Methodology

All the sections, by end-use industry, printer type and region, evaluate the present scenario and growth prospects of the thermal printing market for the period 2015–2025. We have considered 2014 as the base year and provide data for the trailing 12 months.

To calculate the thermal printing market size, we have considered revenue generated from the sales of thermal printers. The forecast presented here assesses the total revenue by value across the thermal printing market. In order to offer an accurate forecast, we started by sizing the current market, which forms the basis of how the thermal printing market would develop in the future. Given the characteristics of the market, we triangulated the outcome of three different types of analysis, based on supply side, consumer spending and the economic envelope. However, forecasting the market in terms of various thermal printing segments, and regions is more a matter of quantifying expectations and identifying opportunities rather than rationalising them after the forecast has been completed.

It is imperative to note that in an ever-fluctuating global economy, we not only conduct forecasts in terms of CAGR, but also analyse the market on the basis of key parameters such as year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth to understand predictability of the market and identify the right opportunities across the thermal printing market. All the sub-segments are analysed in terms of Basis Point Share (BPS) to understand individual segments' relative contributions to overall market growth. This detailed level of information is important for identification of various key trends prevalent in the thermal printing market.

Another key feature of this report is the analysis of all key thermal printing segments, sub-segments and regional adoption and revenue forecast in terms of absolute dollar value. This is traditionally overlooked while forecasting the market. However, absolute dollar opportunity is critical for assessing the level of opportunity that a provider can look to achieve, as well as identify potential resources from a sales and delivery perspective in the thermal printing market.

To understand key growth segments in terms of growth and adoption of thermal printing across regions, Future Market Insights developed the Thermal Printing Market Attractiveness Index. The resulting index should help providers identify real market opportunities.
