The Future of Global Printing to 2016

Global printing output was valued at $785 billion in 2010, growing by around 1% in comparison with 2009, when values fell by more than 5%. In the period to 2016, Pira anticipates growth in the order of 1-1.5% annually, albeit heavily concentrated in emerging and some transitional economies, with demand continuing to fall in mature markets as print comes under further pressure from electronic alternatives. The Future of Global Printing provides in-depth analysis of worldwide print markets broken down by print process, product and region, with forecasts to 2016. With analysis of the print industry in over 50 countries across the globe, this updated report is essential reading.
