1 POD & CDLP China 2016 Digital Production Printing, Print On Demand, and Color Digital Label & Package Printing Market Opportunities in China Production Printing & Media

2 P O D & C D L P C h i n a Introduction InfoTrends longstanding research into the Print on Demand market in China continues this year but will have an important addition, a focus on the market in that country for color digital print systems that print packaging and labels. Thus this year s report on China will include both a detailed forecast for Digital Production Printing technology used for commercial printing and a separate forecast for Color Digital Label and Packaging printing. This new report will give qualitative and quantitative insights about two categories of digital printing in China. In keeping with the extra focus this year on packaging and label uses, research for the 2016 report will include a survey of packaging and label converters, and also of commercial printers. That survey, as well as personal interviews and other research, will examine the status and prospect of packaging and label printing applications at converters in China, and will also gauge the interest in such applications on the part of commercial printers there. The new report, POD & CDLP China 2016, will give clients a close view of the POD market in China and also the status and prospect of production level digital printing there for packaging and label uses. Project Objectives To estimate and forecast for the years the Digital Production Printing market in China and also the Color Digital Label and Packaging market To identify and explain market trends in China for production level digital technology for commercial printing, and in particular for packaging and label converting To advise clients about key production digital printing markets in China and give insights to help clients compete effectively there Research Methodology InfoTrends study methodology will encompass primary and secondary research, coupled with analysis of market news and trends.
