Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2025-2037
Screen Printing Inks Market size was valued at USD 963.6 million in 2024 and is projected to reach a valuation of USD 2 billion by the end of 2037, rising at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-2037. In 2025, the industry size of screen printing inks is evaluated at USD 1.01 billion.
The screen printing inks market is expanding due to escalating demand from the textile, packaging, and electronics industries. Screen printing is still a popular option among manufacturers as it is versatile, durable, and can be used on many types of surfaces, such as fabric, glass, plastic, and metal. Manufacturers are concentrating on durable products that also reproduce color vibrantly and reduce volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. As regulatory demands become more stringent and customer preferences change, industry players are anticipated to focus more resources on research and development.
The sustainable transition of the printing industry and market growth is further supported by government initiatives, primarily through regulations that limit VOC use. In May 2024, Mimaki introduced paper-based carton ink cartridges, replacing traditional plastic-based cartridges in order to be more sustainable without compromising print quality. Moreover, regulations that seek to decrease waste and emissions in industrial printing are motivating manufacturers to invest in biodegradable and water-based inks.
