The United States Printing Industry (PIA) recently conducted a comprehensive study of the North American printing industry from now to the future of 2006. The PIA has already done three such reports. The first two reports are the "2000 in the printing industry" of 1990 and the "digital future" in 1994, which have proved to be milestones in the printing industry. The name of this report is "Vision for the 21st Century - The Printing Industry Redefined 21st Century". This report has five forward-thinking suppliers: Georgia-Pacific, Heidelberg, Impresse, Kodak Polaroid Imaging, and Sun Chemicals. Company participation. The center content is that the printing industry has entered the sixth century since Gutenberg. The revolutionary changes of the past allowed the printing industry to redefine the role of its own industry. In the new century, the printing industry should be an integral part of the multimedia digital world.
This research report mentions the main forces that will shape the future of this industry in the next three to six years, and the influence of these forces on different types of printing. This report explains three important aspects affecting the printing industry:
· Factors that increase demand;
· Destruction of demand factors;
· The printing industry is necessary and relevant.
Today's printers face the challenges of three simultaneous stages:
· The overall economic environment resulting from the rapidly changing and expanding North American economy.
• The multimedia advertising and communications environment requires new uses of advertising and new printing methods to effectively communicate to customers.
New technologies and improved technologies enable the printing industry to meet the challenges of the printing market.
The future is an exciting and challenging era for the printing industry. It is like the North American economy provides space for its development and change. New multimedia challenges the traditional communications industry. Improved printing technology has changed the face of printing. This report also includes:
• Further investigate the challenges and changes faced by printers in the next three to six years, including within the industry and the markets they serve.
• Let the printing company find the application of this report to the industry.
These parts provide the printing industry with tools to make its own corporate plans and strategies to make better decisions in the upcoming new century.
Economic and printing industry growth
No company exists in a vacuum. There are numerous factors that affect costs, prices, product demand, and supply. The printing industry is no exception. In its production environment, paper prices, electricity bills, labor conditions, and capital costs affect the bottom line. Changes in new printing technologies, new advertising media, new methods of managing companies, and printed products The strength of the buying industry affects the on-line.
In the ten years of sustained growth, the U.S. economy has been in its longest period of economic growth in its recorded history. However, there are already some signs that growth is slowing.
The Federal Reserve tries to control inflation and avoid putting the United States into recession. There are signs that its strategy still works.
In the first year after the first tightening of the Federal Reserve, there was a marked slowdown in the economy. The report believes that the Federal Reserve has the ability to control the situation and reduce growth without killing it.
Throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, printing sales closely followed the growth of the national economy, and even took a little faster step. However, in 1991, the two began to separate and the printing industry’s sales began to fall below the growth of the national economy. As the printing industry, this decline may be hardly noticeable because the industry’s annual tax revenue increases by 4-5% (commercial Printed numbers). However, the national economy has grown by 5-6% annually.
In the next decade, the growing economy continues to drive the entire printing industry, but the growth of the printing industry is still slower than the overall economic growth rate.
The powerful U.S. economy provides the U.S. printing industry with many opportunities for growth, but it is also in a highly competitive environment.
Printing: An integral part of the multimedia world.
Printing has many functions: providing information, selling, documenting, entertainment, and education. In today’s multimedia environment, certain parts of the Internet, television, radio, and print that can implement these functions can be implemented individually or combined with other media. In this report, PIA strives to find a place for printing in this new multimedia environment.
Taking into account the importance of printing in this link, because the buyers of print also come into contact with all other media, taking into account that print can provide face-to-face benefits, when determining the share of the media budget, they will decide to adopt printing. It is these decisions, coupled with the growing North American economy, that ultimately determine the composition of the printing market and the printing industry in the next three to six years.
Some printing markets will progress slightly faster in the next three to six years, but all sectors of the market have opportunities and face challenges.
General commercial printing and printing
The commercial printing and rapid printing department in this industry will have fairly steady tax growth over the next six years. The output of the printing industry in general commercial printing and rapid printing will increase by 4.7% before 2003 and will increase by 4.6% between 2004 and 2006. The favorable factors for general commercial printing and rapid printing in the next 6 years are the economic growth, the growth of SMEs and internal printing companies. The main unfavorable factor is the gradual acceptance of color copiers, and the growth of electronic business-to-business communications.
The main information of the printing factory in this field is:
• Changes in the industry structure, rather than changes in product requirements, pose greater challenges to today's small commercial printing and quick printing.
· The shift of chain stores to the traditional printing market has greatly changed the printing industry, which is very different from the way restaurants and hardware industries have switched to chain stores.
The ever-growing economy supports the environment of the chain (and not all) of small stores that are managed by some homes today.
