Ink additives are the chemical substances that are used in small quantities in printing ink formulations. They are commonly water-based or solvent-based, depending on the technology. Ink additives enhance the performance of the ink and printing by acting as dispersants, wetting agents, defoamers, and driers. They are added at the time of formulation or on the press side. The defoamers are commonly used during the pigment milling, ink manufacturing, and printing processes. The dispersants are used for improved color development and increased mill output.
The packaging application led the ink additives market in 2017. The Brazilian, Russian, Indian and Chinese (BRIC) markets accounted for around 30% of the demand for global packaging in the same year. Packaging sales in the emerging markets are expected to show growth as both, increased consumption and demand for consumer goods drives the need for more sophisticated packaging due to the growing disposable incomes in the regions. Flexible packaging is gaining popularity among the consumers owing to its convenience and easy handling technique. Flexible packaging is used across the food & beverage industry and for cigarette packaging. Growing online purchase is also expected to positively impact the demand for corrugated boxes and boards and further impact the demand for ink additives.
The Asia-Pacific region accounted for the largest share of the global ink additives market in 2017. Growing demand for flexographic printing inks in the packaging industry for corrugated containers, flexible packaging, folding cartons, labels and tags, and metal cans are driving the ink additives market in the Asia-Pacific region. South America is projected to grow at the second highest rate after the Asia-Pacific region during the forecast period.
