Globally, the market for labeling machines was worth USD 5.7 billion in 2018. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 7.0%) between 2019 and 2025. The market's growth will also be influenced by the existence of regulations regarding labeling and serialization.
Labeling machines can print, dispense, or apply labels to packaging containers made of different materials, including aluminum, and plastic. These machines can also be used to apply labels at point-of-sale and display points. They are used to market, decorate, or give valuable information to customers about the product or brand. They are used to differentiate products and maintain brand visibility.
In 2018, the U.S. held the largest market share in North America's labeling machines market. The U.S. market's largest revenue share was held by the pressure sensitive labelers technology segment in 2018. It is expected to continue its dominance in the future. The segment of sleeves labelers technology is expected to grow at the fastest rate between 2019 and 2025.
Consumers want more product variety and a wider selection of products. This has led to an increase in the number of products that are manufactured and marketed. It also increases the production complexity. Product manufacturers are looking for flexible labeling machines that can accommodate a wide range of materials and multiple technologies to meet these challenges.
Market growth will be further fueled by rising demand for simple, accurate, fast, and simple labels. The market for labeling machines will also be driven by the growing e-commerce sector due to factors such as convenience, choice, cost benefits, and price. The labeling machines are used to dispense labels and barcodes on different cartons and packages within the e-commerce industry.

Labels also protect against tampering and ensure that products arrive at their destination without any interruption. These machines will be in high demand due to rising demand for security labels to prevent theft and fraud.
In terms of technology, the market for labeling machines has been classified into pressure sensitive/self-adhesive labelers, glue-based labelers, sleeve labelers, and others. Pressure sensitive/self-adhesive labelers emerged as the dominant technology segment in 2018. Pre-glued labels mounted on a reel are applied to containers using heat or liquid glue in pressure sensitive labelers.
The glue-based labelers technology segment will grow at a 5.4% CAGR over the forecast period. This includes hot melt glue and wet glue labels. Wet glue labels are used to attach labels to rigid containers using liquid glue at room temperature. Hot melt glue labelers apply labels to containers with solid glue that has been melted right before application.
The fastest-growing technology segment in the forecast period is expected to be sleeves labelers. There are two types of sleeves labelers: stretch sleeve and shrink sleeve. Because they can be used to label the entire body, shrink sleeves are becoming more popular. This allows for maximum brand visibility and promotion. These labelers are also able to apply labels to containers with complex or uneven contours.
Print and applies labeling machines, in-mold labels machines and others technology are examples of the other technology segment. The machines are equipped with information such as batch number and weight. These details are then printed on labels and attached to containers.
The market can be divided into several segments, including beverages, pharmaceuticals and personal care. In 2018, the market was dominated by beverages. The global beverage market is expected to grow due to rising disposable income, growing population and a rising trend towards the consumption of healthy drinks.

The highest rate of growth for the pharmaceuticals end-use sector is expected to be over the forecast period. Market growth is expected to be influenced by factors such as the increasing number of people with various diseases and their aging population. The demand for these machines will also be boosted by the adoption of regulations by various government agencies with the aim to standardize pharmaceutical packaging and labeling.
The chemical end-use market segment will see significant growth through 2025 due to increased chemical production in developing countries and strict regulations regarding the packaging and labeling chemicals. The market's growth will be influenced by standards such as the Classification, Labelling and Packaging regulation (CLP), and the Hazard Communication Standard.
Asia Pacific was the dominant region in the global labeling machine market with a 41.6% revenue share in 2018. It is expected to maintain its dominance for the forecast period. The demand for labeling machines is driven by the presence of emerging economies like China and India, growing populations, rising disposable income, and an expanding food and beverage industry.
The North American market will likely experience the fastest growth over the forecast period. The growth of e-commerce, particularly in the U.S., combined with the adoption standards and regulations regarding labeling, serialization and tracing will have a positive effect on regional market growth. Market growth will be fueled by regulations like the Drug Quality and Security Act and Fair Packaging and Labeling Act.
