LAMINATED LABELS MARKET ANALYSIS

One of the key challenges currently being faced by players in the laminated labels market is the stringent regulations imposed by various regulatory bodies. Regulations regarding product labeling differ significantly across countries and regions. For example, the European Union has strict rules around the labeling of food products as compared to North America. Meeting these diverse regulatory standards across markets requires significant effort and huge investments from brand owners and label manufacturers. The frequent changes in regulations also add to the compliance costs. With regulations becoming increasingly stringent with respect to material usage, print quality, and information to be provided, it is becoming a daunting task for manufacturers to keep themselves updated with the dynamic regulatory landscape. This regulatory heterogeneity across markets poses operational and compliance challenges for companies operating in the global laminated labels market.

Market Opportunities: Growing demand from consumer durables industry

The consumer durables industry has been witnessing significant growth over the past few years. As disposable incomes rise and customers spend more on assets that facilitate their everyday lives, the demand for home appliances, consumer electronics, furnishings, and other domestic items is surging steadily. This growing demand from the consumer durables segment presents a major opportunity for the laminated labels market to expand its product offerings and clientele. Laminated labels are extensively used in the consumer appliances industry for labeling raw materials and components during the manufacturing process as well as the finished products on the shelves. The detailed product information, specifications, barcode, price, etc. laminated on techniques papers or films offer durability and longevity. They protect the labels from damage and ensure the printed details remain intact and readable until the customer uses the product. As consumer durable manufacturers ramp up production volumes to match rising demand, their requirement for long-lasting labels that can withstand various stages of production, storage, logistics and retail is also surging consistently.
