Functional Printing is defined as deposition of a printable substance on a substrate that creates an active or passive functionality beyond traditional graphics. The resultant product would have unique features to sense or control the physical or chemical components. The Market report consists of detailed study on Functional Printing Market which is forecast between 2014 and 2020 based on several segments including type of materials, deposition techniques, coating, applications and geography.
Functional Printing has facilitated the production functional printed components and systems through the development of roll-to-roll (R2R) processing. Several printing techniques such as Inkjet, Screen and Gravure Printing have been utilized to a great extent in print and graphics industry. The usage of R2R processing allows the print and graphics industry allows high volume production. As the functional printing solution and service providers continue to research and develop R2R technology to expand its capability to manufacture variety of electronic components and devices, the market for functional printing will remain robust and strong in the future.
