DUBLIN , Jan. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Digital Printing for Tableware Market by Application, Ink type and Region - Forecast to 2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global Digital Printing for Tableware market is projected to reach USD 452 million by 2029 from USD 326 million in 2024; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2024 to 2029.

The convergence of technological advancements and increasing consumer demand for personalized and unique tableware products is fueling this growth trajectory. Several factors contribute to the optimistic outlook for this market. Firstly, the shift toward digital printing techniques in the tableware industry offers unparalleled customization capabilities, allowing for intricate designs, patterns, and personalization on various tableware items. This trend resonates strongly with consumers seeking distinctive and bespoke dining experiences. Furthermore, the growing awareness and emphasis on sustainable practices in manufacturing are driving the adoption of digital printing for tableware. This technology enables efficient use of resources, reduces waste, and supports the utilization of eco-friendly materials, aligning with the preferences of environmentally conscious consumers.

Increased demand for sustainable printing to drive the growth of Digital Printing for Tableware market

Sustainable printing helps reduce the adverse impact on the environment. It uses recycled and renewable resources, e.g., process-free plates, such as cold press plates, to help eliminate volatile compounds. The adoption of digital printing has been on the rise due to its divergence from traditional printing methods. Unlike conventional printing, digital printing operates without film plates or photo chemicals, streamlining the pre-press stages between the digital document file and the final printed output. This elimination of plate replacement leads to significant time and resource savings. The utilization of digital printers not only enhances operational efficiency but also contributes positively to a company's environmental footprint. Moreover, digital presses stand out for their eco-friendly attributes as they don't emit harmful substances, thus obviating the need for the ventilation systems required by offset presses. Consequently, this results in reduced overall energy consumption. Furthermore, aligning with the principles of sustainable printing that advocate for the use of recycled materials, digital presses demonstrate versatility by accommodating a wide array of recycled substrates for printing purposes.

Digital printing for tableware is more sustainable than traditional methods, such as screen printing and decaling, because it uses less water and energy and it produces less waste. Screen printing and decaling both require the use of large amounts of water for rinsing and cleaning. Digital printing, on the other hand, does not require any water for cleaning. This is because digital printers use inkjet technology to print directly onto the tableware surface. Also, screen printing and decaling are both energy-intensive processes. Digital printing is more energy-efficient because it does not require the use of heat or chemicals to transfer the design onto the tableware. Furthermore, screen printing and decaling both produce a significant amount of waste, including printing plates, inks, and adhesives. Digital printing produces very little waste, as the inkjet printer only prints the design that is needed.

The Ceramic and porcelain segment held the largest market in 2023

Digital printing for ceramic and porcelain tableware involves leveraging advanced printing techniques to intricately apply high-quality designs onto surfaces made of these materials. This contemporary method has gained significant traction in the tableware sector due to its capacity for customization, intricate graphics, and streamlined production processes. Employing inkjet printing technology, digital printing for ceramic and porcelain tableware ensures precise and elaborate images directly onto the items' surfaces. Specially crafted inks, often UV-curable, enable rapid drying and hardening upon exposure to ultraviolet light. This swift curing process is pivotal for maintaining efficiency along the production line. Digital printing caters to a range of ceramic and porcelain materials commonly used in crafting tableware, encompassing plates, bowls, mugs, and various other items.

The UV ink segment, of Digital printing for tableware market by ink type is expected to hold largest market share during the forecast period

UV ink formulated for digital printing on tableware denotes a specialized ink tailored for use in digital printing procedures, leveraging ultraviolet (UV) light to swiftly cure or dry the ink. Widely embraced in the customization and embellishment of diverse tableware categories like plates, bowls, mugs, and items crafted from materials such as ceramics, glass, and porcelain, this technology boasts rapid curative properties upon UV light exposure. The swift curing mechanism ensures immediate ink drying and solidification, streamlining production timelines significantly. Characterized by robust adhesion capabilities, these inks effectively bond with tableware surfaces, yielding resilient prints against regular use and washing. Renowned for their capacity to yield vivid and top-tier colors, UV inks empower the replication of intricate, finely detailed designs marked by exceptional color richness and saturation.
