Imaging Chemicals Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global imaging chemicals market size reached US$ 9.5 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 12.9 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.96% during 2023-2028.

Imaging chemicals help create visual images of components distribution from simultaneous measurement of spatial, spectra, and time information. They also provide numerous possibilities for better understanding of biological systems by enabling the identification of chemical components at the tissue, cellular, and subcellular levels. As a result, they are gaining traction as a popular tool for characterizing isotopic information, tracing elements, and finding organic biomarkers in fossils. Besides this, as they assist in achieving greater efficiencies by delivering clarity to the end results, applications of imaging chemicals are expanding in the medical sector across the globe.

Imaging Chemicals Market Trends:

Although the conventional printing process still dominates the market, there is a gradual rise in the adoption of digital printing worldwide. This can be attributed to its high quality, faster turnaround time, lower printing cost for smaller quantities of printing, and easy customized printing. This, coupled with the consequently escalating demand for printing inks that are used in ink cartridges, represents one of the key factors strengthening the growth of the market. Moreover, despite the fast replacement of conventional film-based photography by digital imaging several years ago, there is now a return of film-based imaging. This is increasing the utilization of film-based photography by professional photographers and positively influencing the growth of the market. Furthermore, imaging chemicals are employed in the medical industry on account of the growing geriatric population, rising prevalence of cancer and brain disorders, and rapid adoption of advanced technologies in the mining and textile sectors. Apart from this, leading players are adopting several strategies, including product launches, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and agreements to retain a competitive edge and expand their overall market share.
