Frequently Asked Questions
The market includes Digimarc Corporation, Avery Dennison Corporation, CCL Industries Inc., ProAmpac LLC, Wipak Group, Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd. (DNP), among others.
The main opportunities lie in next-generation barcode standards that combine identification, serialization and recycling data in one code, along with expanding digital customs and brand protection enforcement in emerging markets outside Europe and North America.
The key growth factor is packaging waste regulation combined with brand protection needs against counterfeiting, which is converting digital watermarking from a voluntary brand feature into a measurable compliance and authentication requirement for converters and brand owners.
By watermark type, the Invisible Barcode segment dominated the market with approximately 58.60% share in 2025, supported by its ability to carry sorting data across an entire package surface without altering existing brand artwork.
Europe dominated the market with approximately 36.40% share in 2025, supported by coordinated recycling-sorting initiatives and binding packaging waste rules.
