Uruguay Printing Machinery Market: Industry Analysis and Forecast (2022-2027) by Technology, Application, Type, and Region

Uruguay Printing Machinery Market Overview:

The printing machines business has seen a surge in revenue due to increased demand for plastic substrate. It is estimated to grow at a rate of 6.3 percent per year from 2022 to 2027, compared to 5.1 percent per year from 2012 to 2021. Variable data printing (VDP) is a marketing communication tool that allows you to tailor packaging information to target a certain cluster of people or even a single person. There has been a movement in demand from traditional printing to variable data printing and customised printing in recent years. When compared to traditional printing methods, digital printing is more cost effective. As a result, businesses may now print lower quantities of packaging with variable information, allowing for more creative packaging options. The digital printing industry has benefited from variable data printing.

Flexographic printing is being propelled forward by its use in the packaging and labelling business. Traditional printing processes such as gravure and offset have been losing market share to flexographic printing. For faster operation turnout and convenience, end users are turning to offset printing technologies for packaging and commercial printing applications.

Uruguay Printing Machinery Market Dynamics:

In recent years, barcode label printers have seen an increase in the use of Stock Keeping Units (SKUs). Because of a surge in the creation of false and counterfeit goods as well as robberies of valuables, this category of labels is growing. Customers of barcode printers will also benefit from the ability to manage stocks.

Because of its numerous advantages over traditional printing technology, the use of digital printers has expanded tremendously. Digital printers are also chosen since they can print on a variety of substrates. In the future, the trend of substrate printing on aluminium, glass, and wood will open up opportunities for non-label printing.

Inks designed expressly for digital printing machines enable converters and print service providers (PSPs) to meet their clients' high-impact packaging needs. The advantages of digital presses over traditional presses in terms of turnaround time have led to widespread adoption of digital printing in the prime label sector. Demand from packaging converters and consumer brands for customised marketing messages has resulted in increased prospects for the digital printing industry and digital ink manufacturers in the packaging market.

The abrupt outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in widespread closures of labelling, office stationery, books and periodicals, and a variety of other applications, all of which had a negative influence on the printing machinery market. According to the World Bank, losses during COVID-19 were more than US$ 20 trillion. Because of the disruption of supply chains, which originally resulted in the entire closure of production units owing to the emergence of a lethal virus, demand for printing machinery fell. Because of their low profit margins, middle and small size firms were first the hardest hit. However, as the virus spread over the world, demand for printing equipment fell dramatically. In 2021, it resulted in an overall revenue decline of over -2.1 percent of market value.

Uruguay Printing Machinery Market Segment Analysis:

By Substrate Type, Uruguay Printing Machinery Market is segmented by Plastic, Paper & Paperboard, Metal and Other Substrates (Wood, Glass, Fabric). Paper and paperboard are widely used in markets such as commercial printing, newspaper & magazines, books, packaging, and labelling, accounting for more than 58 percent of market share in 2021. Demand for paper and paperboard substrate has expanded tremendously across Uruguay, entirely transforming the packaging sector. The adoption of paper and paperboard substrate has mostly been influenced by numerous qualities such as ease of storage and handling. As a result, by the end of 2026, the use of paper and paperboard substrate in printing machinery will have increased by 1.4 times and will have lost -170 BPS.

By End-Use, Uruguay Printing Machinery Market is segmented by Commercial, Publication and Packaging. Packaging held the largest market share of the Uruguay printing machines in 2021, Due to high demand in applications such as packaging and labelling, packaging will continue to lead the end-user market sector of the target market. For the forecast period of 2022-2027, the publication and commercial categories will present respective incremental opportunities of US$ 1,058.0 Mn. and US$ 960.4 Mn. Government spending on manufacturing value added sectors has increased dramatically in emerging nations in recent years, with the packaging end-use segment predicted to grow at a rate of 1.3 times its current market value.
