PrintPack India is one of the most influential and important events for the printing and packaging industry. This year it is happening after the gap of 3 years, and it will be a great opportunity for the industry to come together as one team and discuss various topics that will help drive the future of the printing industry in this post-pandemic era. Canon India has been exhibiting at the show since 2011, and this time, it will be showcasing a digital production printer and wide-format inkjet printers in Hall 9, Stand G32.
Canon India expects huge footfall for PrintPack 2022
Speaking about the expectations from the event, Puneet Datta, senior director at Canon India said, “We at Canon India are very optimistic about the exhibition and look forward to displaying our innovative products that truly will disrupt the printing industry. We are expecting huge footfall from the entire sphere of the printing fraternity, whether digital, commercial or packaging. PrintPack has always given us great ROI, and this time also, we are hopeful for the same.”
“We foresee an increase in digital printing due to inherent advantages of flexibility and print on demand, an increase in investments from tier II, III & IV cities, and more investment in more reliable and sustainable print equipment than just low-value investments. In the future, print technologies that allow the user experience to be enriched and maybe blur the boundary between the print world and the digital world will see far greater adoption,” Datta concluded.
Note: The IPPGroup will be publishing the PrintPack India Show Daily on all five days of the event from 26 to 30 May 2022. Our May issues of Indian Printer and Publisher and Packaging South Asia will also contain previews of the event.
2023 promises an interesting ride for print in India
Indian Printer and Publisher founded in 1979 is the oldest B2B trade publication in the multi-platform and
multi-channel IPPGroup. While the print and packaging industries have been resilient in the past 33 months since the pandemic lockdown of 25 March 2020, the commercial printing and newspaper industries have yet to recover their pre-Covid trajectory.
The fragmented commercial printing industry faces substantial challenges as does the newspaper industry.
While digital short-run printing and the signage industry seem to be recovering a bit faster, ultimately
their growth will also be moderated by the progress of the overall economy. On the other hand book
printing exports are doing well but they too face several supply-chain and logistics challenges.
The price of publication papers including newsprint has been high in the past year while availability is diminished by several mills shutting down their publication paper and newsprint machines in the past four years. Indian paper mills are also exporting many types of paper and have raised prices for Indian printers. To some extent, this has helped in the recovery of the digital printing industry with its on-demand short-run and low-wastage paradigm.
Ultimately digital print and other digital channels will help print grow in a country where we are still far behind in our paper and print consumption and where digital is a leapfrog technology that will only increase the demand for print in the foreseeable future. For instance, there is no alternative to a rise in textbook consumption but this segment will only reach normality in the next financial year beginning on 1 April 2023.
Thus while the new normal is a moving target and many commercial printers look to diversification, we believe that our target audiences may shift and change. Like them, we will also have to adapt with agility to keep up with their business and technical information needs.
Our 2023 media kit is ready, and it is the right time to take stock and reconnect with your potential markets and customers. Print is the glue for the growth of liberal education, new industry, and an emerging economy. We seek your participation in what promises to be an interesting ride.
