The on-demand printing revolution in the e-commerce era

The biggest pain point currently faced by the packaging and printing industry is the contradiction between the high cost of small batch orders and long-term delivery. Traditional printing methods, due to high plate making costs and large minimum order quantities (usually starting from 5000 sheets), force small and medium-sized e-commerce enterprises to bear the risk of inventory backlog or pay high unit prices. Data shows that the global packaging printer market is expected to exceed $509.6 billion by 2031, with short form printing (less than 500 sheets) experiencing an annual growth rate of up to $18%, making it the fastest-growing segment.
