Restraints & Challenges:
  • Environmental regulation
  • Lack of product with  ability to withstand harsh climatic condition

Market Drivers:

Growing innovation in digital print technology is driving growth of the print label market. For instance, in November 2020, West Michigan Rum Company’s Burl & Sprig opted for digital printing being done on Distillery’s glass bottles. With art and artistry as key components of the Burl & Sprig brand story, having beautiful bottles for their premium spirits was a top priority. For this, the brand worked with Berlin Packaging's design division, Studio One Eleven.

Increasing penetration of organized retail formats such as hypermarkets and supermarkets and e-commerce, the processed and packaged food market is driving growth of the print label market. According to the US Census Bureau, in the last quarter of 2020, adjusted US retail e-commerce sales amounted to over USD 206.6 billion.

Market Restraints:

Lack of product with ability to withstand harsh climatic conditions is expected to hinder the growth of print label market. Most of the label is made of paper and film face stocks. Paper film stocks are susceptible to the elements than specialty films. For example, the paper isn’t waterproof. Certain labels are made with wet strength paper that slows the penetration of water, but even those will eventually become saturated.

Labelling pertaining to environmental regulations is another key factor expected to restrict the market growth. For instance, if a label remains on an item during recycling, it will hinder the recyclability of the item.

Market Opportunities:

Rapid growth of food &beverage industry coupled with the increasing usage of print labels in the food &beverage industry is expected to offer potential growth opportunities over the forecast period. Moreover, growing health conscious consumers is increasing widespread adoption of print labels in food &beverage industry.

Growing funding in research &development activities for innovating digital printing label are again positively contributing to the market growth. For instance, in May 2021, Print-Leeds has recently launched a self-adhesive label division after investing £1m in a new printing press, finishing equipment and MIS system.

Market Trends/Key Takeaways:

Growing trend of go-green is raising adoption of environment-friendly labels by various companies. Rising awareness regarding sustainability of packaging and label is propelling growth of the environmentally friendly label, thus augmenting market growth.

Rising popularity of smart labels as they offer real-time information about the products is expected to uplift the market growth over the forecast period. The ability of smart labels to provide additional real-time information about the product is finding new applications in the various end-user verticals. The networked devices, IoT, and IIoT, are expected to create huge opportunities in the future, as these innovations make communication between non-electronic commodities and equipment a possibility.
