Print this Article | Send to Colleague
Demand for tissue paper converting machines is directly dependent on the demand for tissue paper products. Global sales of tissue paper converting machines was valued at $1,123.8 million in 2016, and is expected to reach $1,912.6 million by the end of 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Future Market Insights, Valley Cottage, N.Y., USA, titled Tissue Paper Converting Machines Market: Global Industry Analysis (2012 - 2016) and Opportunity Assessment (2017 - 2027).
Investment in new machinery to support brand building and evolution of automation and technology are two primary reasons that are responsible for the growth of the global tissue paper converting machines market.
As analyzed in the report, global tissue paper converting machines market trends include:
- Advancement in rewinding technology to enhance the pace of tissue paper conversion and reduction in waste
- Preference of customized machines over standard solutions
- Prevalence of low-end machines with low capacity levels in developing markets
- Growing implementation of data exchange technologies to incorporate high automation levels.
On the basis of system, the global tissue paper converting machines market is segmented into toilet rolls lines, kitchen rolls lines, tissue fold lines, paper napkin lines, and stand-alone systems. Toilet paper rolls account for more than half of the global tissue paper converting machines market, in which around 80% comprises the consumer market. In terms of value, the standalone segment accounts for 6.6% of the market share, while in terms of volume, it accounts for 10% of the global market. The small players of Asia Pacific generally incorporate very low capacity integrated converting lines that also cost much less than the machines generally used by large tissue paper products manufacturers of North America.
On the basis of operations, the global tissue paper converting machines market is segmented into fully automatic and semi-automatic. Due to low capital investment capability of small and regional tissue paper products manufacturers, the semi-automatic machines market accounts for around 10% of the global market. All of the folded tissues and paper napkin converting machines are automatic, while toilet rolls and kitchen rolls converting machines have wide variations in automation.
China and Europe are currently the dominant regions in the global tissue paper converting machines market. China is further estimated to increase its market share in the coming years. APECJ is the fastest growing region due to a large number of developing countries and increasing demand for tissue paper products. The entire Asia Pacific market is composed of a large number of small and regional manufacturers of tissue paper products, while North America accounts for the least number of manufacturers.
