(Order online) (Read the Contents PDF of the Report)

Report written in partnership with Jan Fineman, former-CEO of Xaar Plc, an industrial inkjet printhead manufacturing and technology licencing company. The report has also been read and commented upon by Mike Willis, Managing Director at Pivotal Resources.

The report covers global product identification (coding and marking) and graphic communications sectors, and has a bonus short case study on electronics by inkjet.
Jan Fineman has many years direct board and management level industry experience and he is partnered with CIR in setting up industry market research calls with all key industry players in (non-SOHO/commercial) OEM graphics (globally worth more than $0.9 billion in 2003) and all coding & marking inkjet equipment and inks (globally worth more than $1.3 billion in 2003), and providing other inputs to the report.

Justin Hayward is a former analyst of Deutsche Bank, London and has been managing CIR Ltd, an independent company, since 2001.

The report has a financial perspective: we are collecting data which enables a clear analysis of fit between companies in the market and new entrants at an M&A, JV or partnership level.

Along with competitor analysis, we believe this approach is unique in industrial inkjet at present. The report is made economical compared to single-client advice as we are offering it to investors and companies enabling pricing economies.

There is also an Appendix of Companies available separately or with the report. Please contact CIR for more details or fill in the form below. This takes in interviews with global companies, and information taken in from Drupa in 2004.
Justin also delivered a talk on "Inkjet: Now on the Radar Screens of Investors" at the 12th European Ink Jet Printing Conference.
