Packaging itself will experience a significant transformation over the next few years as digital printing rises from niche applications and becomes the norm for packaging converters of all types. Digital printing is improving workflow, enabling innovative marketing and getting products to market faster than ever now.
In 2016 digital print is taking a firm grasp of the market as brand owners across the world invest significant resource and money into planning their digital packaging strategies. The technology now exists to create high quality packaging on a variety of substrates on digital presses. This year will see more digitally printed packaging on retail shelves than ever before.
The challenge still facing the brand owner community in 2016 is how they leverage this technology to drive profit from innovative marketing campaigns, how to use the power of digital print to build stronger relationships with their customers and how to gain loyalty from the new generation of shoppers.
Digital print engages customers. Digitally printed packaging, if harnessed correctly, has the ability to grab and hold people’s attention in a way no other media channel can offer. Using technology such as Augmented Reality, QR codes and web-to-print solutions provide value alongside benefits such as short-runs and shorter lead times which give faster routes to market and the ability to react quickly to ever changing market conditions.
