The printing industry is subject to continual transformations — from technological advances and changing customer expectations, to economic pressures and shifts in demand. In this dynamic context, there was a clear need for a tool that would systematically track and document the industry’s evolution. That’s where Printing Report comes in.
By creating this report, the authors sought to provide regular, structured insight into the sector’s performance. Over successive editions, Printing Report enables comparisons across time — helping to identify long-term trends, underlying shifts in market structure, and emerging developments.
Importantly, the report was expanded to include aspects of education and vocational training — reflecting the understanding that the future of printing strongly depends on the availability of skilled labour and ongoing professional development.
Thus, Printing Report was established to be more than just a snapshot of current conditions — it aims to be a strategic tool for planning, forecasting, and understanding what it takes to succeed in the evolving world of printing.
