In-plants are expanding the services they offer to increase their value.

This expansion has accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic as the demand for traditional applications like forms and manuals diminished, compelling in-plants to offer new varieties of signage and graphics.

These are some of the key findings of a new study conducted by In-plant Impressions that examines the changing world of in-house printing. Among the trends we observed:

• More than 80% of in-plant respondents now provide wide-format printing, which makes up 14% of their revenue, up from 9% two years ago.
• Contour cutting has shown the most impressive growth of any in-house service, with 35% of in-plants now providing it, compared with 26% in 2020.
• Floor graphics grew more than any other application during COVID, increasing 77% since 2020.
• 60% of in-plants now insource printing from outside their organizations, generating an average of 14% of their revenue this way.
• The industry is slowly recovering from COVID: 44% report print volumes are up and 40% say revenue has surpassed 2020 levels; 56% predict their 2022 revenues will rise even higher.
