology and e-commerce become more prevalent. Paper prices are also expected to rise, forcing wholesalers to raise prices to maintain profit margins. Nevertheless, there are opportunities for printers to cater to niche markets, and state-of-the-art technology can deliver labor efficiencies.
Companies in this industry are primarily engaged in printing on paper, textile products, metal, glass, plastic and other materials, with the exception of fabric. The industry covers a variety of different printing processes, including lithographic, gravure, screen, flexographic, digital and letterpress. This industry does not include publishers that also perform printing, nor does it include companies that perform prepress or postpress services without traditional printing.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
