Market Segmentation by Countries

According to Ravi Bhandari, Head of Research, 6Wresearch, The United States is poised to dominate the industry due to its large-scale adoption of advanced VDP technologies and a robust presence of key industry players. The country’s diverse range of applications—from direct mail to personalized marketing—drives substantial demand for variable data printing solutions. On the other hand, Canada, while smaller in market size compared to the U.S., is experiencing notable growth. This growth is fueled by increasing adoption of personalized marketing strategies and advancements in digital printing technologies. As a result, while the U.S. remains the leading market segment, Canada is expected to see a significant upward trajectory, contributing to a dynamic and evolving industry landscape in North America.

Market Segmentation by Label Type

In terms of label type, Release Liner labels have dominated the market due to their established use in various industries, such as retail and logistics, where the liner helps with ease of application and protection during handling. However, the Linerless label segment is anticipated to experience significant growth in the coming years. This growth is driven by increasing demand for more sustainable and cost-effective labeling solutions. Linerless labels, which eliminate the need for a backing liner, align with growing environmental concerns and the need for reducing waste. Additionally, advancements in printing technology and the ability of linerless labels to offer improved efficiency and lower overall costs make them a compelling choice for businesses seeking to optimize their labeling processes. As a result, while Release Liner labels will continue to hold a substantial share of the market, Linerless labels are projected to see a robust increase in adoption and market share.

Market Segmentation by Composition

In terms of composition, currently, the facestock segment is likely to dominate the industry due to its essential role in the VDP process. This segment benefits from a broad range of applications across various sectors, including retail, logistics, and packaging, which drive demand for diverse facestock options. However, the topcoat segment is expected to experience significant growth. This growth is driven by the increasing need for enhanced print quality, protection, and performance, particularly in sectors requiring high durability and aesthetic appeal.

Market Segmentation by Printing Technology

In terms of printing technology, Electrophotography, often associated with laser printing, is currently leading the market due to its high-quality output and efficiency for short-run jobs. This technology is widely used in applications such as direct mail and personalized marketing materials. However, Inkjet technology is anticipated to experience significant growth in the industry. Inkjet printing's versatility and cost-effectiveness for both short and long runs are driving its adoption in a range of applications, from packaging to promotional materials. On the other hand, Thermal Transfer and Direct Thermal technologies, while still important, are expected to have a more niche presence, with Thermal Transfer being used for applications requiring durable labels and Direct Thermal being favored for its simplicity and cost-effectiveness in specific sectors like retail and logistics.
