Flexographic ink is a type of printing ink specifically designed for the flexographic printing process, commonly used in the packaging industry. It is a water-based or solvent-based ink that adheres well to various substrates like paper, cardboard, plastics, and metals. Flexographic printing is known for its high-speed capabilities, making it ideal for large-scale printing applications. The ink’s composition ensures quick drying and excellent print quality, while advancements in the industry have led to the development of eco-friendly formulations to meet sustainability demands.
The flexographic ink market was projected to reach USD 4.16 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 4.89% between 2017 and 2022. The various end-use applications of flexographic ink include corrugated cardboards, flexible packaging, folding cartons, and tags & labels. The current demand of flexographic ink in the packaging, publication, and commercial sectors is driving the flexographic ink market. The demand for flexographic ink has increased in recent years due to their increased consumption by the growing packaging industry in the Asia-Pacific region. This increased consumption can be attributed to the region’s rising population, which has, in turn, contributed to the growth of the Asia-Pacific flexographic ink market.
