Impastato—There is a dual threat by the higher growth being seen in developing countries. First, the potential of printed product being brought in from overseas to supply the domestic market. Distance, time, and transportation cost can somewhat moderate this threat, but for some products the threat is real, and it is occurring now. A good example is the grocery sack market. A few years ago domestic printers were forced to go to court and get relief through an anti-dumping tariff because foreign printers were illegally undercutting domestic pricing.
