Offset printing is a widely used printing technique that transfers or offsets an inked image from a plate to a rubber blanket to the printing surface, using the lithographic process which relies on the attraction of oil and water.
With its many advantages, such as faster printing process, versatility, and a higher printing quality, offset printing is a popular choice of professionals for printing large volumes of documents. Offset printing machines are available in two types: sheet-fed and web-fed. Sheet-fed presses feed individual sheets of paper while web-fed presses use continuous rolls of paper.
The growing demand for innovative printing technology in various applications
The demand for high quality text and images production is projected to increase during the forecast period, due to the growing utilization of efficient offset printing technology in various applications. Offset printers are widely used for printing products such as brochures & catalogs, company newsletters & presentations, magazines, folded brochures, files & folders, posters & banners, tabletop & tent cards, postcards, product leaflets, and others. Investment in the installation of offset printing press for quick & easy and cost-effective high volume printing jobs is driving the adoption of offset printing press across the globe.
Growing demand in the graphic application
The demand for offset printing presses in graphic applications is significantly increasing, with businesses such as printing business cards, menu cards, company presentation folders, magazines, and catalogs driving this growth. In September 2020, SOCOSPRINT PRINTERS, a French printing company that produces brochures, posters, and leaflets, invested in a new offset press with Ronald.
CEO Ajay Soni stated that this was the third offset printer installed from 2018 to 2023. The increasing demand for graphic comic novels, particularly among the younger generation, is expected to fuel the market growth over the forecast period.
The availability of digital printing press, as an alternative to offset printing press, is one of the major restraints on the growth of the market. Digital printing is a process of printing digital based images and text directly onto a variety of media substrates. These digital printing presses are much more user-friendly, easier to operate and set up than traditional offset printing presses. There is no need for printing plates, making digital printing a cost-effective choice for shorter runs and faster turnarounds.
Increasing growth of the packaging industry
The demand for packaging and printing of product details on solid boxes for storing of finished goods is creating attractive growth prospects for new manufacturers. For instance, in May 2017, VPK Group NV, a paper-based packaging company in Europe, invested USD 3.2 Million in its Meer site to install a Heidelberg XL 162 offset printing press for printing on solid board packaging and smart packaging solutions. This acquisition enabled the company to produce 50,000 tons of packaging and to provide top-quality solid board packaging from three sites.
Growing investments toward improving the environmental factors
Investment in technology for the offset printing press market is expected to create lucrative prospects for the industry in the coming years. Offset presses emit almost 80% fewer VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) than digital printing presses when used in longer runs. VOCs are inks that emit harmful gases when chemically reacting and contribute directly to climate change by trapping infrared radiation from the earth's surface. To improve this, some printing service companies are investing in the installation of drying ovens in offset presses, which helps reduce C02 emission and leads to lower energy consumption.
