Conventionally, large format printing is applied to outdoor advertising and sign board. But the demand has been reduced dramatically as the government's regulation for outdoor advertising was reinforced with the recession. To enhance the bad situation, shops try to move to other areas to create the demands and new items.
Among the new areas, interior and textile got the spotlight. Recently, large format printing is being applied with customized systems even though interior were already applied before. Wall, ceiling, pillar, floor, etc. are emerging as places to create new demands for large format printing.
Textile has been also applied in large format printing with the name of banner for years, it is widening with finishing process. Digital textile printing is leading the digitalization of the textile printing as it takes a part of digital printing. Finishing process system after printing on textile is one of the digital textile printing. Therefore, there are high possibilities to share between digital printing and digital textile printing market.
The reason why the digital textile printing is focused is because it is eco-friendly as it reduces wastewater dramatically. It is closely linked with the regulation that the government strongly drives with 'Green Growth' campaign.

There is a trend of printing service, so called one-stop shopping, in digital printing industry. Production method is being changed from mass production to multi products - less production.

Customers can find everything they want and shops can also provide various services easily. So one-stop printing service will be continue.
