Post-press Digitalization
Home>>Blog>>Application>>Post-press Digitalization
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a dramatic loss of human life worldwide and presents a huge challenge to public health and the world of work. The shutdown of public transportation, containment and distance measurement lead to more and more people work at home, and digital means are taken in work. Work in cloud is popular now.
As for printing industry, we also see the rise of digital printing because the market need short-run printing, flexible supply capacity and on-time delivery. The tremendous changes bring great business opportunities too.
At the same time, the printing industry face fierce competition with low profit. New players come in while a lot of old players kick out.
We have seen vast varieties of similar products come out in the same place at the same time. Brands consider how to attract consumers’ attention and speed up their sales. How to do it?
The printing finishes stand out, especially the spot UV and foiling on printings make a big difference. Moreover, the post-press industry grow very fast and contribute to a large amount of profit.
In 2017 the post-press reached 900 million US dollars while in 2020 it reached 1.3 billion US dollars with compound annual growth rate at 14%. We also see 30% of printings have at least one finish, of which 0.5% belongs to digital enhancement. The compound annual growth rate of digital enhancement reached 27%, faster than post-press.
We also see customers are willing to pay 24%-89% extra to do digital enhancement finish on basis of CMYK printings, which means the marginal profit reach 50%~400%.
Banny Landa has a very famous saying: Everything that can be digital will become digital. Printing is not an exception. We can definitely say that post-press is not an exception either.
