Toner Market Shows Profitability, Despite Declining Profit Margins

Toner profit margins are falling steadily, consistent with the overall imaging industry. However, strong growth figures in shipment volume are expected to stem negative impact from declining margins, delivering positive revenue growth across the majority of the market.

Photizo Group’s recently released Imaging 360 Toner Forecast provides detailed insight into the toner market’s current state, as well as a view of emerging trends.

Toner cartridge shipments are expected to climb 6.2 percent CAGR through 2019, reaching 679.3 million. Revenue displays marginally less growth, due to downward trending average selling prices, at 5.8 percent CAGR through 2019, to $77.7 billion.
