Printing and Printing Equipment Industries Association of China (PEIAC) has said it expects Chinese printing to develop rapidly with an expected annual rate of 8% in the coming years.
The national trade association held a conference at Drupa on 2 June, where it highlighted print trends: digitising, diversification, speed to market and networking.
Wang Demao, vice chairman of PEIAC, said he expected to see rapid development in digital and inkjet printing in China.
For over a decade, he said Chinese print had been experiencing a tremendous period of growth, peaking at around 10% annually.
According to the association's statistics, the total turnover of China's printing industry reached RMB 440bn (£32.5bn) in 2007. It is said to employ around 3.9m people spread across 100,000 printing businesses.
