The global demand for Thermal Transfer Ribbon Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% under the study period 2022 - 2028.
Thermal transfer ribbon is a polyester film coated with different layers: back layer, base PET film, release, and ink. The ink layer is transferred to the label thanks to the heat delivered by the thermal head of the thermal printer. It is thermal-transfer printing material applied to paper or some other substrate to stay glued. It contrasts with direct thermal printing, where no ribbon is present in the process. Thermal transfer printing is a fast and clean process with no warm-up or cooling time required. Using a thermal transfer ribbon, the print is perfect from the start to the end of a roll, making it the standard for producing on-demand barcodes and variable information labels.
Market Dynamics
The global thermal transfer ribbon market will show promising growth in the next eight years. Rising demand for informative packaging across various end-user industries, expanding manufacturing and retail sector, increasing & changing packaging requirements, increasing technological usage, and surge in demand for smudge resistive and high-definition tags and labels. Thermal transfer printing is a popular print process specially used for the printing of identification labels. It is the most broadly used printing process in the world for the printing of high-quality barcodes. Spurring counterfeit products, the growing importance of product authentication, and brand protection are fuelling the market growth. Thermal transfer printing offers long life, fade in direct sunlight, more heat tolerance, availability of colored ribbons, a longer print head life, and a wide selection of labels to choose from. However, the availability of other printing technology hampers the market growth.
