Radiation Curable Inks Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type ( Ultraviolet (UV) Curable, Electron Beam (EB) Curable, Others ), By Application ( Printing & Publication, Automobiles, Packaging, Consumers, Others ) and regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Radiation curable inks are the inks that undergo chemical process in presence of radiations that dries the ink. These inks are easily adaptable to stereo lithography, decorating, coating and printing. These kind of ink are made so that they can replace the heat-setting inks that release volatile emissions that are toxic. The technological advancements in the processing techniques, chemicals used, and curing techniques has driven the market for radiation curable inks.

Increasing demand from end-use sectors like packaging, automotive, general manufacturing, and others attributed to various properties of the inks like low emission levels, taint-free properties, non-odorous nature, and resistance to humidity and oxygen shall drive the demand. Additionally, UV printed paper products can be recycled into lower grade paper if washed. The increasing use of radiation curing inks in flexography, screen printing, metal decoration, liquor boxes and packaging with specialty printing shall foster the market growth.

However, these technically advanced inks are slightly expensive than the conventional inks. They are manufactured using monomers, polymers, oligomers and others, which make them costlier. This is likely to hamper the market growth.
