The Future for UV-Curable Inkjet Printing Systems
The future of UV-Curable Inkjet Printers is extraordinary. CAP Ventures’ research indicates the large format UV-curable inkjet printer market will likely grow from just a few hundred units shipped in 2002 to over 1,400 units in 2007, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 56%. Recently introduced and soon-to-be introduced mid-volume units at lower price points will help propel the UV- curable inkjet hardware market into fantastic growth rates over the next few years.
The largest applications for large-format graphics printing continue to be retail or point of purchase (POP), and tradeshow graphics. Other applications that are expanding through use of these systems include outdoor graphics, rigid signage, packaging, white goods, corrugated and rigid packaging, wall murals, exhibition panels, banners, bus wraps, truck graphics, stage graphics, and customized wallpaper