· To be on the edge, printers need to find niches and priorities in areas where they are good at.
Direct sales printing
Direct sales printing includes direct mailing and newspaper inserts. Direct mail and inserts should maintain a stable print share for the next six years. The output of the printing plant will increase by 4.5% annually in 2003 and will increase by 3.7% from 2004 to 2006. Factors favoring direct mailings and inserts are: They can provide advertisers with powerful products that pull customers into their business.
In addition, many industries and companies rely on direct mailings and inserts as initial advertising media, hoping to see significant growth over the next few years. The downside is that the Internet and other new communications technologies are also developing.
Some of the key messages of the direct mailing and insert printing industry over the next 6 years include:
• Perhaps most important, direct mail printing will be an extension of digital image management. This will make readers more effective and more targeted.
• The direct mailing industry will benefit from Internet start-up company's spending on building brand names in the next six years.
· In the year 20003, the direct mailing industry began to encounter strong competition from electronic media (such as direct e-mail and the Internet/TV), which would slow the growth of the industry. New technologies for printing Internet sites on direct mail pages using watermarks and bar codes will help slow down the process.
• Printers need to determine when they will adopt new devices, such as personalization or customization.
• Providing purposeful services can push printers up on technology/knowledge ladders, push them to higher value-added services, and have the potential to win higher profits.
Product sample and directory printing
Prints of products (calalogs) and directories (Directories) face different prospects in the next three to six years. The printing income of product samples will increase by 5.3% from 2000 to 2003, and will increase by 5.4% from 2004 to 2006. Directory printing will be more affected by electronic alternatives and will increase by 2.8% from 2000 to 2003. It will increase by 2.5% from 2004 to 2006.
The challenges and opportunities to face in this area are very harsh.
Although the Internet can provide new printing services, printers must also understand that such new media may have potential negative effects on the printing of paper-based product samples and names.
It is estimated that the Internet will account for 10% of total retail sales in the United States in 2002, which was almost zero in 1998. The retail environment grasped in the longer term will be the Internet, paper media product catalogs, and retail outlets that will provide services to their customers. However, the printing industry also needs to go through a run-in period. New technologies for printing Internet sites on product catalogs with watermarks or bar codes should help this sector.
Printers are particularly suited to partnering with Internet-based companies as they strive to create successful paper production. In the area of ​​increasing professional retail product samples, the printing industry can provide important variable printing services to help retailers take advantage of customer data.
Increasing paper, mailing, and distribution costs will cause publishers of product catalogs and directories to recalculate the range of page costs and circulation, allowing more product samples to enter the field of variable printing with higher returns.
Magazines and Journals
Magazines and periodicals have long been one of the most successful sectors of printing. In the coming years, the production of print magazines and periodicals will grow steadily. From 2000 to 2003, the output of printed journals will increase by 5.6% annually. From 2004 to 2006, it will be somewhat slower and will increase by 5.0% annually.
In the next 6 years, several factors are expected to increase the demand for magazines and journals, including:
· With further specialization in the topic selection, the new magazine has a special interest in the Internet and will continue to grow in the advertising industry.
· Electronic publishing, loss of unique sales revenue, advertising on the Internet, increasing control of newsstand profits, and possible increase in postage.
The magazines and periodical printers will focus on a few points in the following years. This is the key to success:
· The ability to issue and print.
· For population, customization, and personalization.
· Become part of the publishing process.
· The ability to develop electronic images has the opportunity to repurpose journal content.
Business Form
The output of commercial forms has declined over the years. The output of commercial forms will decline by 5.7% per year from 2000 to 2003, and will drop by 3.5% per year from 2004 to 2006. The slowdown reflects the fact that core products are more irreplaceable than Electronic Products.
The shift in business form printing has provided the industry with examples of how to adapt to changes such as textbooks. Commercial printing in other sectors can review the countermeasures adopted in the past 10 years from commercial form printers and distributors. These printing companies can usually successfully enter the relevant document management service market or other printing market sectors.
Electronic means are available alternatives to many types of printed products, especially the increase in transactional documents and legal and legislative records. The printers of these products need to continue to redefine how their companies face such substitutions in the coming years. At present, the United States has approved electronic signatures, which helps to accelerate the use of such alternatives for certain applications.
Form printers have many creative strategies that can increase the lifespan of this declining market segment. These efforts need to actively cooperate with customers and carry out reforms to meet the needs of users.
This research report mentions the main forces that will shape the future of this industry in the next three to six years, and the influence of these forces on different types of printing. This report explains three important aspects affecting the printing industry:
· Factors that increase demand;
· Destruction of demand factors;
· The printing industry is necessary and relevant.
