The
global barcode printers market is expected to reach USD
3.81 billion by 2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc.
Increased demand for mobile barcode printers is expected to drive market growth
over the forecast period. Implementation of bar-coded wristbands for personal
identification in hospitals and events has augmented the demand for mobile
barcode printers.
Growth
of organized retail stores worldwide has significantly driven the barcode
printers market, as products equipped with barcode tags enable faster and more

Further Key
Findings from the Study Suggest:
- Industrial printers dominated the barcode
printers market in 2013, accounting for over 60% of the overall revenue
share. Mobile printers are expected to witness high growth over the
forecast period owing to their ease of use and utility in numerous
field-based applications; they have been increasingly used by
organizations’ salespeople in order to conduct business and issue
authentic invoices and receipts irrespective of the time and place.
- Thermal technology based printers accounted for
over 60% of the market share as compared to their non-thermal
counterparts, primarily because of their reliability, high speed, low
noise and provision for easy cleaning. Among thermal technology based
printers, the direct thermal technology is expected to witness significant
growth over the forecast period owing to enhanced durability, low
operational costs and elimination of the need for disposing used ink
ribbons, making it more eco-friendly.
- Manufacturing applications led the market in
2013, accounting for over 35% of the overall revenue. Retail and
healthcare are expected to be lucrative fields for the barcode printers
market over the forecast period, with both projected to witness high
growth rates. In healthcare, barcode printers have been extensively used
for printing tags used in patient ID systems in order to prevent medical
errors by enabling access to accurate patient information for surgical
procedures and specimen collection.
- North America dominated the market in 2013,
accounting for over 40% of the overall revenue. Asia Pacific is expected
to witness high growth rate over the forecast period.
- The market has become increasingly consolidated
owing to significant mergers and acquisitions in order to achieve growth
across several product categories, verticals, and regions; for instance
Honeywell’s acquisition of Intermec and SATO’s acquisition of Argox.
Vendors have to deal with low profit margins owing to the highly
commoditized nature of the market.
