The global printing industry is evolving quickly, and 2025 brings new opportunities for authors and publishers.
The first big trend is sustainability. FSC-certified paper, soy inks, and recycled packaging are becoming the new standard. Authors who emphasize eco-friendly production gain both credibility and market advantage.
Second, cross-border logistics are becoming simpler. With printers offering DDP shipping, customs headaches are reduced, making it easier for authors to serve readers worldwide.
Finally, premium editions are booming. Crowdfunding campaigns thrive on limited editions with foil stamping, embossing, and custom packaging. These extras transform a book into a collector’s item.
By staying ahead of these trends, authors and publishers can print smarter, deliver faster, and create books that readers truly value.
