Pettifor—The growth in offshore printing of packaging is a concern to all ink makers. Some of this growth has been fueled by cost advantages due to cheaper raw materials and labor. Now, however, ink components can be sourced from anywhere in the world. The biggest concern is that product manufacturing is moving overseas and, consequently, the package printing is, too. As a global ink manufacturer, Sun Chemical is seeing its sales rise in these developing markets also.
