Printed Signage Market Trends

• 
  

  Increasing usage of printed signage is driving the market growth

  
  

The market for printed signage is expanding primarily due to an increase in the use of printed signage over digital signage in shopping centres, retail establishments, and other locations. Market expansion is once again being driven by ease of deployment without the requirement for additional maintenance expenses. The retail sector's increasing emphasis on investing in advertising to acquire a competitive edge in the market is once more driving market expansion. For instance, Amazon secured a $400 million contract with Kornit Digital in October 2020, making it the largest print equipment sale of the year. The five-year agreement covers existing Kornit printers and ink valued at USD 250 million as well as an additional USD 150 million for potential future items. Amazon will considerably improve its on-demand printing capabilities by purchasing the kit.

The market's expansion is primarily driven by cost-effectiveness, since it provides affordable and effective signage solutions for a variety of sectors. The main factors assisting the printed signage market to endure in the face of fierce competition from the rising digital signage are the low deployment costs and longer lifespan of these types of signs. The convenience of deployment without the requirement for additional maintenance expenses is the major factor driving most organisations and companies to choose printed signage solutions.

Today, it is considerably easier to promote a brand internationally due to the widespread availability of the internet and the expansion of social media. A well-known brand identity can help expand markets and promote new product varieties that are catered to regional tastes. Brands can be effectively promoted through signage in international markets.  Whether the goal is to debut a new brand or keep an existing one in the public eye, eye-catching signage placed in prominent locations will draw attention to the brand in a neighbourhood.

Changes in the local and global economy's performance will have an impact on the demand for promotional and informative printed signage. Government and private investment in buildings and infrastructure tends to increase as economies grow, which raises the demand for informative signs. Similarly, as shops and brand owners battle for this surge in sales, consumers become more self-assured and spend more on goods and services, which increases the demand for promotional signage. Thus, driving the Printed Signage market revenue.
