(Weymouth, MA) July 16, 2007… Packaging is primarily a consumer-driven industry, with growth rates averaging 3% annually and total output product value in the range of $290 billion worldwide.

Research for this report was conducted via secondary sources as well as unstructured primary interviews with participants within the packaging and inkjet industries. The primary Web-based survey was administered via e-mail to buyers and influencers of packaging and printing equipment within packaging operations. Highlights of the document include:
