Security Printing Market Competitive Landscape and Forecasts 2028
Security Printing Industry Overview
The global security printing market size was valued at USD 2.94 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.9% from 2021 to 2028.
Security printing is used in the printing of items that necessitate authentication such as stock certificates, postage stamps, banknotes, identity cards, product authentication, and passports. Security printing comprises intaglio printing, holograms, special paper, copying marks, micro-printing, security threads, anti-magnetic inks, watermarks, and serial numbers. Security printing is used to avoid illegal activities such as forgery, counterfeiting, and tempering. Various computer systems to some extent depend on secure printing to assure important aspects of protection. Many software products obtain protection against forgery by using holographic stickers that are designed to tear when detached from the package. Therefore, the implementation of security measures is essential to assure the user that the item has not been altered after leaving the manufacturing or packing unit, which can be undertaken by security printing.

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has substantially impacted the overall global economy and, consequently, the security printing industry. Initially, Europe and the Asia Pacific were some of the worst affected regions in terms of the number of COVID-19 patients across the globe. Further, the situation worsened in the U.S. as well. Due to the rapid spread of the virus, the governments issued an order for the complete lockdown of some key cities. The complete lockdown affected the production of security printing manufacturers. This is attributed to the labor shortage and the complete disruption of logistics and supply chain in the nation. The halt in the production of security printers and their components is hindering the overall market growth in the first and second quarters of 2020.
