How Are New Trends Expected To Influence The Growth Of The Rotogravure Printing Ink Market?
Leading corporations in the rotogravure printing ink industry are adopting Sustainable Print Quality (SPQ) technology, incorporating rotogravure printing to lessen their environmental footprint. This is achieved through a reduction in ink and solvent utilization and the enhancement of print quality, thus providing more eco-friendly packaging solutions. SPQ technology pertains to novel printing procedures and strategies intended to upgrade the caliber of print outputs while limiting their environmental toll. For instance, Südpack Verpackungen GmbH & Co, a company based in Germany, integrated rotogravure printing into its SPQ technology in November 2023 to boost resource efficiency in packaging printing. The application of this technology substantively curtails ink and solvent use by standardizing the color gamut from ten to seven shades, accounting for an approximately 36.5% reduction in ink use for typical print dealings.
