Stakeholders in the sign and display market can look back on the past 18 months and note solid growth attributed to the steady and measured ascent of digital printing. Globally, we witnessed the continued adoption and embrace of digital as innovative new technologies helped print providers convert analog pages to generate new business and increase opportunities with existing clients.
Industry reports noted that high-end digital printing equipment sales reached record levels in the past year. As screen and offset technologies decline, analog manufacturers are increasingly focused on reducing costs for short runs. Meanwhile, digital UV and latex technologies are quickly gaining ground and reaching new levels of productivity and quality.
The financial climate has also pushed print providers to reduce costs and improve efficiency, while simultaneously finding new revenue with higher-value added services.
