The print label market encompasses various materials, such as paper, plastic film, cloth, metal, or other materials, that are affixed to containers or products to provide printed information or symbols. These labels can also have information directly printed on the container or article. In 2023, the flexography segment held the largest market share in the print label industry. The market for flexography labels was estimated at USD 17.9 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 23.2 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% during the forecast period.
Flexography is a printing process that utilizes pliable relief or raised image plates. Unlike the rotogravure printing process that employs etched metal cylinders, flexo label printing uses rubber or polymer plastic plates, making flexo plates more flexible and cost-effective compared to the rigid metal tubes used in gravure. Significant innovations in the prepress, press parts, and ink technologies have contributed to the growth of the flexography label market.
On the other hand, the inkjet segment is expected to witness the fastest-growing CAGR over the forecast period. Moving on to label formats, the pressure-sensitive labels (PSL) segment held the largest market share in 2023. The market for pressure-sensitive labels was estimated at USD 16.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 22.8 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period. Pressure-sensitive labels consist of five layers, including liner, release coat, adhesive, face stock, and topcoat. They are similar to high-tech stickers and can use various materials like paper, film, and foil, offering the flexibility to produce vibrant colors using different inks. However, the linerless labels segment is expected to exhibit the fastest-growing CAGR over the forecast period.
In terms of industry segments, the beverage industry held the largest market share in 2023 and is projected to be the fastest-growing segment, with a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period. The market for print labeling in the beverage industry was estimated at USD 13.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 18.5 billion by 2029. This growth can be attributed to the increasing trend of personalized labeling in the beverage industry, as manufacturers seek new ways to present their products and establish unique brand identities. Consequently, there is a continuous need for the development and expansion of new labeling technologies.
The Asia-Pacific region dominated the print label market in 2023 and is anticipated to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period. The market in the Asia-Pacific region was estimated at USD 22.1 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 30.5 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 4.7%. China, being the largest economy in the region, has attracted significant interest from companies operating in the print label industry.
