Ink Resins Market Insights and Forecast -2027

Ink resins are a specific category of resins used in the manufacture of printing inks. These resins are added in order to make superior quality inks with better appearance. They improve the flowing ability of the ink by providing optimum viscosity. The pigments also provide durability and long lasting adhesion to the surface. Moreover, the ink resins add gloss, stability and dispersion properties to the ink and also increase the drying speed. The ink resins are widely used for the production of inks used in printing and publication, for printing paper board and cartons and also in flexible packaging.

COVID-19 scenario analysis:

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the global ink resins market to a great extent.

• The outbreak of the global pandemic caused a decrease in the disposable income among the consumers. As a result, the demand for various retail products and packaged food decreased and consequently the demand for ink resins for printing also went down.
• Due to the lockdowns imposed by the governments, several manufacturing facilities had to lower their production or in some cases stop the production activities, which resulted in a significant decrease in the demand for ink resins in the market.

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact Analysis

A major factor that contributed to the escalating demand for ink resins is the rapid growth of the print media and commercial and industrial prints. Moreover, flexible packaging sector is gaining traction due to the requirement to provide all the necessary information about the contents on the package, especially in the food and beverages industry. In addition, the quality of ink used on the packaging including the color and appearance is very critical for gaining the attention of the consumers. Thus, most of the major companies tend to use better quality inks for the packaging and labeling of their products. The shift of the consumers toward packaged food and other retailed products along with the necessity to maintain proper sentiment for the brand among the consumers toward the product is expected to fuel the need for better quality printing inks in the market. The extensive R&D on newer printing technologies such as inkjet and offset also provide opportunities for the growth of the ink resins market. However, the fluctuating prices of the raw materials might restrain the growth of the market.

The market in the Asia-Pacific region holds a significant share of the global printing inks market due to the high population density and the massive market for packaged food and retail products that require huge volume of printing inks for the packaging. The market in the North America region is also expected to grow significantly with the U.S. leading the market.
